Narcissistic behavior and selfishness run a close race. However, there are some distinct differences between a mere selfish individual and a person who suffers from narcissistic personality disorder.
While this isn't a life-threatening distraction, a narcissist can destroy your self-esteem, your confidence and your dreams.
They have a way of making you feel small and insignificant in comparison to them.
If you have a friend, colleague or family member that you find obnoxiously self-absorbed and you can't figure out what makes them tick, maybe this list will help.
You can also NOT feel guilty for loving this person from a distance.
