A covert narcissist is someone who appears shy, sensitive, and withdrawn.
Nevertheless, on the inside, they are actually vain, self-centered, and manipulative.
What is covert narcissism
They are often very good at appearing modest, which allows them to take advantage of people who are more trusting or vulnerable.
Despite their isolation, the covert narcissist, like the grandiose narcissist, is afraid of loneliness.
They will not directly demand that you go out and communicate only with him, but he will do everything to make sure that this is the case.
How to tell if someone is a covert narcissist
Typically, narcissistic traits include a strong sense of self-importance, fantasies of fame or fame, exaggeration of one's own abilities, an insatiable need for others to admire him, a tendency to exploit others, and a lack of empathy.
Why is a covert narcissist dangerous
The victim of a covert narcissist is made to feel guilt, pity, shame, dependence, insignificance and powerlessness as the narcissist infects their psyche with these negative emotions.
We previously talked about high-functioning anxiety.
