A Momentary Lapse Into Weakness
What weakens the narcissist, why and what is his response?
What is empathy to him?
What is control to him?

HG, what are your feelings toward your younger self? At one point, long ago, you had the capacity for empathy, yes? I was thinking on this yesterday so I wanted to ask. I know there is no empathy now, but do you feel anything for the child that you were? Maybe a question for the next Q & A…
I do not recall any emotional empathy.
When you say younger self, what age are you referring to?
Childhood. Say 5-11 years old. Do you see weakness that sickens you or do you see a vulnerable child that you wish you could protect? Or something else entirely? I know the past can’t be changed, but I wondered if you were capable of empathy for yourself? Your younger self.
I prefer who am I now.
Thank you, HG.
You are welcome, MB.
HG Do you think you prefer who you are now because you feel completely in control now without all those nasty relatives betraying you and being hurtful?
I do.
HG….I guess that is something that N’s and E’s can agree on. We want and need to be in control of our own lives. I understand that the N needs to control EVERY aspect of theirs, but I think every human being needs to feel that they have say in their life.
Thank you
True, to an extent, but our need for control is far greater than yours, how threats to our control manifest differently than to yours and our response is vastly different to yours. We always needs control, you do not.
