What if someone is competitive and he says that he wants to be the best. It doesn't mean he's a narcissist. The man can be a great guy outside of place where he compete with others (like work). Your topic kinda reminds me all those guys who sell best pickup lines THAT WORK ON EVERY GIRL. It doesn't work like that
No offense, but this was taken directly from a podcast on how to tease out a narcissist when you are dating. I am not knocking on you personally, but since I married one and since he's harmed me incredibly badly and and has abused me, I am sure as heck am going to avoid dating another narcissist in the future.

How's your therapy going?
