How to Live with a Narcissist

As stated in Step 2 above, it is not your place to confront this personality or make a determination that this is a narcissistic personality. Now is a good time to seek help for yourself and the other party if this is a possibility. Keep in mind that this personality is based on denial and shame. You may need help avoiding becoming codependent if you aren't there already. If you are in a marriage with the person, you might consider asking them to go to couples counseling so that a neutral party can offer their view of the personality and you can hand some of the pressure over to someone else.

Alien Abductions

October 14, 1957 Antonio Villas Boas, a Brazilian farmer, was working fields when he noticed what appeared to be a bright red star in the sky, growing bigger in size as it approached him. Eventually, an egg-shaped object landed a short distance from him, and Boas was captured by occupants of the craft. Following a medical-like examination, which included taking large samples of his blood, Boas got seduced by a distinctly alien looking woman. He was then given a short guided tour around the exterior of the craft, and finally released from capture.[1]
