You’ve probably had way more experience of narcissistic personalities than me, but I read this article about covert narcissism:
Covert Narcissist: Signs, Causes, and How to Respond
It can be more subtle apparently. Of course narcissistic behaviour can be a trauma response, in the case of your friend who experienced narcissistic abuse herself, although that’s not necessarily the case of course. |
Thank you, dear. I’ve read Grey rock is the best response to narcs. It’s feasible this gf has a trauma response and likely does if she was abused by her narc ex husband. Then again, maybe she’s the narc and is projecting that diagnosis onto him. That’s feasible too! Lol. What I do know is her behavior reminds me of a narc, and raised alarm bells.
