[QUOTE="2PhiloVoid, post: 76257928, member: 167101"] Those are some good and useful questions, Mehguy! But y'know, I'm wondering how many people here would actually come out and admit in public that they've been diagnosed with a bona-fide case of narcissism (N.P.D.). Do you know of any here so far? Maybe we need an anonymous poll? Interestingly enough for me, I notice that folks don't seem to have a too much of a resistence to sharing that they're struggling with O.C.D. or Aspergers or some other cognitive challenge, but I think we'd be hard pressed to see anyone admit they are a full-fledged Narcissist. I could be wrong on this, though. Some people are full of surprises! Next question: Have I been hurt by someone with narcissism? No, but the only one I've encountered so far thought he could simply evaluate me based on how I responded to whatever spritiual critiria he thought were most important: like, did I sing, praise and worship with the intensity that "he did"? (Of course, by that measure, I failed 'cuz I'm not a great singer, and I [admittedly] didn't like the music he liked.) ... but that was years ago and now it's just so much water under the bridge. Do I think Narcissism is due more to nature or nurture? I don't know. I leave that up to the psychologists to figure out on a case by case basis. In the case of the guy I mentioned just above, his was probably due to a 'daddy complex' since he didn't have a father while growing up. But again, I don't know for sure. I will say that he was also a good looking guy and, I guess that his looks gave him some confidence that I obviously didn't have (and that he saw that I didn't have). :dontcare: [/QUOTE]
