These people are not narcissistic. They have quite bad self esteem. They are self oriented out of worry. They don't seem to really want to hurt others. They are just so wrapped up in their own stuff that they forget other people's needs.

A common misunderstanding about narcissists is that they really believe they are as fab as they want others to believe. Truthfully, most narcissists are deeply and profoundly insecure.
