narcissistic, narcissist.
nar·cis·sism [ nrssə sìzzəm ]
- self-admiration: excessive self-admiration and self-centeredness
- personality disorder: in psychiatry, a personality disorder characterized by the patient's overestimation of his or her own appearance and abilities and an excessive need for admiration.
I would never tell a narcissist that they are one. I will tell them they are intelligent, beautiful, whatever turns their crank. Then I would run away as far away as my pretty legs can take me.

They are oblivious to reality. They live in a bubble and filter out or twist any information that is negative. Like jgnat says Run!

You know, that narcissist that I "took care of" in the old office, found her a nice workstation far, far away from everyone else for her "privacy", she latches on to me at any public event (I'm talking hugs) and has even tried to "friend" me on facebook. She misses me so, so much....

Good love is hard to find...but there was too much " Naccistic Personality Disorder" in my congregation...and pretend love is as bad as a pretend religion...even if you feel your on the verge of discovering something wonderful.

A narcissist hogged every moment of a womans' weekend church retreat. She talked endlessly about her favorite subject - which of course was herself, her likes and dislikes problems and victories, every waking moment for the entire weekend. Finally at supper on Sunday evening, the retreat leader interrupted her right in the middle of one of her self appraisals and frankly told her that she should stop talking about herself. There was a seemingly awkward silence for a split second before she responded. "I see" she said thoughtfully as she gazed on the group,"that's fine with me......so then what do you all think of me?"

Yea...but its calling a spade a spade. My first encounter with my " narcissic" was wonderful, then stage two a different person...
I researched it, but still feel guilty the messy way i ended it. I am not often right...
