It is not the $'s but the spiritual power !

some other signs to spot a narcissist: -lack of empathy for other's suffeting or bad fortune. -watch their reaction when you establish boundaries or say NO, the most powerful word in the english language -they will always one-up whatever story you tell them. for example if you had a serious sickness, they will make their cold sound like it was a life-threatening condition. -watch how they treat people who are "below" them or have nothing to offer. -a narcissist's words will almost never match their actions. cheers from southern ontario, canada 🍁

The narcissist I know makes a point to give a dollar to the same homeless guy on the street. Give cans to the 80 year old housekeeper next door. Same person who takes 4 local papers to get as many of the discount coupons as possible… but interpersonally 1 on 1 she’s bored to tears if not high status or offer giveaways like very expensive wine etc…every weekend throwing somebody’s “birthday” party with lots of toasts. I clearly don’t measure up even though I have a birthday every year too. Furious at my being no longer willing to share my feelings with her anymore. Collecting data on people like an interrogation is another sign of a narcissist. They use info to justify themselves for dismissive behavior, smear campaigns and how to hurt/manipulate people. Not safe.

There are many different signs. These include spending time on phone that was not spent previously, withholding sex from you, withdrawing in communication with you, agitation or anger over Petty stuff or making up situations to get angry or agitated over, lying, being secretive in any way, randomly spending more time caring for and pampering oneself such as putting on makeup or wearing cologne or coloring hair etc. Any type of changed behavior that is not aimed at pleasing or benefiting your relationship. With all of that though, follow your gut. your gut is telling you that something isn't right and it's telling you that this could or is happening, therefore listen to it. Just Free yourself from all of it! Run and don't look back. Go 100% no contact. The mental and emotional abuse is not okay at all! Do not bring anything up to her. Don't try to rationalize or have a conversation about anything. Don't let her know that you know she's in narcissist. All of that can cause a narcissistic rage. If you have not yet witnessed one of those just trust me that you don't want to! A narcissistic rage is beyond any rage I have ever seen or witnessed in my entire life. I am an army combat veteran and served front lines for a year and afghanistan. I have abuse going back from as long as I can remember, the first time in my personal memory is 2 years old. With everything I have been involved in, and my rape, other sexual abuse, their physical abuse, etc in narcissistic rage is by far the worst! If you need to contact your local police department and start a new contact order. No one can protect you like you can! free yourself from it all and move forward in your life. The minute you run and go no contact is the minute your life begins again. If need be seek out professional help. Therapy is the best thing I did for myself. The best gift I gave to me! The abuse is so deep and overwhelming that having a professional guide you through the steps of the healing process is extremely beneficial! Just remember, there is great strength in asking for help. There is great lack and strength or no strength at all in putting on a mask and hiding behind the opinions of society and pretending that you are okay! As human beings we all witness A Time In our lives where we are not okay! Those that heal, move past, and move forward, and have a brighter future are those who ask for help and do the work that is needed through the help! I'm so sorry you are going through this and I wish you the very best! Good luck! Always remember that you are stronger than you believe you are, you are worthy and deserving of better and always, and you are enough just the way you are and who you are today! Take this time for you! Get yourself again. Fix that meal that you're all time favorite, rent that movie you've been wanting to see, have a guys night out with your best friends, remodel a room in your home, go purchase that item you've been wanting to for so long, just do for yourself! Self-acceptance, self-love, and being able to forgive yourself is far more important than what anyone else can give to you! Believe in who you are! You deserve nothing less than that! You're not alone! Feel free to tag me in any other questions that you have! I'll help if I can. Additionally you can hire a cyber expert to help you get remote access to their phone so you can track them and monitor all of their activities without them knowing.

I don't know why but in starting 4 I don't even recognize the demon that I deal with , but have strong spiritual value i never succeeded him. That was a horrible moment I have photogenic memory and listening. And he always changes what he said in last conversation and without thinking too much I give him a reality check. Fir an example he said baking job is prohibited in Islam yes i agree but we live in India. If u gt a chance and clear the exam u never think about to quiet from this opportunity. I have him reality check u was not able crack the exam that's it this an excuse this job his haram .. if this haram why u not doing in other sector trading his halal?? She passively agreesive but not pretending. 2) Allhumdolillah bit thing I achieved in my life this is nothing but blessing of Allah but in 3 month friendship as much he knows about me at every step comparing me with his failed achivement. example I am medic always dicuss some volatile topics with senior and junior. Next day she said ohh man I am worried about those students/ junior I am sure they fail in the exam. Look that group of guy seems I have too much knowledge they always ask me about this and that😂😂 that was compression. 3) I'm the kind of person who never talks in scripted patterns , his family and brothers start liking me bec of my charm and gesture. He said ohh u love someone uplift and perise ur achievements I said ohh man we had been in contact for 4 months.. i this thing not meant for me this all just bec who I am .. he said o my friend also crack this and that exam. And he lost his own delusion😂 again I gave him a reality check yes I see him ' chronic snooker and Tabasco chewing gang ' nothing u this company reason u and ur friends still jobless 😂😂 4) last year I was selected for my pg program course in a prestigious medical college in India he said ohh congratulations and again loss in his delusional world one of my friend and his best friend was also selected for m.tech but just bec of his friend he lost this opportunity how luck he have such kind of friendship and bond. I always in reality check I said noo man i never do this for anyone never stop someone for what he acchive by his hardwork and if someone really cares for me and respect my efforts towards my career and goal he never stops me for my growth and upbringing. So i never do this for anyone. How can I believe someone if life is temporary how someone can stay forever ♾️😂😂. 5) he said I am very close to my mother. And we are an innocent and liberal family again in reality check ✅😂 this time he loss his temperament passive agreesive. Why i said I'm spiritually strong because once we talk on call , his charmingness and gesture of honesty seems saud how u are lucky u have such kind of friend but he forgets to disconnect the call and what i heard is disturbing and i was not able believe that this is a same person. He abused me like hell .. so i treat him the way he deserves whenever he asked for anything I said no or just engaged him for my ans yes or no this passive anger burst at the end of conversation.. I fell m strong empathy but the devil's Shake my Sol deeply.. still i can't get out the charm and the lie 😭

So many things make sense in retrospect. I remember going with my husband to a concert by a resident of our town who had gone on to be a big deal. It was a fabulous concert and the musician was very engaging and charismatic (btw, the concert was free because this musician wanted to give back to his community.). My husband disliked him because of his charisma and self-confidence. It was very confusing to me, but after I figured out he was a narcissist, it all made perfect sense.

My ex friend always loved to throw out fake facts about her family. She claimed she was related to Sir Isaac Newton, which can be easily debunked as his last blood relative died in the United States in the 70’s. She also claimed that she was royalty, and that if her family had stayed in Scotland, she would be a Scottish princess; also not true. And yes, she loved to talk at you and would constantly interrupt. She hated when I would look things up after she spewed them out and disprove what she said. She was very selfish and hated anyone being given anything at all. Once, my husband who was my boyfriend at the time, wanted to surprise me by showing me that, new at the time, game PT. I love Silent Hill, and he did everything to hide its title so I wouldn’t know what it was. She was told not to say a word if she knew what it was, and she immediately blurted out as soon as the video started: that’s the new silent hill game. She loved to ruin surprises for others. She even went out of her way to spoil the entire plot of another game for one of my husband’s friends. However, unlike most narcissists, she did not have charisma and no one really liked her.

A month and several dates later, he got a job, and when I got a new job a week after, and excitedly shared the news with him, he didn't respond. I left him a voicemail, left him a message on Facebook, and eventually emailed him, four days later. That's when he dumped me.

I have a new co-worker that I suspected is narcissistic - this helped confirm what I suspected, esp. points 4 and 5. She talks about herself, then when I talk about something that's not about her, her eyes literally glaze over, she looks down at her computer and ignores me. That and other red flags I've learned to see led to me completely backing away from her, even moving where I sit at work. When you know what to look for, it's amazing how they give themselves away. Love bombing at first, then this week the devaluing began. Thanks Danish - I no longer fall for their manipulations

Oh, boy! This video is relatable! Whatever you are talking about, they have done it faster, better, more times, they had it way worse or way better, etc. Also, they find a way to bring the discussion to a point where it's all about them, and how they're doing, how they're feeling, what they're going through, etc. and you can't get a word in sideways. They also offer unsolicited advice like they are the end-all, be-all encyclopedia of knowledge and you're just a know-nothing. The advice they give is usually terrible advice, and they will usually talk extensively about things that are common knowledge - but again - they act as though nobody knows this information but them.

This reminded me of years ago when my husband and I used to compete in amateur sports. He got a you were here prize for a local race and put it on the wall. I got 2nd in nation, different time and sport,and there was no place available for my trophy. Now I’m learning why. Thank you.

Thanks for the ADHD disclaimer! I am always worried I will let myself runa away with a conversation. Worst part, os the more i find someone interesting, the more ideas my mind begins to associate with them, and theore likely I will get distracted and just get away from myself - oops, did it again! Thanks again, Danish! 1:02

As a young child, i noticed my mom neverrrr listend to me. When i asked her, at the age of 43, why you never ever listen to what i say? Her answer: you know i dont listen, so no need to mention it '

This is a perfect example of them talking at you. It's infuriating.

When she starts talking to you, you should abruptly get up and walk away. Later, when she asks why you left, tell her she knows you don't listen, so no need to talk to you 😅

@@Cerez78 wish i did that before. Now the situation is, that i went 100% no contact since january and ahe started stalking me and does false accusations against me eveeywhere. Im in contact with the Police about that

I belong to a new book club with just five people and one of us has stated that she is ADD. And it’s true. She rattles on and gets rolling, but I noticed that if I interrupt her and start to talk about what we started talking about, she doesn’t mind a bit. She really does not take offense. She needs to be interrupted. Very interesting.

Thank you! And also for talking about seeing the whole picture. ADHDers are often confused as being narcissists. Especially when going undiagnosed. I thought I was the narcissist until I got my diagnose 2 years ago age 52. With educating myself and going into trauma theraphy I have also spotted out the narcissists in my family 🙏💜

I had a narcissist bird test me multiple times in one day before I knew what the bird test was at my own house but because I feed the birds over here and I love birds I came running every time they said hey look at this bird, but there was never a bird😂

This was very good Danish. Especially the part about the ADD, I never thought about that. One first cousin does this all the time, he just gets lost in thoughts and cannot pause. It is so embarrassing and drives other people crazy.

When they want to answer 😂

I just want to say that you are the best at understanding and explaining these monsters ♡

Thank you Danish for the all your videos and thank you for the workshop as well.

Like you, i am of Indian descent and only realised in my later years that my dad was a narcissist. Somehow I feel I attract that but at my age in my early50's i need to recognise it or rather not ignore red flags

My mother (narcissist) could never acknowledge any achievements we made. in my late 50's I did something I've wanted to do since I was 19 - I rode my bicycle across the United States, by myself. This was freaking huge for me. About 18months later when I finally was face to face with my mom, she never even asked about it. So Ine day I started talking about it, and she interrupted and said how much she used to love to ride her bike and she would go with friends on the ferry then ride around Staten Island. I had never seen my mom on a bike and this was the first I ever heard that she rode. I asked when that was, she said she was about 16 at the time. She was 86, so she's remembering something she did 70 years ago as if it was comparable to my accomplishment. Of course. I don't know why I even tried. She's gone now and life is so much better! 😁

I love your videos.❤ Not only are they very informative , but your humor on such a serious topic of Narcissistic behavior gets me laughing my a$$ off. I identify so much with your stories as I have experienced similar ❤😂😂

Well I'm pretty sure my grandson's father is a malignant covert narcissist. And this man never talks never responds no facial expressions he's cruel he's emotionless he ruins every freaking holiday he's abusive but he's silent

All of it, 100% spot on!

Hit it right on the nail again! Thanks for another great video!

Yeap your always wrong they're right

Great Vid... You're On Point In Regards To The Character Traits Of A Narcissist... They're Very Irritating People To Associate With...

Thank you for brilliant insight. Everything you said was so on point. God Bless you

Excellent list! If only this information had been available years ago. And remembering that they won’t change, this is invaluable at reminding us who can’t get away that we are in an ongoing situation

Well described.

You’re always right on!

You described my former husband’s partner to perfection. Thank you!

Very well explain ed

The ones ive encountered stand too close and stand over me. Im really short so its quite intimidating. 😬

I've mentioned this before but I stopped going out with my mother's free breakfast or free lunch because whatever seat she let me choose she had to take it from me and then I was a captive audience. She would get really Perturbed if you quote unquote interrupted her and tell me how rude it was then she needed to finish her sentence or her idea. I finally said one day okay exactly when do I get to talk? You never let me talk I just like to know how long you're going to talk? I quit going out with her.

Very true, they re unpredictable

BINGO!!! FULL HOUSE!!! Double prize tonight: my brother and my brother in law.

How sad my live was from 1 to 45 growing up in narcist family. . Sinds i understand. Thinks and happenings situations light up. And wil never see my family again 🙏🕊🙏

Thank you for this - YES to ALL of these - and one other experience that I had with my ex partner - if we were having a conversation - which meant that he was talking about himself lol - sometimes, if these conversations were happening in bed, and I would want to join in the conversation lol, and I would like to bring an example to support what he was saying, but my example would be from my own experience & about myself, he would get angry and upset and make out like I was being so self centred and he would even say "well we were talking about ME". I would feel so bad, I could feel my energy drain from my body & I felt something I couldn't explain because it devalued me as well - I LOVE having conversations & sharing personal experiences - I love listening to others' experiences AND sharing my own, but I began to feel as though he didn't care about my experiences at all as though they were worthless. Also then he would go to sleep & I would not be able to because I felt so bad.

Are covert narcissists as talkative(about themselves) as overt ones?

Yes some coverts are talkative too. Met one for 3months and dump him. Too selfish, talks at you, interrupting etc everything mentioned in the video.

Okay, tell me.. I'm gonna be ready!🤓💪

They spend a lot for materialistic things that’s for them - clothes , cars , gadgets etc

No matter how much i want to deny but at the end of the day when i think about it i am surrounded by people who only wants to talk about themself and hear me talk about them. I am so use to interaption i just stop talking and forget about it. When i say interuption they tell me to be quiet because they are bored of hearing me talk 😂😂😂😂 life is fucked i guess

Greek for witness is Marcu. From which we get martyr, to suffer for a cause. We suffer for their cause.

So true, so unrespectful

This is sooo true 😂

They demand the attention and topic of conversation always be about them. They just demand attention period and will look for ways to disrupt you to get it. Nothing is worst than their problems even if they seem like non-issues to everyone else, always complaining

"Problems that would be non-issues for anyone else" should be on the list!

There are a lot in my town. They love to talk about bad things that triggers me to feel pretty bad. I have sugar coated this because it would get everyone feeling bad.

It took me 13 years to realize. What iam dealing with..... I thought something is wrong with me..... Then it reached a level i develop autu immune disease.

I have also the habit to where things are not correctly. Most on food. Missing herbs and finishing touch, just that bit more who made it more tasty. Or ingredients. Sometimes I think I have that same Narcissitic behavior taken over from my Mother. And I knew I had to get rid of her indoctrination in my head.

My ex narc friend and soon to be ex husband fits these descriptions perfectly! 😅

6:51 i think he loved soliloquizing over how someone who'd wronged him horribly. When that gave out, it meant it was my turn to be the verbal punching bag, or let him be Torquemada the Inquisitor berating me while finding new weak points to hit.
