According to worldwide respected and leading authorities and researchers on Narcissistic behaviors and Narcissists, in detailed data bases, the following below includes findings in brief summery. (Not written here as verbatim). Also, included here are observed patterns, experiences and behavior expressions of individuals having traits as those described.
Narcissists lack empathy. In the first stage they will idealize their "supply" (i.e. partner, spouse, etc.) They will find out what you want, your weaknesses, and act in manners that secure you, by conveying abundant reassurances and praises to the areas of your vulnerability and needs. He will convince you he is all you want. He is false. Both the overt and covert narcissist need a continuous supply of attention, "narcissistic supply" from their spouse, partner, girlfriend, boyfriend, etc. If the narcissist senses the supply is no longer sufficient or worthwhile, he begins the second stage, devalue, in other words the praise and high loving attention given to you is reversed, stopped, and replaced with cold negatively. Once he ceases to have any need for you, and you are of no value, he proceeds to the third stage, discard, and he "dumps" his partner without a care, coldly, quickly, without explanation, and walks away as if you never existed and seeks another source of supply. Usually the next source has already been secured, and the cycle will begin again with the new source of supply.
This emotional abuse leaves the victim shattered, alone, confused, blamed and emotionally devastated. In the discard phase the victim feels emotionally raped, mind screwed and heart murdered. The trauma is deep and extremely difficult.
According to an excerpt from Wikipedia from a 2012 book on power-hungry narcissists, it suggest that narcissists typically display most and sometimes all of the following traits, here are a few:
- Problems in sustaining satisfying relationships.
- Detesting those who do not admire them (narcissistic abuse).
- Using other people without considering the cost of doing so.
- Difficulty with empathy.
- Hypersensitivity to any insults or imagined insults.
- Vulnerability to shame rather than guilt.
- Flattery towards people who admire and affirm them (narcissistic supply).
- Pretending to be more important than they really are.
- Claiming to be an "expert" at many things.
- Inability to view the world from the perspective of other people.
- Denial of remorse and gratitude.
There is now more attention being given to the awareness of this emotional abuse, and is more recognizable than even in the recent past. It is so devastating and much more pervasive than thought to be only a few years ago according to experts in the field.
