A narcissist in a figurative sense is called a narcissistic, selfish person who has a very high opinion of himself. Getting along with him is not an easy task, but with love and patience, it is quite real.
Instructions
Step 1
According to the ancient Greek myth, once a beautiful young man Narcissus saw his reflection in a forest stream and it seemed to him indescribably beautiful. The young man literally fell in love with himself, lost peace and sleep. He could not take his eyes off his own face, reflected in the water. The result of the myth is sad: Narcissus died, and a beautiful flower, named after him, blossomed at the place of his death.
Step 2
The narcissist needs admiration, admiration, like a flower of the same name - in sunlight and watering. He needs to constantly feel himself in the spotlight. Not receiving this, he will suffer, get angry, take out a bad mood on others. But the narcissist can become even more angry if he suspects that the words of approval, admiration are insincere. Therefore, the partner of such a person will have to show patience, indulgence, as well as outstanding acting skills. Praise should sound convincing.
Step 3
Arguing with a narcissist is a thankless and almost hopeless endeavor. After all, he either sincerely considers himself the highest authority in any matter, or is too proud and complacent to admit his own wrong. Therefore, a loved one, who wants to insist on his own, should not enter into an argument with the narcissist, but skillfully lead him to the idea that he himself wants to do just that.
Step 4
It is necessary to carefully study the habits, tastes of the narcissist so as not to cause conflict situations. Since any actions or words of a partner that run counter to his tastes and habits, the narcissist is not only able to elevate to the rank of a universal tragedy, but also sees this as a manifestation of demonstrative disrespect for him. With all the ensuing consequences, for example, reproaches, quarrels.
Step 5
The narcissist absolutely does not tolerate criticism, even the most careful, delicate and fair. After all, he considers himself a model of perfection, an ideal, but can an ideal be mistaken in something? Therefore, the narcissist's partner should leave thoughts of how to somehow influence him, change, re-educate him. You should either come to terms with his shortcomings, or decisively and quickly part.
Step 6
In short, living with a narcissist is hard work and a very dubious pleasure. But it is not for nothing that it is said that love works wonders. If a partner is satisfied with such a loved one, narcissistic, selfish and very vulnerable, then he sees in him advantages, not disadvantages.
