Like I said in the remainder of my post, there's nothing skillful about exploiting a codependent person. NPD is not a skill, it's a personality disorder. I've read a lot of posts where people act as if narcissists are something special. Let's get back to reality, please. Tickling the ego of a narcissist is sad, just as sad as their own inability to see how damaged they are.
