The True Intentions of the Covert Narcissist (Special Throwback Episode)

The True Intentions of the Covert Narcissist (Special Throwback Episode)

Have you ever tried to figure out someone’s true intentions? Have you been suspicious of the intentions behind one’s behaviors? Have you ever asked yourself, Yeah but what do they really want?
Covert narcissists hide their true intentions. You can feel this when you talk with them. Something just doesn’t feel quite right. It doesn’t feel genuine. Everything they do and say has a hidden agenda. What is that agenda? What are their true intentions?

The true intentions of a covert narcissistic person are:
•to rely on others to build them up, to build their self-esteem
•to earn compliments and recognition
•to gain admiration and the feeling of being important
•to confirm that they are better or higher in status than you
•to create confusion in others so they can maintain their superior confidence over your obvious inferiority
•to win your apologies and continue to boost their superiority
•to validate that they are a good person

How do we know this? How can you identify it in your own situation? What do you do about it?
