Are narcissists happy people generally?

How Narcissists React When They Think You’re Too Strong.

They convince you that they have honor, telling you how a sick friend asked them to make a $750 bank deposit for them but they were mugged and the money taken. Of course, the narcissist put their own money in the friend's account.

I say NO. Narcissists are living a lie, so how could they ever be happy?

What do you think of a parent telling their adult child to “keep their personal life to themselves” in relation to talking to them? No reason they should say that it was mean what should I do?

Very few narcissists ever achieve these dreams, instead they spend hours on the sofa playing video games, watching porn and eating junk food. They talk about starting an exercise program, going back to college, going to rehab or starting therapy to deal with their issues.

As for knowing what they want in life, Narcissists have no idea. Their dreams are always fantasies, some vague plan based on winning the lottery, marrying a billionaire, becoming a popular YouTuber, a famous singer, a movie star or winning it all in Las Vegas.

Narcissists have many secrets. And they hide them from everyone. No one gets to see their real self, especially in the beginning. If you are involved with one, you will eventually get glimpses at what lies beneath the mask but you won't believe it.

In short, narcissists can read people. They quickly assess what you want or need in your life and like a chameleon, that is who they will become. But it isn't who they are and it never will be.

The child can survive it, but immediately afterwards, they run outside and get as dirty as they can, rip their clothes and take out their aggressions on whoever crosses their path. That basically sums up why a narcissist behaves like they do. They have the emotional mentality of a child.

Narcissists have no idea who they are because they have worn a mask their whole life. They KNOW there is something wrong with them, something so bad they have to hide it, so they construct a “false self “ which they present to the public.

I liken that kind of life to bribing a small child with the promise of a new toy. Then dressing the kid to perfection and forcing them to sit still for two hours at a place they don't want to be.
