I will never ever get married again. I know what narcissism is all about. It's stupid to find another man good or bad. I will not gamble the rest of my remaining life. Enough is enough. It's not worth it.
This video about books is not a good idea at all . Remember why people are prevented from reading ? To educate themselves . Good people will read good or bad books to educate themselves to be good , bad people just will reaad them to hurt people .
Many years ago I was with the worst narcissist I've ever known. She was a nursing student. A health care professional getting a master's degree. It was getting more and more obvious that she had a severe mental problem and her lies were starting to fall apart. So after a intimate situation she had a very strange crying reaction. These were becoming almost every time we got close. And I was learning how to ring all her bells so to speak . So after a really weird reaction I asked her if she'd been molested as a child. She did respond. Said she'd had a bad nightmare and lightly mentioned a character in her dream. Years later I was learning about narcissism. Her mother was a author. I checked out a review of one of her mothers books for teens and young girls. Bingo there was the character in the nursing students bad dream. And much much more. This of course is just the tip of the iceberg. Early childhood development of personality is extremely complex. And things that are very damaging might not be seen outside of the families false public images. And that's what it really is. A very false image that manipulates and hides the truth.
Definitely American Psycho and The Dark Knight. I knew one that loved doing impressions of Patrick Bateman and The Joker and had illusions of grandeur he was gonna move to L.A. and be an actor (he had no training or experience) he ended up living in his parents abandoned house and becoming a 🏳️⚧️y
the religious covert narc weapons the bible and twists it and her husband is enabler and entitled as well. Wolves in sheeps clothing and not in christ like they profess too much. They create evil then gaslight and act like nothing happened. Never accountable and always has to have last word, especially in a so called bible sermon
Brideshead Revisited is an interesting novel. The matriarch of the family is useing religeon to guilt-shame everyone in the family,and slowly it destroys them all. It's very subtle.
Nowadays on the internet you can find a lot of channels discussing topics like, "How to save yourself from empaths"....How to silent and discard empaths....How to use their empathy.....Beware of empathetic personality......Empaths are enemies....lists can go on and on .....I was shocked when I found out about all this..... It's evil !!!
@ same There is an old RU-vid video of her at an institute that she worked in and she’s being hailed as a hero for the mentally ill. They loved her and my dad married her. He was the Dr on staff she was volunteering. Very young and pretty. They had no idea. It’s before I was born. She is believed by everyone. I feel so broken.
Oh, my. The psychopath ex-husband studied Carnegie’s book like none other. He was dyslexic and a slow reader but studied this book like it was his atheist version of the Bible. His favorite RU-vid channels were MGTOW-themed and he was all about Dexter.
Manuals on how to live,mind over matter etc, is it any wonder there lives are such a facade,and act,a pretend,a falsehood,a script to follow come what may or who gets in there way! As I've witnessed the debris of broken discarded lives in her wake including my own,thank god I'm out of a four&half year relationship,I do feel so sorry for her.
@@narcabusecoach I remember Sam Vaknin saying that Greene's books are for psychopaths... And I remember CS Joseph recommending those books so sooo highly
I have a booktube channel and I this is an outstanding video. I wondered why these books are praised so often and now I have an insight into the people who recommend them.
It’s not the books that are inherently bad; it is how a narcissist exploits the information. One should be aware of tactics used by your enemies and frenimies.
Then they read 4 agreements and spiritual books for gaslighting - to say how emotionally and spiritually we are inferior. But have to give it to them , they have this insane ability to memorize books with 1 read and regurgitate with zero introspection!
My mother didn't read any of these books. She "wrote her own agenda. Me first! She would compliment herself about looks and education (went to 11th grade while siblings went to only 4th) Quit school due to depression in 1929.
I don't know whether he read these books or not but he told me that he loves reading self help book and was insisting me to start reading it( when we were friends). I cannot read a self help book rather fictional story because I can connect with story and character then some tips in a book. He is very knowledgeable overall so I thought that he is smart. But when is real side was exposed after we were in relationship, he is the stupidest person ever known to me
The Taming of the Shrew was loved by my rageaholic narcissist abuser husband. Also, TWO loved this strange book: Nasty People They loved to feel like victims of ME
OMG, I read two: Carnegie and Sun Tzu because the administration course...but It was many years ago and I didnt took seriously Sun Tzu. Later I met other profound and serious authors. Theres a book, called 10 Books that Screwed up the World of Benjamin Wiker. Its interesting that one of those books can impact people. They always has a facade of a Sciptures, bit in reality, the majory didnt read. Just put a quote in a social media.
The Prince The 48 Laws of Power How to win friends and influence All religious books are tool of manipulations to rationalize their acts The Acts of war Kundera's Unbeatable being
The sicko narcissist I was involved with told me when we first met that he majored in Business Administration in university but his real interest was psychology. Then he proceeded to tell me how his last girlfriend emotionally manipulated him. Ladies, beware when a man tells you this!
Danish Bashir, what about these books? I’m 98% sure that a close person is a narcissist, and after watching your video an hour ago, I texted them asking for their 5 top favorite books, and they mentioned these five books. Please reply so I can confirm the remaining 2% whether they are a narcissist. Crime and punishment Brother Karamazov Beyond good and evil The picture of Dorian gray Sapiens
Not surprised at the 5. I had a cheating bf who insisted i read Kundera's Unbearable Lightness of Being as a way to... understand why he had to sleep around, i think. (Never read it, so I dunno)
Third nex had been a medical student in the 70's. He took some psychology. He liked Alfred Kinsey. Eww. He's also very knowledgeable in the Bible, can quote many scriptures.
I just looked him up. He died in the 50's! Why was he fascinated in the 70's. Come to think of it, the only thing I know about his exes are their habits in the bedroom. Apparently that's all he cared about. I didn't know Kinsey was such a creep!
