Though speaking from personal experience of someone who has the mind of a predator, this is something I would theoretically do. When targeting someone I wouldn't put any of the focus on myself. I would put it all on him/her/them. So yes, that'll mean honing in on his/her mistakes and gaslighting the hell out of him/her if they try to bring up my own mistakes.

You know it's funny, I've been accused of gaslighting by someone who was gaslighting me. I've also been told my whole family gaslit me so I'm sure I learned all their tricks except my honesty prevents me from gaslighting. I really appreciate your honesty. It is so refreshing to be able to talk about this with someone who is not the victim of a narcissist. That gets so played out. In the thrivers community it's understood and accepted we have fleas. It really gets on my nerves when victims of narcissists don't get over it. The ironic thing is now I'm helping all 3 communities: cluster Bs, friends and family and survivors. I have to be super nonjudgmental . I think you are one of my favorite people on psych central.
