They believe they are superior to everyone else and that people should feel fortunate to be near them. Exposure is undesired, disgusting, and simply not acceptable to the narcissist, but it doesn’t mean you can’t go on if you have to. They become threatened when you expose them, and a narcissist will withdraw. When you begin being stubborn, not desiring what they do.
A try to ignore a narcissist is a replay of his inner child’s chief wound. The narcissist will lose his narcissistic source of admiration that they are so starved for. As a consequence, the narcissist becomes rejected, betrayed, and ostracized, and his already poor sense of self will be greatly impacted.
Narcissists will get manipulative to win you back. They’ll spoil, flatter, blackmail, blame, threaten, physically or verbally abuse, lash out, gaslight, punish, lie, and try to woo you with promises.
The narcissist will be apologizing or love-bombing you in a bid to capture the attention they desire, and if they cannot even manage to command your attention on those terms because you’re too much, they will get bored, leave eventually, and go find some other source.
Number 2: When you set boundaries.
Never let the narcissist in your life define you. You have a choice about who you are. Narcissists are masters at defining you, and most time, negatively. Never let any narcissistic definition of you stand. It might be your looks, personality, intelligence, or anything else. Make a concerted effort to define yourself instead. You will get abused when you establish boundaries with a narcissist.
