6. Do you genuinely believe that your opinions are facts and they supersede what other people think?
Narcissists struggle with simple things like deciding where to go on vacation, what’s the right thing to do on holidays, or which political view is correct. They think they know the answer to almost everything, believing their opinion is the only truth. Instead of asking for your opinion, they act like, “I don’t care about your thoughts; mine are the only ones that matter.” This self-righteousness comes from their big ego and false belief that they know everything. They strongly feel entitled to say everyone else is wrong and unimportant compared to them.

7. If you hate me so much, why do you keep coming back?
The narcissist will never tell you that they keep coming back because they need supply and cannot survive without it. They need you. Instead, they will make it about you and say something like, ‘I keep coming back because I pity you,’ or ‘I know you get sad, and that hurts me, which is why I keep coming back.’ They won’t tell you that it makes them feel superior every time you suffer and let them back in. They love to be needed, especially by you. They allow you to be emotionally intertwined with them and cannot let go. It makes them feel important and powerful.

In real reality, their need for supply makes them more dependent than a codependent. In a nutshell, they are not able to answer any question that has something to do with reflection, realization, and correction. They cannot look within, so they just react and reflect.
