3. Boundaries? What Are Those?

It’s common for people to have transparent boundaries or often cross those of others, but for narcissists, these behaviors are the norm. The line between themselves and you is blurry in the minds of narcissists. They resemble little kids quite a bit. Everyone shares their thoughts, feelings, and desires, and they assume that everything is theirs to possess. They own the world.

When told no, narcissists feel startled and extremely humiliated. A narcissist will go to considerable lengths to obtain what they want from you and may use many tactics, including manipulation or sulking. These are all typical and extremely normal narcissistic behaviors.

    My younger sister is the definition of a narcissists and is also executor over my parents trust. Of course she is daddy’s little girl and yeah for me. I have had to permanently distance myself from my family for self preservation and have been leaning on the lord in prayer to heal from the hurt that she has targeted me with for her self gain. The lord has blessed me by providing more than I need and it is a true tragedy and I truly feel sorry for her. I would not wish this scenario on anyone.

    We can’t all be at the front of the line. All of us must wait our turn. No one in that line is less considered than the other.

    As a citizen of this Nation, I look back to a time when bipartisanship in Washington served a healthy, vigorous debate that, overall, the outcomes gave positive results for the country, while Quit pro-quo was the basis for both sides of the isle feeling heard and had been given due considerations. Ultimately the citizens had dreams and hopes for the Country we all loved and respected. Progress since those days appears through a progressive lens, and has fantastic intention for bettering what our parents and grandparents held as progress. Most of the administrations since, the lawmakers, the supreme courts and FBI, DOJ, and in the name of social Justice, and what it means for women too, maintaining choices for themselves, has developed to a new level of not being heard. The result of many citizens not being heard, naturally heightens emotion on both sides. Today, healthy debate and contentment is rare in societal norm. People from every walk of life are frustrated as never before, to a point that People now demand the right of way for their cause, sort of kin to a head on collision where people in both vehicles might experience destruction, death and blame the other. In between what might have been, and what has actually come to pass for us all. Perhaps we can all agree to view how Americans can recreate acceptable lifestyles according to their own conscience , and can know that together all of our aspirations without judgement or control of our citizenry, offer everyone increased security, cooperation, and healthy bipartisanship. With absence of taking offense one with another. None of us will receive everything on our wish lists. That’s a fact…however an err of entitlement , constant demands, and viewing our societal health from a view through the lenses of every cause, has created an endless stream of discontentment instead of healthy progress. There has been created an overwhelming number of causes that are becoming non negotiables. Let us not forget the give and take with acceptable compromises. Let us give ourselves more breathing room to consider all viewpoints, and together adopt a system of governance that will embrace a non perfect order of things. As time passes, and we remain hopeful, we regulate ourselves according to prosperity in all things, regardless of differing needs. Let us together put a stop to unjust laws and policies that are the groundwork of so much conflict. We might do very well to abandon dishonesty, broken promises, taking and dishing out offensive behaviors. Never never lose sight of our futures. Be kind. Use common sense approaches… agree to disagree

    Dealing with my daughter’s narcissistic boyfriend. It’s hurting my grandchildren and me. Oh yes it’s always everyone else is at fault except him. You can’t live with a narcissist in your life and try to keep your own sanity.

    how sad it is that in today’s world we make everything political when our personal lives are falling apart as a result of other people’s behavior and our turning away from God. All politicians have to have a level of confidence that exceeds the citizens they serve. They have to be extremely confident and stand firm for what is right and wrong for the country. We need to pray for those who have a desire to serve this country. SERVE THIS COUNTRY. Not the global economy. Who preserve the constitution and more important turn back to acknowledging the one true GOD of the BIBLE who has abundantly blessed this nation.
    Narcissism is destructive not only to the narcissist but to those who are affected by their behavior. Best to pray and ask the LORD to give you wisdom on how to best respond to them and pray HE changes them. It is a spiritual war out there…

    Trump may be a Narcissist OR have many of those tendencies apparent in his initiatives of his person. Still, most of us humans self indulged to our own interests and prisms, including those who are Trump’s critics, have some Narcissistic tendencies, no matter occupation. Those who vote intelligently in this Republic form of democracy, vote the man’s proposed or actionable leadership policies and skill capabilities to do the country well; his/her personality, faults or prettiness notwithstanding.

    my mom and my daughter are narcisists. They bothh brag about their accomplishments but actually have very low self esteem. Everything is everyone elses problem, they are at fault for nothing- everything someone elses fault. in my daughters case, i am raising one of her children. my daughter has a violent and sudden temper. My mother over exagerates everything- like when shes washing the dishes she counts the forks and spoons and plates etc. instard or washing the dishes she is exhausted because she had to do 21 forks and7 plates and all the frying pans (2) ten bowls etc. this is to make pne feel sorry for her. Believe me- they are no fun to live with.

    Just ask Joe. He’s got all the answers. Dividing our country, relying on our enemies for energy, crime everywhere, runaway inflation, open border with fentanal everywhere and some allies going along with China which is another disaster for our country.

    Seems to me that everyone has different degrees of narcissistic behavior and traits.
