What is a narcissist like in a relationship?

In the beginning:

• The attention, oh gawd the attention.
• You feel like you met your lost soul you’ve been searching for your whole life
• Everything you like, they like. How is this possible?
• Clingy, almost too much. Well, ok, yea, it is annoying. But you finally found someone that sees you for you and appreciates you, finally! Bring it!
• Sexual, can’t explain it unless you experience is. It’s like a performance each time.
• They seem to listen with ease, and are really interested in you.
• Every insecurity you ever had disappeared the moment you met them
• They want to do everything with you. It’s over the top but “cute” in a way.
• They have a vulnerable side you just can’t pin point. Almost like something is off, but you will ignore it and run with it.

By the end?

• Your flaws will come out, and all the attention you were getting, will be withdrawn.
• You will become a needy, clingy person that needs to get hobbies and friends. They can’t be bothered with your needs right now.
• Every insecurity they took away will be multiplied by 100.
