Can you spot an extremely narcissist i. e. a grandiose, self-submerged, entitlement seeking and exploiting individual, just by observing its behavior? Both self-confessed and unidentified narcissists are all around us and we’re likely to face them at almost every location and in different situations in our entire life.
Like every other individual living with and around us in the same society, an extremely narcissist individual too makes for living and struggles for survival like all of us. We all need to form different types of relationships for the same. Then what’s so wrong with an extremely narcissist individual after all?
Everybody needs to sustain itself through adversities, challenges and dangers which is the fundamental necessity of every living and flourishing creature and not just human beings. One needs to develop and posses self-love, self-respect and self-worth for the same. It gives us confidence, strength and social value.
Only thing is that few of us are extremely self-loving and entitlement seeking individuals and this turns them into manipulators, controllers, liars, cheaters, scape-goaters and abusers. Principally what every extremely narcissist individual does most of time is attracting attention of others towards oneself then ultimately exploit, manipulate and control others for serving its own interest.
They have a definite plan, strategy or mission to out stand in the crowd without any considerable contribution to the society or the community. They look very charming, intelligent, smart and tidy by their appearance. At some extent, an extremely narcissist men or women standout in being a magnet for members of an apposite gender and especially those with genuine low self-esteem.
Unlike open-ended and “away from body” gestures, they gesticulate in such way that their hands and palms face their own bodies most of the time. They try to accentuate their presence and make maneuvers that saliently convey to others, “Hey, I’m here! Aren’t you looking at me?”. Also, they would invade your space suddenly and remind that you didn’t treat them as per their own expectations.
They would raise their voice unnecessarily to make their presence felt without any hesitation about their contribution to the noise pollution. They would put on glossy or gleaming cloths and carry costly accessories so that people should praise them. They are prince or princess in their very own eyes, regardless of how others really regard them as.
Some of the behavioral characteristics of an extremely narcissist men or women, like trying to attract attention of others in crowd or raising oneself above others, can be observed in an individual who is courting or wooing partners.
Only difference is that the courting or flirting individuals pays equal attention at potential partner, remains submissive yet appealing, tries to coordinate with movements and expressions of deserving partner (i. e. “mirroring”) and appears to inviting or accepting.
On the contrary, an extremely narcissist individual tries to overrate oneself and creates a scene or a drama of having a great level of self-esteem which the individual completely lacks in the first place. If they're dating or courting somebody then they would try to manipulate them to spill out the words of appreciation and praise about themselves.
Another remarkable characteristic of a highly narcissist individual is that he/she tries to take credit of what has been achieved by others. They would come forth to shake their hands with you and say, “It was only me to encourage you from the beginning.” or “It has happened because of my company.” or “It happened only because I greeted you in the beginning”.
They wouldn't be able to show facial expressions that match with their words and actions while appreciating, admiring and praising others. Also, they wouldn’t make statements like “Didn’t I tell you that you could make it?” or “You had all necessary qualities and the potential!”. They would keep reminding you about what ‘favors’ they had done(?).
