What Happens When The Narcissist Gets Old
As individuals age, the traits and behaviors associated with narcissism may evolve and change in various ways. It's important to note that not all narcissists will follow the same trajectory, and the specific outcomes can vary depending on the individual and their circumstances. Here are some possible developments in the life of an aging narcissist that I will be looking at in the video:
Decreased Grandiosity: With age, some narcissists may experience a reduction in their grandiose and self-centered tendencies. This can be influenced by life experiences, personal growth, and changes in social dynamics.
Increased Isolation: Narcissists often have difficulty maintaining long-term, healthy relationships due to their self-centeredness and lack of empathy. As they age, they may find themselves more isolated if they haven't developed meaningful connections earlier in life.
Health Issues: Like anyone else, aging narcissists may face physical and mental health challenges. These issues can exacerbate narcissistic tendencies or force them to confront their own vulnerability.
Coping Mechanisms: Some narcissists may develop coping mechanisms or seek therapy as they age to address underlying issues that have fueled their narcissism. However, it can be challenging for them to admit they need help due to their resistance to criticism and self-reflection.
Loneliness and Regret: As they reflect on their life and missed opportunities for meaningful relationships, aging narcissists may experience feelings of loneliness, regret, or emptiness.
Personality Stability: Research suggests that personality traits tend to stabilize with age, meaning that narcissistic traits may become less extreme but remain a part of an individual's personality.
Continued Narcissistic Traits: In some cases, narcissistic traits may persist or even intensify as individuals age, particularly if they are not motivated to change or lack insight into their behavior.
It's essential to remember that narcissism exists on a spectrum, and not all narcissists are the same. Some individuals with narcissistic traits may mellow with age, while others may become more entrenched in their behavior. Treatment and therapy, particularly in the earlier stages of life, can have a significant impact on an individual's ability to change and develop healthier interpersonal skills. However, changing narcissistic behavior can be challenging, and not all narcissists seek or respond to treatment.

They waste their lifes and are never fully content , people become aware of their behaviours and dont like them...liars are no use to anyone.They become bitter and if you hang about they will blame you for every part of their down fall ie: age and their failing looks.

I completely agree with you, they blame for everything that does not go their way!
The nex has been getting worse as he is getting older. Stealing, lying, abusing, cheating all are ramped up 100%. Still believe he can do nothing wrong and is a victim. He is now 63.

I believe that is related to the "evil spirit" component. After living with my Russian wife a few years, I became aware of her interest in and association with the "spirit world". When it rained at night, she would say she could hear the spirits of her deceased loved ones. Eventually, when she was angry, usually about something foolish, she would look at me and sneer, "I am evil". I would ask if she was bragging or complaining? Several times I asked her if she felt that was a good thing? I also asked her if she knew anyone that wanted to spend time with or be around a person who openly proclaimed to be evil. One thing I have never understood. When getting along and sharing a peaceful relationship is so rewarding, why do narcissists insist on destroying their own lives, by their own hand? My wife moved out of our beautiful classic home, with all she could ever need or want, including a patient husband who loved her dearly, understood her problems, had skills and cared enough to work with and take care of her. When there is a person who would love and care for them, who would be glad just to have a peaceful together, why would they choose this destruction? Initial, after angrily leaving our home, my wife lived with friends or in empty buildings, then moved into the bed of a wealthy lonely man she tried to seduce. She now rents a tiny apartment she can barely afford, works part-time in retail and can't easily improve her job situation because of limited language skills, which I was helping her improve. When I married her, she was so beautiful and attractive. Now, when she comes by to "hoover" (every few weeks or so), she looks terrible. Her once clear skin is now wrinkled with "crow's feet" and she has no shape. She clearly doesn't eat properly. She also looks like she was ridden hard and put away wet, and yet she is adamant about being who she is, refusing to accept she could be so much happier. None of this has ever made sense to me. For that reason, I have progressed only by taking Anoushka's advice at face value, even though it is alien to my conventional thought. After following Anoushka and several others, I can basically predict her behavior, although it's never good.
They settle who will put with them and take care of them.
My ex is 61 still uses steroids for bodybuilding, the gym is his hunting ground, still goes after 30 and 40 year olds even though he rents a room, has no money and has ED problems, so how does that work? 😳. DELUSIONAL

my X narc is now 74. he is more willful, manipulative, bullying, predatory... etc. im absolutely NO CONTACT. I see him going off the cliff with his self will.
Ive seen one get waaaaay worse once they aged and retired. Their outlet was at work and once that was gone, they started taking it out on everyone else. It was pitiful
My ex developed a serious auto immune disease at age 60. Now she is in bad shape. Karma!!!
My old narc is only getting worse. Not more mellow. His entitlement grows with every year.
🔥😰🔥They age straight into Hell .. Thanks for your videos👑🔥
Known her for 20-something years now and she's only turning 50 this year and she looks so much older than she should because she won't forgive life, sad.
My Ex Wife looked like a female Ramsees II... Hadn't seen her (it ) for 4 years after the brutal discard, so seeing her look soooo old was a little startling.... but to be honest her transmogrification from exotic beauty to Ramsee II in 4 years was fine with me.

Bless his soul. At least he got to a point where he was remorseful and actually cared to ask for forgiveness. It takes a lot of humility to do that. Good luck with the rest of us, who haven't even gotten as little as an acknowledgement, let alone a sorry or forgive me.

I must be a narc. I seek out solitude most of the time. My circle of friends is very small. I am an accept me as I am person.

You can be one, but seeking solitude doesn't make you narc. You may be one, I don't know, but that is not why. You are possibly a dismissive avoidant (attachment theory), whether or not narcissistic.
They are scared to their core by the certainty of death.... like my mother, who was FURIOUS that she would have to fess up to all her evil deeds
Not in my case.....he is getting more desperate as he ages. He is still playing the same games and finding more supply. I have gone no contact.
😂😂😂.... Tearoom tango 😂😂😂
What a disgusting existence, the fact their so preoccupied with throwing their, soul spirit life force , away to meanigless superficial admiration, not realizing that's their most precious gift that should be not only respected but worshipped,piss on god or he's children, think you know best, carry on , it couldn't happen to a finer people ❤😂😇
Yeah i saw several nars..they end up getting nothing..alone n old
Interesting! What ages are we talking about here?? 40's, 50's, 60's???
What's old? She just turned 44. I'm surprised she didn't post on X about it and tag her boyfriend like she did last year. Trouble in paradise? 🤟😎
