Ok so when can I meet you and see for myself? 😉
Do narcissists have the insight to understand they are weak?
I grew up naturally independent and learned weakness that I have from them. The neediness, hysterics, crying, banging on like a victim. I joined in their conversations out of boredom and so it’s a language I can speak but isn’t my nature. To hear them look at me and call me weak is laughable.
I am not weak. The Lesser and Mmid-Range Narcissists who are not weak do not have the insight to see it.
HG you know I like you and have respect for you but I have to be honest…. narcs are weak. Someome who needs to feed on someone else is weak.
You are entitled to express your view KT. Some narcissists are weak, not all. If you ever met me, you would not regard me as weak and indeed in certain situations you would be tearfully grateful for my strength.
I think this song fits well with your post, HG. Your post reminds of it it so districtly. “I Want To Break Free”
Is this projection?
The narcissist is aware of his own weakness and hates it (= being needy and dependent on other people to get fuel, to get approval, to boost their self-worth and to maintain their façade almost on a daily basis). He projects it onto the Empath. The Empath’s weakness remembers him of his own limitations.
“I told you that the next time you (insert ridiculous manufactured accusation here) would be the LAST.” That’s the most recent voice mail I got, a pathetic hoover attempt. I haven’t shown him what he believes is his due, my weakness. Now the grasping for anything I ever did to show backbone or defy his “orders” becomes a way for him to shift all the blame onto me. This was the latest hoover trick, left in a voice mail from an unknown number. I didn’t even listen to the rest. Note the use of multiple tools at the same time. Evil, he is.
Except when we’re not weak, when everything we do only further asserts integrity and strength. It still makes me laugh at how resented I am for that.
You dont. Need ‘my weakness,’ darking, you just discarded it

So a love/hate relationship.
it’s not weakness… that’s only how your lens lets you see it.
We survive anything you dish at us, we heal, we thrive once disconnected from your kind. We need to tower to isolate our inner-most self, we bleed a lot, shed tears, get hurt but we rise from those ashes. We give up more then anyone in order to try and make the world a better place. We are not weak. We are genuine, we open the windows and let the sun shine on our feelings because the world is better for it. There is a strong difference there. It is not weakness, it is strength. Just as a seed in the ground waits for the right time to grow and can break through concrete sidewalks as it does, like water erodes rock over time but makes a passage for itself, as a calm gentle breeze can become a tornado/hurricane.
it may not always be graceful or dignified per your terms, regal and royal, but it is very much noble.
need no* tower
beautifully said, so true..
Your need for fuel is my strength, because I don’t need it.
As always – thank you
Pleasure.
God bless her! She is skin and bones. She’s beautiful still from what I can tell.
what do you mean by weakness?
Crying, clinging, questioning, whining, crumbling and so forth.
HG, so if the appliance is demonstrating strong character, does she earn respect from the narc? Thank you!
No, just interest and the desire to erode that character.
But that’s how you know we care. Nobody puts themselves through that when they don’t give a big pile of poo.
Indeed.
It is like looking down on the poor but you can’t live without them because you need them to work for you
Yes, goes both ways.
Then stop being a leach
😂
They are back! Thanx Mr T
Pleasure.
