I’ve had people make false promises in order to get something from me (like sex). I recognized them as users. Were they all narcissists?
I didn’t fall for their rouses. I gave it right back to them, playing along, until they got frustrated and that was that.
There was this one guy who was most likely married, telling me he wanted to ‘keep’ me. So I called him from the sales office of the most expensive penthouse and told him he could buy me that one! Needless to say, nothing happened.
My former bff would talk fondly about our future together in the assisted living, when we are old. But as soon as she was unforgivably rude, she never apologized and never called me again at all.
Did that count as future faking?
