It is estimated that one in every seven people has significant narcissistic tendencies. A Narcissist is characterized by selfishness, involving a sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, and a need for admiration.
If a narcissist performs an act of kindness, for whatever reason, such as giving a cold person a jacket, or donating a million dollars to a food bank, is that act invalid?
We may not like the narcissist, but we can still applaud the act.
By the way, experts in such matters say the best way to deal with narcissists is to simply leave them alone.
Do not try to argue with, plead with, or try to appease narcissists. They are practiced in conniving ways since as early as they could speak. Unless you are a practiced narcissist also, you can’t win. And if you are, all you can hope for is a draw in which you both don’t get what you want.
