  • Narcissists are not always surly and gruff. In fact, they can come across as super nice...at least they will if they think there is a reward in it for them. Dr. Les Carter exposes many evidences of the fake nice narcissist, prompting you to patiently let the real truth rise to the surface. Unfortunately their niceness can often prove to be little more that one of their exploitive ploys.
    Dr. Les Carter is a best selling author and therapist who lives in Dallas, Tx. In the past 40 years he has conducted more than 60,000 counseling sessions and many workshops and seminars. He specializes in anger management and narcissistic personality disorder.

      And, in my case, even when I did everything they said. Then the gaslighting telling me that what I thought happened never did. And all our mutual friends knew that too. Then he'd delighted reported crazy details of stories of my behavior that others had witnessed (must be those ghostly young ladies he told me about. I had no friends or family to call. Besides I was too embarrassed and afraid. and none of his contacts numbers. It was a hellish nightmare but I survived. I choose to thrive.

      I got the worst things said type rage and a beginning of a discard, taking back earlier complimments, subtle threats, contempt , control, anger and crazy making yada yada yada as a discard and the next thing after - a funny post to him about Gordon Ramsey making soup. On the same day
      Yes...he was serious I didnt even bother
      Well! mr young narcissist you fucked that one up and shot yourself in the foot , my memory isny so awful I forget what happened a few hours prior (oh i think he was trying to throw me and switch/bait and switch) but I read what happened BEFORE, ya know when he was basically slating my very being and destroying my identity and trashing my right to exist
      I said "i dont wish to talk about soup right now"
      Penny dropped, he was usually uncommunicative but I'm sure he read it
      Then before he replied I discarded HIM as nicely as i could and that was that
      The bait and switch tactic is the most fucked up thing ive ever seen a person do but they do and it's HOW they attempt to not let you go. Didnt work on me , we were both discarding each other ha
      sorry bit of a vent i'm just processing i guess
      but yes it does you dont knowup from down and happens so fast . I personally find it helpful, like it shocks you into action

      Sometimes there is a payoff but even that is too taxing and it ceases to be appealing.
      Besides, if they give or do anything for you, you also at some point have to pay the price.
      My reasoning is this: "okay I put up with you for the payoff, it was somewhat fair. Yet, although I already the price, now you are going to say I did nothing, say I did not earn or deserve it and punish me ON TOP of me already paying the price by being nice and sticking around him when that was always almost too much to sacrifice. Yet despite my sacrifice, the one thing I endured endlessly, he accuses me of being totally a zero. Which is infuriating!"
      I want to ask him, "If you didn't help me with xyz, and I stayed for it despite your ugliness, then who would you get to yell and demean? "

      kathy montgomery I was dating a woman for a short period. One night while we were together we began talking about her faith. She’s Muslim, I’m not. The conversation was tense, but pleasant, as was she. It began getting serious as the topic of sex turned up. I felt it would be better to discuss that at another time as it was complex and we were not seeing things about it from exactly the same perspective. She immediately changed, began shaming me, accusing me of things. It became apparent she wasn’t at all interested in learning about me. It was her faith, her issues, her perspective, her feelings. I told her I wanted to discuss this matter in a more friendly space, she shamed me again, and we didn’t talk again; aside from her demanding I remove all social media posts of us together. I was actually hurt, because I valued our dating. But, I see that it as a grace now.

      Yes, most definitely! Yesterday, I tried this out on my narc to see if he'd still respond/react the same. Since he said " he's changed" sure...
      I txt him, " I'm sorry that I'm quiet, but I'm just not in the mood to talk today" he replied with kind of bragging that he's going for an AMAZING dinner with his son, after a tooth being pulled. He txt me before bed, " I love you 😞😞" I said good night. So early morning I get a txt from him " good morning sunshine" haven't got one of those in a while. He says " hope you're ok, you've got me worried, plz let me know what's going on" 2nd msg " plz let me know, I'm really starting to worry. If I'm bothering you, I'll leave you alone. If you hate me😞" I knew if I opened up n told him what's really on my mind, he'd blow up, twist it up, play victim, blame me or give me the guilt trip. And so he did. First telling me , he's there for me, to speak n tell him what's on my mind. Why, so he can use it against me later to play victim? He was only worried bout himself!!! That I wasn't giving him attention for that short time. His mind goes nuts with all the crazy thoughts of what I could be doing without him. He attacked me through txt, then later admits he's so scared to lose me. Smh so sad...

    I realized she had narcissistic tendencies when suddenly the nice mask started to slip. When I would confide in her she’d look at me with dead eyes, and would take so long to respond that I would apologize for saying too much, then she’d casually say it was okay and my feelings were valid, but never really went much deeper. It was like she was reading from a script and there was nothing behind it, no emotion or empathy. The final straw was when she said she was happy I found someone to talk to at a party she invited me to, cause she was ANNOYED with having to socialize with me, that she just wanted to dance cause that was her “therapy”. Just the same dancing for hours on end… no talking, then why even invite me? I was just a prop for her. I was shocked at how insane that all sounded and checked out of the friendship immediately.

I don’t take lightly to people walking all over me, I used to just shrug it off but now I call them out! Then they turn it around and say you’re the jerk for calling them on their behavior. Then they usually try to manipulate a situation to make them look like the victim so they can absolve themselves from the original aggression.

The expression on his face was one of complete shock when he saw me staring at the two of them from across the picnic shelter. I learned he had actually married her behind my back over the summer. I thought I was going to die when I found out.

The respondents had worked with my dad when he was a cop and told my my mom “he’s never been nothing but nice to me”. My mom said “you never had to live with him.” The police tried taking me to jail for domestic assault against my abuser. Luckily I was already delayed entry into the navy and my recruiter got me shipped out early and kept me from criminal charges.

Then, immediately moves towards wanting to sit and chat on a schedule. Couldn’t make it 2 days before she tells me she think she has MS, wants my phone number to give to her husband in prison as an emergency number and wants to give me the key to her apartment. Told her no. It was obvious that she felt that she’d give me a “token” of appreciation for me to be a free caregiver and change the trajectory of my life, like it was nothing. I don’t even know her. I’m just the tenant upstairs. But, there are many clues to leading me to believe she’s narcissistic. The speed at which she suddenly moved, after being here for 3 years, her little token of appreciation for trying to suck me in, thinking nothing of my life as a person, in contrast to her own and, possibly, feeling that this is going to have to happen, whether I like it or not.

      l wbhkl my narcissistic mother never brags. It’s more of a smug assumption that she’s in charge and her 2 daughters had better not forget it. I have though. That’s why she hasn’t seen me in over 2 years. For the most part, I’ve extracted her smug ass from my life. Let my sister be the willing victim, although I get the sense that it’s now 2 narcs against one another. Staying out of that.
      Kind of pathetic to watch though. My mother is now 76. She’s perfectly capable of living under the continued assumption that she’s getting away with using my sister and I and, yes, she told me that she’d just been using me all these years. But, she’d live under the assumption that she’s giving my sister a Trojan horse (house up the street from her), so my sister will feel ultra commitment to mowing her lawn, doing her grocery shopping and anything else my mother wants her to do, while she holds down 3+ jobs, while in turn, my financially desperate sister has my mother’s debit card number...
      Of course, after I’ve been scapegoated, if my mother ever finds that my sister has done some dipping, my mother will want me to fix it, the same as when she called me to reign in my sister last year, after my sister wouldn’t call her 2-3 times per day. I told her to get used to it. Ultimately, she called the police on my sister the next week, they found my number and I told them what I felt was actually going on.
      I have no problem with the both of them strangling one another to death and I have a couple of other relatives who, despite knowing what’s going on, want me to actually be involved, so they can go jump in there and kill themselves, as well.

    The fake nice is so true, they are only fake nice when they want something from you, or to make sure their reputation / image is highly important for others to like them. My narc was always concerned that I wouldn't say anything to anyone about him- he would always be insecure of me talking about him and his actions/ attitude. He made sure I was seen as the "crazy" one, delusional and always would say I was " obsessed" with him. Yes, he was always asking about my life and day- BUT never would tell me about his day or life nothing, he was so vague and sometimes I would say rarely he would slip and tell me what already had happen , but would always change the subject- YES, he loved gossip and always wanted me to tell him about others so he can go and tell them about what I said OR to have something to converse about with said person. As in he felt " empathy" - fake empathy that is. He would take my ideas or words and use them with others, but never had any of his own. He would think of people as " objects" to use for later.

    INTERPRETED FROM A NARC SURVIVOR: THEY ARE THE KINDEST PERSON; IF YOU DO THEIR BIDING!! THEY ARE THE MOST CARING; CARE ONLY ABOUT THEMSELVES!! THEY WILL GIVE YOU HELL!!! THAT’S THE ONLY THING THEY KNOW HOW TO GIVE!!! SHIRT OFF THEIR BACK CAME FROM ANOTHER ONE OF THEIR VICTIMS!!!

      They say they will give the shirt off their backs and you should too. I think that's a form of manipulation too. Because he knows I would .... but puts a spin on it and says " I wouldn't." And that's about a stranger! I'm nice but that kind of manipulation and assumption is weird he belittled me like that. He puts words in my mouth and twists it to suit his narc.
      Gaslighting. I guess.

    Because of the way I was raised, I truly believed that all mothers were lovely, serviceable saints in public and horrifying, terrorizing witches at home. I thought all my peers were keeping secrets about how scary their mothers were, like I was. It wasn’t until I was thirty and had consistent interactions with many healthy women that I realized the way I was raised wasn’t normal. Being adorable to everyone else while terrorizing your children at home isn’t normal.

And don’t feel guilty for finally confronting her & standing up for myself. There’s no disrespect in standing up for yourself or eliminating them from your life when they’ve done nothing but be mean. I truly feel one thing... They’re demonic and envoy it. They know what they do. They don’t care about anyone. Reason why I don’t feel sorry for that thing anymore. Never again gonna allow her evilness into my life again. 78 yrs old and doing her best to not just put the whole family against me but also put my own grown sons against me too. That’s what she last came to do. No more visits or ANYTHING for her! Crazy how bad that BEING can be. No joke. Much love and stay strong 💪🏼 😇 nothing wrong with eliminating the yuck out of our lives❣️ it’s all about caring, respecting ourselves and having dignity. No space for hate either. Just lots of love for ourselves as we have to learn to re parent ourselves on a daily basis. Big Hugs 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Made it difficult for me to receive help as a child and as a teenager because of both my parents' duplicitous bullshit.
      And the constant comments from friends or people in the community I lived in who thought they were genuinely in the presence of amazing people ""Omg you're so lucky she's your mom" or " You're dad is brilliant and such a good guy" also created endless opportunities for gaslighting and self doubt (really just opportunities to pretend and wish these comments to be true) Damn... if you people only really knew...

      @@verseau8360 It's extremely common for narc mothers to hate their daughters as soon as they hit puberty. Because they're SEETHING with jealousy, and they can't accept that you're becoming a woman, and that you're your own person. This happened to my sister and I, as soon as we turned 13, my mom turned against us. Even my narc aunt turned against me at that age, too. They feel threatened by us. They see us as competition.

      @karamlevi 2 роки тому +1

      Here’s how it works...
      He developed a character of perfection. You bought into it seeing him as superior to all other men... he read your requirements and fed them to you... and you rejected all other less then perfect/human suitors.
      Read this over and over again till you get it.
      That’s what happened. You don’t need a mystery on that, you need truth.
      A character is created and held.
      On stage off stage behavior.
      Your the stage. Your mind is the stage.
      Them thinking about your thinking is the target.
      Women fall prey to narcs, especially feminist women, due to biases against non perfect men, and cave woman desires for the alpha... but since you may be biased... you don’t know what a alpha leader/ strong man is... you stereo type, and lack nuance... so the narc sees this and give you a easy character you’ll always except.
      2 things...
      1- my dad did this continuously and it was disgusting to watch it work.
      2- as long as your list of requirements is plastic, narcs will read your needs act flawlessly.
      I caught myself liking a female narc. She was ballerina statute pretty. Blue eyes, light hair, whimsical... elegant and refined in every way... yet down to earth in a I’m happening type of way... we hit it off well. “She got it, she got me...ect.”
      Btw, she dressed in a French/Japanese way, and was 100% American white girl...
      She was my ideal of grounded yet elevated charm and wife material . I was sold at first site, first behaviors... and her spunky yet demure attitude when she was with others... around me she was submissive and engaging... she felt extremely safe, and softly wise...
      So I began hunting for her down side... we all got one... what’s hers? She was thin... but the next rigid... she had a tight jaw... lots on anxiety and tension hiding just under everything...
      She watched me too much, she got more and more perfect as she watched me... over many meetings and group events...
      No doubt I wanted her, but... not at the cost of horror... so I’m double checking this perfect chick...
      Long story short... I sold her on a massage, something I did part time. She offered to sleep with me during the service. I passed... she was not offended in any way... she re-measured me as deeply spiritual...
      Then confessed to beating men she dates. That she rages and is disgusted and filed with unquenchable hate that thrives from within... and most of her partners let her beat them to remain in relationship with her perfectness... ect.
      She then left my life. But, she also left the lives of mutual friends...
      2 dudes got married. On their stay at home honey moon night, she being a sub tenant... called the police, said a guy with a gun is in the house... trying to rob a safe in the bed room... she then left and was never herd from again...
      6 cops in the house now, all dark, guns drawn... bust the door where married sane sex couple is in bed... it was not a nice moment for anyone...
      Those two guys then felt bad for her... and he “mistake”. No- she was jealous and punished them fir her jealousy then did a take away... by never coming back / discard.
      Be aware of perfect people. Some of them are acting... others just fear disapproval or running a good game of be a great person...
      You must figure out if they been trained to be great performers or are they actually evil... because ones a little insecure... that’s okay... the other is evil...
      Not sleeping with evil is a pretty important skill to have btw. I rejected my perfect girl, and for the right reasons... which was what I read in body language and then investigated via my massage service and open sharing... that was my way... maybe you have yours?
      Oh and I got paid 😎 when checking out my perfect girl... to some that’s a win... I lost nothing, but the illusion of her, and then the group of friends we had when she ditched some of them and others did not believe my knowledge of her... even after clear evidence presented both in crystal clear stories she confesses to me and in her death threat via cops misled by her whimpering calls for help by a armed intruder... which was obviously 🙄 retaliation for her not being married like they were...
      Unpredictable to say the least...

      While yes, the line is a truism. I would be careful that you don't feed the idea that every ex is a narc or that everyone is a victim.
      I came in search of answers at first to an accusation from an ex that in the end discarded me after almost 2 year long relationship and dating within a month of last speaking to me. It is a long tale, and I almost told it but to cut to the chase
      I just love that you quote Shakespeare on a video about narcissism. Mercy and forgiveness are themes touched on in almost all of Shakespeare's works, let alone "Merchant of Venice." Mind you, I find that almost refreshing in comparison to the "honest help," if not actually "helpful help" youtube comments usually inspire. Though, I am pretty sure that is not what you meant by it.
      If you are using the quote from Tolkien, I would point to the first book of Lord of the Rings and Gandalf's rebuff of Frodo not to let ill will take hold in his heart:
      "“Deserves it? I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death, and some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”"
      Even a later line of the very poem you quoted:
      "deep roots...(shit trying to remember, sorry.. adhd brain is fun...paraphrase time) can't be reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
      A light from the shadows shall spring. Renewed shall be blade that was broken. The crown-less again shall be king."
      There are man ways insight can be found in timeless words like these. It just really depends on the mind trying to perceive a truth and really how they approach the world. At least IMO.
      Like for me, I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt until I have you red-handed with evidence, because I just don't think it's fair to, I guess, "falsely accuse" someone of something like NPD. I just don't think I could bear having it on my conscious to do that and find out I was wrong. For that reason, even though my ex really freaking hurt me, I can't and wont call her a narcissist unless she is diagnosed.

      I know she will not come back, nor do I really want her to. I do actually want her to at least maybe find whatever it is she is looking for so she can be happy.

    Thanks for showing that we're not crazy for believing "nice" people can also be narcissists. I'm struggling a lot after 11 years with a "nice" narcissist in daily life (thankfully not my loving spouse). From the outside, on paper and objectively, this person seemed like a dream, too good to be true. I'd dealt with a "rage narcissist" in the past, so I never really believed a person who gives excessive praise and gifts could be a narcissist. But the "nice narcissist" was worse because it kept me captured for so many years. This person gives me nightmares, and every interaction left me feeling drained, stripped of strength, always feeling trampled or like I have to kill my dignity if I want to remain in good graces. It was only after interactions with friends that I realized you're not supposed to have daily disturbed sleep and feel despair, humiliated, oppression, in a healthy relationship, no matter how "good" and "nice" and "virtuous" they seem on the outside. I relate at the core to this.

Not because I didn't recognize the lies, but because I thought that I would help this poor person discover their true selves so they didn't have to be miserable and fake anymore. Yes, even though she tried to control everything that I did and even though I recognized it instantly, I still thought that I could fight her narcissism with kindness. I was very dumb. And now my self-esteem is a mess.
      The problem with being able to smell fake is that it also usually means that you can smell misery. And that makes you want to help people who are destroying their own lives. How can you coldly turn away from somebody being fake when all you can see inside is a scared little girl? I blocked her on Facebook yesterday because she keeps suckering me back in with sympathy. But I'm done. She stole my best friend of 22 years and poisoned her against me, and I cannot ever, ever, ever take her back. I had a Frodo/Sam kind of relationship with this best friend, no joke.

But the scariest is when they are envious of someone and try to be just like that person. My ex narc has (had) a childhood friend who became a very successful business owner. And my ex tried to live on his level. Which ended up draining the bank, bills not getting paid, cars repossessed. Even spending the money on other supplies (women). Wouldn’t let me have access to the finances. Even though I was the breadwinner. So, I didn’t realize what he was doing until it was too late for me to fix his mess.) Ended up opening my own account; didn’t go over well. Didn’t do any good anyways; he was always broke. So I still had to foot ALL OF THE BILLS!! All because he wanted to try to live the lifestyle and tried to become his friend. Which he couldn’t do and didn’t think he had to do anything to get it. Thought he deserved it.

    My severely Narcissistic mother was the poster child for fake nice. We'd be at a restaurant and she'd put on this fake smile and engage the server. I would get totally embarrassed. To me it was so obvious shes faking nice. But the server would love it and eat it up. Some would say "your mom is so cool" inwardly I was disgusted. As soon as they'd walk away her Narcissistic daggers came out. Such a FAKER.

      kavita deva OMG, same here with my mother!! Whenever my friends would come over, or we went to church on Sundays, she transformed into a sweet angel. Everyone would tell me how amazing of a person my mother was, including my friends. Her fakeness made it impossible for me to share the problems I was having with her behind closed doors. Long story short, I am now 53 years old and have finally gone no contact about a year ago. I have never felt more free!! Not an easy decision, but I'm glad I finally broke the endless cycle. I only wish I had done it years earlier!

      @@CG-bt7oc hey CG. I read your reply and I wanted to say isn't it disgusting the way they put on the fake nice to people around them and then those people actually say "your mom is so cool you're so lucky to have a mom like that she's so awesome". And like you said and then who are you going to talk to? Who's going to believe you? Nobody. Because they don't see what goes on behind closed doors. And boy are they a dr. Jekyll and mr. Hyde. I'm so glad you went no contact that is awesome. I'm 62 years old and when I was in my 50s early fifties I went no contact at all ever. And yes it is liberating. Some people say to me well when your mother dies don't you want to be there at her bedside don't you want to go to her funeral? And I say what for, heck no. Why should I be fake and go to her funeral or sit by her bedside. It is the worst kind of abuse ever is to have a narcissistic mother I think. Especially if you're the scapegoat. Thank you for your reply I hope you have a great weekend.

      @@kavitadeva You're spot on! I've struggled with a lot of guilt by going no contact, but it has helped me as I have come to terms with the truth that my mother has never loved me. Narcs are not capable of genuine love, and narcissistic mothers are no exception. I know now that my mother only kept the "relationship" going because of how she might benefit from me in her old age. She is very passive aggressive and has hinted much over the years about it being a child's responsibility to take care of their aging parents. Funny thing though is that she dumped me in foster care for 6 years when I was young with zero intentions on coming back for me. You reap what you sow I guess!

      Yes. My youngest son, aged 13 figured that out and asked his dad’s new fiancé... “I have an important question for you, have you ever told my dad NO?”. He said she considered thoughtfully then said, “No, no I haven’t” with a concerned look on her face. He then said “you might want to try that a few times and see what happens. Watch his face. Watch his eyes. That’s when you will see who he truly is”. She married him anyway. My son said “I tried to warm her mom. I didn’t want her to get hurt, she seems nice like you. Maybe she will just never say no and it will be ok”. Already trying to save damsels in danger 😞

Your son's questions are a very good way to warn others without labelling the n. using diagnostic terminology. Sadly, many will fail to take the warning like this woman, but it was very brave of your son to try. It must hurt to be more "solid" and socially mature than his own dad.

      Especially the look they give when you don't agree with them, have a different perspective or opinion. They can't be wrong. They are perfect in their eyes and think they know everything. As Socrates said " I know that I know nothing." He was a wise man. These narcs need a reality check.
