Number 13: We can agree to disagree.
Psychologists, therapists, and other psychology experts often explain that narcissists usually love to be right in every single situation. Well, this is definitely true, and telling a narcissist that you do not agree with them is a sure way to get them pretty annoyed. This is especially true if you tell them this in front of other people or in a public setting.
Unfortunately, this is even true if you say this to them in a nice way. Although the average mentally stable person will not become enraged upon hearing the phrase “we can agree to disagree”, a narcissist definitely could.
Number 12: That’s not true.
Although narcissists love to always be right, they also have the tendency to lie about things and gaslight people. These lies could potentially be about silly things that don’t really matter that much or about things that are truly very important. However, a narcissist definitely won’t like it if you call them out for lying, especially if there are other people around.
This can be made even more upsetting to a narcissist if they are called out of a lie that would’ve manipulated someone into doing what they want, even if that person is you. That being said, saying that something the narcissist said isn’t true is likely to get a rise out of them in almost every situation.
Number 11: This isn’t about you.
In addition to lying and feeling the need to win every argument, many narcissists also enjoy being the center of attention. While this can be harmless if it is their special day, this can also apply if an event is not about them. These are the people that tend to stir up drama or make dramatic entrances at other people’s weddings and birthday parties.
As you can probably imagine, calling a narcissist out for this kind of behavior is likely to annoy them. A narcissist is sure to hate someone telling them that something isn’t about them, or worse, doesn’t involve them.
