Nobody in our side of the family is in contact with him anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294621 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:30:15 +0000 Cchoi4 1294621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to work for one big time. But I quit 3 years ago so no more seeing him!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294604 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:23:44 +0000 LuLu Mom 1294604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HAHA okay she's not in my "inner" circle but I have a friend of a friend who I secretly laugh at whenever we have together. She reminds me SO much of the Friends episdoe with Monica &amp; Phoebe's old friend Amanda...she is a dead ringer. If I didn't laugh I would cry ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294588 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:17:30 +0000 Greentea 1294588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How is it being defined? People that think they are superior and always criticize others without looking at themselves? That is hard to deal with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294585 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:16:45 +0000 shopaholic 1294585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294567 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:13:27 +0000 spaniellove 1294567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294564 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:12:46 +0000 pui 1294564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294557 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:09:05 +0000 jhd 1294557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Some family members! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1294531 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:01:01 +0000 deactivated_account 1294531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I don't really think its something that I need to handle. Although I cannot currently rid myself of this person, other people around me also know of this person's narcissism and we alternately laugh about it, complain about it and use it to our advantage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293585 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 09:16:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 1293585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. It's difficult when they're family that you can't just cut out of your life like friends. I try to keep them at arms distance and maintain boundaries as best as I can. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293547 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 08:59:56 +0000 irene 1293547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>FIL - but he doesn't really focus on himself. He just naturally thinks he is superior than everyone else and use his time to criticize others. I guess I would say he focus on criticizing others because he is all great himself. Does that make him a narcissist?</p> <p>Other than that, not really. I couldn't think of any. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293515 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 08:46:59 +0000 nana87 1293515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep!

If it was any more, I don't know that we'd still be friends! (It's that exhausting) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293495 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 08:37:22 +0000 JoJoGirl 1293495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OH yes.</p> <p>ETA: @MsLipGloss: sounds familiar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293492 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 08:36:50 +0000 MsLipGloss 1293492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Maintaining boundaries is difficult because the boundaries are somewhat fluid . . . I don't want to *punish* someone for behavior that hasn't yet occurred, but at the same time, I can't ignore history (forgive, but not forget). Self-preservation--more accurately, LO preservation--is of the utmost importance. It's a job that I hate doing, but that must be done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293408 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 07:35:55 +0000 blackbird 1293408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293393 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 07:06:50 +0000 mamainprogress 1293393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and unfortunately I'm related to them :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293362 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 06:11:25 +0000 .twist. 1293362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, two of them who are close in my family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293345 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 04:40:40 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1293345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope!

She thinks she is God's gift to the family but she spoils my DD rotten and genuinely loves her so I could never have any ill feelings towards her. She really is pretty though and can be super funny too. It's amazing what good looking people can get away with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-any-narcissists-in-your-life#post-1293210 Fri, 20 Dec 2013 00:05:26 +0000 lemondrop 1293210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of my bff's has some narcissistic tendencies when it comes to dating, but ultimately he is an awesome person.
