    Sometimes a fake smile, wanting to leave a meeting early, being self focused, etc, are defensive mechanisms displayed by people suffering from severe anxiety. People with anxiety disorders like OCD are not narcissistic, they are stuck in a horribly tormenting cycle of severe anxiety and hyper self focus. Just something to consider as an alternative possibility.

      Unfortunately it’s a byproduct of living in an unauthentic society which disregards painful emotion (anxiety, fear, low mood etc) as wrong. Until society accepts these things as part of the human experience it will be difficult not to wear masks occasionally which get in the way of genuine encounters with the people you meet

      I find as of late people are becoming more and more self absorbed, selfish and fake. I think there are about maybe 15% of humanity that are still genuine (diminishing) and the rest are in a 'businessship' not a 'friendship' as I call it. It's really sad for the genuine ones. That's why alot of them disconnect as it's too painful and disheartening to keep getting trampled on and become socially awkward, anxiety, phobias etc etc

    Getting a fingertip feel for social interactions is absolutely essential for seeing through people's verbal deceptions and that's only possible by getting yourself out there and interacting with other humans. You can read books about non verbal cues and they definitely help, but only practice and trial and error over time will give you the actual power of accurately reading people.

      I am often quiet and observe people, to see how I can connect with them, and get a feel for who they are. I work in Special Education and it is part of my job. Without building relationships, it’s makes working with kids a bit more challenging.
      I have fallen into the trap of thinking that I could read people’s non-verbal cues and have made many mistakes along the way. It’s difficult sometimes to fully discern what is exactly going through another’s mind without asking them. Sometimes our own projections cloud our interpretations.

    This info is a confirmation to my study and findings watching narcissist and dysfunctional/toxic individuals/families. It's spot on. I've found myself not being liked because of the ability to read behavior (not get stuck on words). Toxic people hate when they can't manipulate you.

    • @catatafish22
      @catatafish22 Рік тому +17

      Spot on. When you have the ability to read between the lines of a manipulator you instantly become radioactive to them. They see you as a threat which must be eliminated. My friend had a manipulative partner, and right off the bat she recognised I was the type who saw past her phony attempts to come off as friendly and compassionate. I felt from her a mixture of disdain and fear. _Distain_ because I refused to put up with the toxicity, and _fear_ because this was a threat to her. I copped a barrage of subversive tactics to try and chip away at my confidence (the same way she would chip away at the confidence of everyone around her). In the end, she drove away a large portion of her friends, including her partner - my best friend... because they finally got sick of the toxicity. God it was a relief to finally get my friend back after it all finally finished.
      The key to dealing with toxic people is to have faith in your judgement, always re-assess your judgement because accuracy is very important. Especially if you're dealing with a smart manipulator. Always respond with body language which indicates you're not buying into the facade, and _don't get stuck on words_ - language is the only weapon of a manipulator. If you call them out with language, they'll find a way to twist your words and turn you in to the bad guy (you can't fight fire with fire). Silence is their achillies heel.

      dw, these things are only learned through experience. I always profiled people through the second language, but my folly was having too much compassion. Most toxic people are manipulative because they suffered trauma and were raised in poor environments. I used to always give pass because I understood why they were toxic. Even if you knew about this concept, it's likely you still would've fallen prey to the toxic ones because knowing is only half the battle. Learning how to deal with toxic people can only come through experience.

    I'm 56. I've spent the past decade reading books about Human Behavior. Talking with professionals, etc. In all my research to better understand people, I've learned it's impossible! In spite of what the books say, the pros say, etc. People are beyond understanding. Beyond reason! The only way I found to reduce stress is isolate myself as much as possible. I haven't found anyone worth the stress they give. As George Washington said,
    _"It is better to be alone than to be in bad company."_

    I think kids who had alcoholic or unstable parents have a knack for this communication -- an apparently preternatural ability to sense the subtle nonverbal communication layer. It's not supernatural and it's not mind reading, it's a survival skill born from an early age. Unfortunately these same kids grow up often having unresolved trauma but if that can be overcome they will have a sort of "gift" -- born from pain.

    After reading some of the comments about some signs don't necessarily show something about someone's character like narcissism due to other hidden factors such as social anxiety, going through a tough time etc for example a fake smile, I guess the solution to this is you have to analyse someone's gestures and body language over a certain period of time to get a holistic understanding of them and to create a more certain understanding of their character and personality.
    If someone shows patterns over time and repeats the same things thats the jack pot, if they do things randomly or periodically that is unusual to them then you can dismiss it as being caused by something outside of their usual personality.
    I have lived with a Narcissist for the past 18 months and only now have I realised for certain they are one after essentially analysing their actions over the past year and a half. I wasn't certain before and didn't want to make any unfair assumptions, however now due to seeing repeated patterns I am 100% certain they are.
    Be careful not to jump to conclusions too soon without making a proper judgement and analysis of someone over a reasonably long period of time. Humans are complex, and although we may show signs you could occasionally get things wrong or read into something the wrong way. Just a piece of advice.

      There was a commenter that didn’t like Andrew Tate and commented on her dislike. Naturally, others replied and pushed back. One of them asked her if she was “fatherless”. Of course, she felt entitled to her opinion and pushed back on every commenter that replied. Yet, she found one commenter smoking a 🚬. The commenter asked what does he mean when he does this, to which he replied he was merely smoking.
      She scoffed at the commenter smoking, telling him to “BrEaThE AiR!”, but the smoker was unmoved and told her she was upset. She obviously was anxious to hear the smoker’s opinion, but gave the illusion that she was in a good mood. So, the commenter decided to test the smoker and asked him why she indeed was upset.
      Several minutes later, the commenter apologized to the smoker upon hearing his explanation and said he was right, but the smoker felt no need for an apology, but advised her not to let petty comments disturb her peace of mind. Both commenters left in good terms.

    I really enjoyed this conversation, Robert. I just found out about you on NYE. I’m a bit late in discovering you and I just bought all of your books. My goal for 2023 is to learn a lot from you because I just like the way you present your thoughts. So clear, concise, and thoughtful-not a lot of word salad. I spent a lot of time trying to understand Jordan Peterson. While I do think he’s an intelligent man, I have to say that I get confused by the points he’s trying to get across that his big vocabs have lost their meaning to me. You are my cup of tea. Wishing you a wonderful, 2023, Robert. Looking forward to learning more from you. 🙏

I love Robert Greene's body of work, and many people buy books from ex-intelligence officers so that they become fluent in this "language of the body."

    Im really a big fan of Robert Greene,his work has changed my life ,personally I faced alot trauma when I lost my Dad which made me Isolate myself from people and kept viewing the world as a bitter place and this took a toll on my social relationships with people,I would try and get new friends but I would suddenly break the relationship not because something bad happened but I would always have an illusion someone would abandon me(as my Dads death) so i would abandon them first before they abandoned me so my social relationships wasn't great .Ever since I read the laws of human nature ive started understanding what motivates people's actions and stopped bieng personal and self absorbed with people , i also noticed I'm very empathetic and im able to read peoples emotions which makes me avoid saying things that can hurt people and this has taken a whole dynamic in my relationships.THANKS ROBERT GREENE

    To quote Mark Twain : “Action speaks louder than words but not nearly as often.”. I always believed everything you need to know about a person is in their behaviour but that hasn’t stopped me from feeling bad or questioning how my own behaviour may have contributed to someone behaving badly towards me. As an overly sensitive person, I go to extreme lengths not to tread on peoples toes. And even when I know I did nothing wrong, it doesn’t stop me doubting and questioning myself. This is the first time I am here listening to Robert Greene and feeling I have found the missing pieces to the puzzle. I can’t wait to read his books and to listen to more of his content. Thank you!

  • @stevehoran6132

    100 % agree with this if their is one thing that doesn't lie its body language, and genuine displays of emotions. I also think you need to take into consideration the context that surrounds such because body language can be deceiving in the form of the nuance to the interaction. Context is king socially, and the rules that follows can be interpretation of another person's state. Toxic in one situation is justified in another. Kind and genuine can be a rouse to get power.

    • @catatafish22
      @catatafish22 Рік тому

      I'm on the spectrum too, it sucks because our behaviour aways comes off as rude and aloof. There's a fine line between shyness and rudeness. We'll always be misunderstood as being cold and emotionless, but we're really not. We just show our compassion in different ways. Also, look on the bright side - we're neurodivergent, so we see the world in a unique way. Did you know a large portion of people who work in STEM are aspies? Unique thinkers have a great impact on the world. I think many creative geniuses are on the spectrum as well because neurodivergence = creative thinking. Be proud of your uniqueness and don't be afraid to be the eccentric one who stands out from the crowd. Most normies wish they were born with the ability to deviate from conventional thinking/behaviour... everyone want's to be special and aspies are special by nature. Embrace it :)

    • @alaskaface7147
      @alaskaface7147 11 місяців тому

      Me too. Most normies seem predisposed to misjudge me because I often have to manually control my facial expressions and tone of voice in social interactions. To get around this, I simply try to spend more time with others like me who don’t mind that I don’t give the “right” cues, who just understand my intentions naturally because they’re the same way inside. It makes for much easier, deeper, and more meaningful relationships 🥰

We reveal ourselves in so many ways and I’ve put far too much weight on the words of others while looking at their actions and expressions as a lesser cousin. Thank you again.

    I'm so socially uncalibrated I nearly feel bad even being around people because I just cannot express myself naturally in many of the ways Robert Greene describes. I feel like I have "dead eyes" and fake smiles for absolutely everything, not that I'm a narcissist as I'm extremely empathetic, but I guess I've spent so much time isolated I can't relate to peoples positive emotions outwardly in terms of body language and tone of voice. I've completely agreed with what people have said and they wonder if I'm being sarcastic or not, they can't tell what I'm thinking or feeling, many people assuming I'm mad or irritated when I never am. But I don't have any idea how to fix this either. I feel things so deeply but express feelings so awkwardly.

    • @isaiahexile
      @isaiahexile Рік тому +1

      @@avertingapathy3052 It's hard to say, what seems most noticeable is how I feel which I can control usually through my mindset. When I have love and harmony for everyone in my mind people seem more happy to talk to me and seem friendlier. While if I'm a little sad or feeling unwell it's exactly the opposite and people seem to reflect it back at me.
