Thanks, Bebop, for listing the traits of the Narcissist.
The person I knew was a "textbook" case, if there ever was one, and fit all the examples you cited.

Sixblairs, I belonged to a very helpful forum for people recovering from relationships with Narcissists. If you look on Yahoo or MSN groups, and type in the word, Narcissism, several groups will come up. Unfortunately, the one to which I belonged, and which helped me immensely, is no longer accepting new members, but there are others which can help, I'm sure.
