The Narcissist's BIGGEST Weaknesses

Narcissists like to act tough and inaccessible, making it seem impossible to understand or affect them. However, the opposite is true; they are more susceptible and sensitive than normal people. They are easily affected, influenced, and harmed, but you don't always see that because they have already studied and learned about you, giving them the upper hand and a position of power.

Because of this, they feel superior and believe they are unaffected by consequences or logical results. This way of thinking often puts them in situations that don't end well for them because they are reckless and impulsive. They are out of control, and whenever they pursue a relationship, it is always in a state of grandiosity to prove their desirability. This has nothing to do with you, yet they put in all this energy only to end up cheating on you or sabotaging the relationship in some way.

While they may have already proven their desirability, they now have to prove to themselves that they can do whatever they want and outsmart you by cheating. This validates them, making them feel smart because they managed to deceive you without you knowing. They believe they are above the standards of acceptable behaviour and can still do what makes them feel better about themselves, at least until they get caught.

We often don't see what they are doing or it doesn't make sense to us because we are not looking at it the way they are. They interpret reality from a psychotic and warped state of mind. To them, outsmarting you makes perfect sense because it validates their false self, a character that protects them from any slights or criticism. This character is always in effect, meaning they have to be dependent on something outside of themselves at all times. They can never be independent because their false self needs constant validation, requiring excessive attention, admiration, and praise.

This is one of their main weaknesses because anyone can pretend to cooperate with them to achieve their own goals, and the narcissist wouldn't even see it coming. They are blinded by their need for compliments and praise, making them easily convinced and persuaded. Even though they may act powerful and superior, they are actually very gullible and naive because they are only concerned about things that interest them. They just pretend to like what you like to extract your energy and attention.

They take all these chances because they believe they are invincible and untouchable, thinking nothing can take them down. They view themselves as expert manipulators and assume you can't see through their lies, even if you already know what they are doing and have all the facts. They can't see things from your perspective because they are heavily dependent on their illusions, which they use to distort your judgment.

Narcissists only succeed if you are insecure or doubt yourself. That is when you will fall victim to the illusions they use to entrap their victims. They can't always know what a person's reaction will be, so they often assume you are buying into their false character. They hate your independence and your ability to think for yourself, which is why they try to erode your intelligence. They don't want you to think; they want you to feel based on whatever they are displaying to you.

They assume this act will last as long as they need it to, which is why they don't tend to think ahead. They will never see what direction you are going to take as long as they think you are going along with their plan. They are too wrapped up in their fantasy, their delusions of grandeur, beauty, unlimited power, and success. They don't care much for morals, values, discipline, or truth because these things are all connected to reality, which is very harmful and damaging to a narcissist. They can't deal with things as they actually exist.

They need an idealistic version of reality to function, where they can believe nothing is unattainable or outside of their reach, no matter how unrealistic it may seem. They hold this belief that they can impose their order on the world instead of allowing things to play out naturally. They can't deal with things as they actually are; they need the fantasy. This makes it very easy to make them believe anything if you just sell them on something they want to believe about themselves or something that gives them a sense of importance. They won't even see it coming, but it will render them dependent on it.

Narcissists know this about themselves, which is why they are very cautious. They know there is nothing they can do if someone uses their own defense mechanisms against them. This is why narcissists tend to congregate around attractive and accomplished people. They believe they are superior to normal people and that normal people would never understand them. In their minds, they are special and entitled to special treatment at all times because they have an inflated ego to compensate for their low self-esteem.

They need to be around productive and accomplished people because they can't just be around the average person. It's not enough to feed their ego; they need that validation to feel important. This is one of their biggest weaknesses because, unlike a normal person, they can't regulate their self-esteem from within. They can't tell themselves they are special or that they have done a good job. They have to manipulate and deceive people to get that feeling of satisfaction that we can generate effortlessly from within.

Their ego doesn't do that; it doesn't do anything. It is heavily dependent on external validation, and they can't live without it. This is why they can never be alone; they have to get validation from other people at all times. They can't satisfy themselves or be happy with themselves, so they can't love themselves. If they can't love themselves, they can't love anyone else, which is their ultimate weakness. It leaves them at the whim of other people's opinions of them and prevents them from ever experiencing real happiness or inner peace.
