44 Can’t-Miss Signs You’re Dealing with a Covert Narcissist
Sometimes the biggest signs of all are in you
You know not every person with NPD is the same.
Sure, they share a lot of commonalities, and their behaviors can be very predictable, but a grandiose narcissist and a covert narcissist, for example, look entirely different.
While a grandiose narcissistic personality may be obvious, a covert, or vulnerable, narcissistic personality is nearly invisible to the naked eye, unless you know exactly where to look.
Yet, being able to identify someone with any personality disorder or toxic behavior is key to choosing who to engage.
Often, through love bombing and a trauma bond, this choice is eliminated for you, the victim. You’ve been ensnared. You no longer have a conscious choice.
Recognizing the signs is key to avoiding the inevitable heartache and despair that comes from the relationship with a covert narcissist.
Imagine you’re a bird, observing your life from a bird’s eye view. At 30,000 feet, sometimes the world becomes so clear.
Notice attitudes, feelings, and behavior in the other person. Notice them in yourself.
