4. Core Differences: Communication and Decisions
Sign number four: A narcissistic man loves to lecture you, talk at you, and tell you what to do because he thinks he knows it all. But in reality, he knows very little. A healthy man, on the other hand, asks open-ended questions and wants to know what you think about certain problems. He values your ideas and eagerly waits for you to express your thoughts because he knows that mutual input maximizes growth. He consults you on major decisions, like buying property, whereas a narcissistic man will close the deal without your input and then inform you later. A narcissistic man doesn’t care about your opinions or how his decisions affect you, while a healthy man always considers how his choices impact you and your life together.

Sign number five: A narcissistic man is consistently inconsistent and predictably unpredictable. Being with him feels like an emotional roller coaster. Sometimes, you’ll experience high highs—it feels intense and exciting. Other times, you’ll hit low lows, feeling like there’s nothing left in the relationship. You question whether this person even loves you. There’s no balance, no consistency, and it’s hard to know who he truly is because he keeps shape-shifting. One moment, he’s nice, and the next, he’s a monster, leaving you confused and stuck in a cycle of cognitive dissonance and trauma bonding.
