Narcissists Make Everything About Them | Narcissist Talking About Themselves

The narcissist talking about themselves is nothing new They can go on and on about who they are, how great they are, and how much better they are when compared to everyone else. Do narcissists only talk about themselves or does it just seem to be that way? The narcissists are self centered and this leads to them thinking only in the context of themselves. They don’t consider others and how they might contribute to the relationship so the narcissist is left with only focusing on themselves. The narcissists make everything about them. Narcissistic abuse is part of their control and manipulation and in this video I discuss why the narcissist only thinks of themselves. The relationship with the narcissist is a toxic relationship. There is emotional abuse and with gaslighting and the silent treatment the narcissist can always make it about them. If you think “my boyfriend won’t listen to me” then consider whether you feel heard and valued in the relationship. Someone who only talks about themselves isn’t necessarily a narcissist, but this is something to consider when you interact with someone where it is always about them and never about you.

You literally can’t get a word in edgewise. The narc loves to hear themself talk. I literally put the phone down and walk away to come back to pick up the phone and the narc was still talking on and on without picking up on social queues or nothing…just talking nonstop. I eventually hung up and the narc called me back to say why my phone hung up 😅

My ex narc actually said to me, “Your opinion isn’t valued or appreciated.” Wow.

[michelleelks]

One thing that drove me crazy about my narc is that he loved talking about himself SOO much, that he would tell me the same story over and over and over and always acted like it was the first time he’d told me. It got incredibly embarrassing! But yet he would put his dad down, saying that he didn’t like talking to him because he told him the same stories all the time. But in reality, his father is an elderly man and can’t help that he repeats what he says. Narcs love to fault people for doing the very things they do themselves. A HUGE tell tell sign!

You are LITERALLY describing my ex to me! I lived (wasted) seven years of my life with him! And everything you are saying, I went through! There is never a two way conversation with them. They are the only ones that get to talk, and yes, it’s is ALWAYS about THEM!🙄

This is my mom. She literally brings everything back to herself. I don’t know how she does it.

[katherinekennedy]

my guy always talks about how he is so smart and better than everyone else at work.

[MzGumby]

I can literally say what I'm experiencing, and I get ignored, talked over, or the conversation turns into what they're dealing with. I also always take up for them when people get disrespectful, but when it happens to me it's ignored, or treated like it's no big deal. Lately I've giving out the same energy I've been receiving, and that is showing their truer colors. Then people will disappear, and come back around like nothing has happened. I ignore it, and don't kiss up to them, and they say I'm acting off. No...I'm just tired of being a doormat, and treated like an inconvenience.
My ex from over ten years ago said, "Stop making it about you." All I did was relate to a similar experience her nephew was dealing with. She was overly involved in her nephews family issues. She had it in her mind that I was trying to keep her away from being around him. She's the one that mentioned he was inappropriately touching her. She refused to address it, or tell him it was wrong. She had no issue telling me everything I did was wrong, or that I was emotionally abusing her.

*Here is a very BIZARRE narcissist trait I've come across.*

Regarding my narc. boss... I will make a statement or a question about something or how I'm going to perform a particular task... he will always reply with " *NO* ... it's like this...."... he just said EXACTLY what I just said, but used different words & spin it. It's like he DID NOT LISTEN to what I just said. His brain is blocking me out while he's thinking about what HE WANTS to say. I can't count the number of times this has happened & I said out loud or to myself, "That;s exactly what I just said!"
It's hard to explain, but it's quite remarkable. I have never experienced this trait with any other person.
It's so difficult to explain that each time it happens, I was going to text myself verbatim of what just transpired/ what was said, so I could, refer to it, verbatim to try to describe it... but I figured I'm wasting my time. Who will listen?

He does not care what I have to say nor does he listen to me. It's a subconscious power trip, where he has to be in control & control every narrative.

When u share u have a fear of disease or fear of losing a job with a narc's, narc will silently ignore it, give it a gap of half an hour and then start talking about how bad his or her hair and skin is.. so the bad hair day of a narcissistic person is a much bigger topic than the narcissist's supplier losing a job..😢😢😢😢😢

[sista]

They act like nothing you do or what they do to you means nothing to them and everything your saying in this video is so true

[keithmcduffie]

Hi There!!! My narcissist does EXACTLY what you described. I start a conversation about someone else & within 3 sentences I'm hearing in total about how they did/would do/could do in that situation, not to mention, that Their way/ways of doing it is the only way Anybody With Any sense/intelligence/foresight or faculties WOULD do it. To do otherwise would Plainly illustrate that Whomever is a undisciplined with Whom no one of any stock would/should associate!!!!
Now Please pass the Grey Poupon!

They talk about themselves endlessly, and fabricating or embellishing stories to make themselves sound greater…is done without hesitation. And the unspoken deal they have - with you, is that YOU are expected to speak endlessly about them…as well. Constant praise and admiration must be loudly extended on an ongoing basis…or they will be highly offended by your lack of admiration. Never mind that they will never show even appreciation (much less, admiration) towards you…or anyone else. Unless, of course…they are doing it in exchange for expected reciprocity. The only thing they know how to dish out…is criticism. Such a joy to be around.

The one time i tell my problem a friend blatantly change the conversation

[BluebonnetShelley]

My husband of 35 years never shuts up. I get so sick of listening to him tell the same stories over and over. I usually just go in another room so I can ignore him. If I ever cut in, he acts like I’m not being respectful of “his turn” to talk. I stopped inviting couples over for dinner because the whole evening is just listening to my husband. I never get the chance to get to know any new friends because he dominates the conversation. Has absolutely zero self-awareness.

[bellaveda]

My ex was a narcissist, one thing he always did that was completely unfair to me in my opinion was always wake me up when I was still sleeping when he was ready to be up, it didn’t matter if I was in a deep sleep or not, he’d come forcefully pull me out of bed, and when I’d try and tell him not to, or that I wanted to sleep his defense always was that he was a morning person or he was ready to get up, as if I had to be on the same track as him, it was exhausting, being woken up for no reason

[marilynross]

He told me it is not about me. I just needed a little support during chemotherapy. I have to look to God for what I need. Sometimes I suffer alone and wait on God.😢

[greg]

This guy really said “I got 100% on every test, never went to class, never studied” like what??? He can’t even read! 😭😭

[gwendolynwehage]

This is a perfect description of our daughter and her husband, they are often rude to me but treat my husband like gold. They want me to know how much they love my husband and hate me. Because I have called them out about their behavior and bad attitude they target me and make sure I now they dislike me and love my husband.

[rahimi]

This is my mother. She just wants me to listen like a child. I told her she needs a dog and she got mad

[jeffrandolf]

My boss is a raging narcissist.
On jobsites, he'll talk about HIMSELF for an hour, during lunch. He controls the conversation amongst 5 or 10 people. At first I tried to engage in the conversation, however it is almost impossible to interject. He never stops to take a breath. Now I walk away & eat by myself.
If he comes up against another self aggrandizing narcissist, they'll talk for 2 hours, trying to "one up" eachother. Every topic that comes up, one of them has done it better than the other. Then he'll say, "Man I couldn't get away from that guy... HE talked my ear off." The irony & hypocrisy is off the charts.
Others have asked me "how I tolerate him, he never SHUTS UP?" And that I "must be a Saint, to put up with him everyday."
He's 60 years old now & hasn't done anything athletic for over 25 years.
Any sports topic that comes up, he's done it better than anyone in the room. I've literally heard him say "I'm a really great snow & water skier."
Last week the topic of Corn Hole, the game where you throw bean bags into a hole came up. My boss said "I'm really good at cornhole." Then proceeded to tell everyone about it.
Id like to believe I have gained empathy, humility & extreme patience by watching him. I do not want to be like him. I go out of my way to NOT BE LIKE HIM.
