We are used to thinking that narcissists are people who tend to boast about their virtues and manipulate others.
However, people suffering from this disorder may, on the contrary, behave very calmly and inconspicuously, thereby posing an even greater danger to others.
How to recognize a covert narcissist? Three sure signs will indicate a person with this disorder.
The second part of our material will tell you what kind of “beacons” we are talking about.
The role of the victim
Covert narcissists prefer to appear vulnerable or victimized in order to gain sympathy from others.
Often, psychological abusers use this method to cultivate a sense of guilt in their victims.
Excellent camouflage
Despite the fact that covert narcissists are not demonstrative, they know how to turn the conversation so that it revolves only around them.
In this way they try to make themselves more attractive in the eyes of other people.
Passive aggression
Covert narcissists are afraid to go on the so-called frontal attack, so they often resort to passive aggression.
This method is very convenient for psychological abusers, since it is very difficult to catch them red-handed and hold them accountable in this case.
