The narcissists' appetite is similar to a leach. The narcissist will suck your blood and energy in order to satiate his own appetite. The narcissists' life source(blood)is: attention, admiration, adoration, and applause. The narcissist dedicates his life in obtaining the above (blood).

The narcissist expects special treatment of some type. He does not believe he should have to wait on line or be placed on hold in an attempt to talk to the "person" he needs to contact. The narcissist believes he should be given special attention from his waitress regardless of how many tables she may be juggling. When he does not receive this attention he becomes filled with anger, disgust, and rage.

The narcissist loves to talk about himself and his habits. He loves to hold people hostage discussing his monotonous details about his day. He loves to brag about his daily accomplishments in detail.

The narcissist is sincerely not interested in your life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The narcissist does not engage in eye contact and does not like to hug and touch people.

The narcissist is offended by anyone who attempts to provide: help, love, assistance, concern, and advice. The narcissist considers this a "slap in his face".

The narcissists' capacity to love and return love was all but extinguished due to his critical, unpredictable, and rejecting mom.

The narcissist is disconnected to emotion and empathy. The narcissist can be thought of as a machine or a zombie.
