Narcissistic Idealization

 


https://danielryancotlerauthorandpoet.godaddysites.com/

Narcissistic idealization is the process of viewing oneself as perfect or superior, as well as projecting those same qualities onto others. This is a common trait among individuals with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). Here are a few examples of narcissistic idealization:


1. Self-image: Narcissists often see themselves as special, unique, and more important than others. They may exaggerate their achievements, talents, or possessions in order to appear superior.


2. Partners and romantic relationships: Narcissists often idealize their romantic partners or love interests, portraying them as perfect and putting them on a pedestal. They may also become infatuated with celebrities or other high status individuals.


3. Acquaintances and relationships: Narcissists may idealize those they view as important, such as a boss, mentor, or coworker. This can lead to sycophantic behavior and a desire to be close to these individuals.


4. Children: Narcissistic parents may idealize their children as extensions of themselves, viewing them as the perfect embodiment of their own traits and qualities.


5. Objects and possessions: Narcissists may idealize their possessions, such as a car or house, seeing them as a reflection of their own status and importance.


Overall, narcissistic idealization involves a distorted perception of reality, where the individual sees themselves and others in an overly positive light. This can lead to a lack of empathy and an inflated sense of self-importance.

This concealment makes their toxic behaviors particularly insidious. Understanding these behaviors is essential for recognizing and protecting yourself from their harmful effects. The first toxic behavior of covert narcissists is hiding and concealing their true identity. They present themselves as caring and concerned individuals, but this is merely a manipulation tactic. Their apparent concern often feels phony or forced. Many targets of narcissists are empaths, who can detect this lack of genuineness through gut instincts and intuition. If you feel that something about their concern is off, it’s likely because it is. Recognizing this false concer...

Why do narcissist’s discard their partners

Narcissists discard their partners cruelly due to several psychological factors rooted in their personality disorder. Understanding these factors can shed light on their behavior and provide some clarity for those who have experienced such treatment. Lack of empathy is one of the defining traits of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). Narcissists often struggle to understand or care about the feelings of others. This makes it easy for them to discard partners without considering the emotional pain they cause. Objectification of partners is another common behavior. Narcissists typically view their partners not as individuals with their own needs and emotions but as objects that serve a purpose. When a partner no longer fulfills the narcissist’s needs—whether it be admiration, validation, or control—they are seen as disposable. Narcissists have a strong need for control. Discarding a partner cruelly can be a way for the narcissist to assert dominance and control. By leaving in a hars...
