The 15 red flags you should look out for to tell if someone's a narcissist
While you are unlikely to know for sure if a friend or someone you meet has narcissistic personality disorder, there are some useful red flags that a person has narcissistic traits and may not be a good friendship match for you. There is also a huge range among people with narcissistic traits, some people may have other wonderful qualities, whereas other people may be far more draining, toxic, and/or difficult to deal with. In addition, some of these traits may be more obvious at first, and others may not be as observable until you know the person better.
Red flags that a potential friend has narcissistic traits:
1. The person only wants to talk about themselves or what is interesting to them.
2. When the person is willing to talk about you or your situation, it is only to give to you advice, tell you what to do differently, or they more subtly make you feel bad about yourself and your choices.
3. Even when they are “asking a question” about something that has to do with their life, they do not actually want your advice or opinion, only that you should mirror their feelings back to them and be in constant agreement with whatever they say.
4. They are often insensitive to your feelings, but they feel ACUTELY sensitive to any slights, criticisms, of even subtle negative behaviours towards them.
