Hi Divine1966

Well I think every real narcist is a jerk or how do you define a jerk? To me, it does not matter what is the exact scientific name for the specific mental condition that makes that person a behave like a jerk, but I doubt that a mentally really sane person can be a jerk.

A "jerk" is "not so bad" as a "narcist" is? I think there are narcists that, given the right circumstances, can be very harmless and friendly. I think that are just words from different "world", one is used for a person in personal experience and the other in clinical diagnosis, but it both describes a egocentric person with compulsive, negative actions towards other beings. Do you think a jerk decides to be a jerk?

Best wishes
David
