They dress carefully, spend a lot of time grooming, and experience high appearance-related self-esteem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They tend to see themselves as physically and sexually attractive, which gives them confidence when attracting and seducing potential partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Narcissists rarely recognize social factors that would prevent others from engaging in a sexual relationship with someone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies show that they&#8217;ll pursue anyone, regardless of whether they&#8217;re in a relationship or not, and are more likely to poach other people&#8217;s mates simply because it gives them a low-cost sexual encounter with no emotional fallout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a narcissist sees your sister, best friend, or even your mother as a potential sexual partner or narcissistic supply, they won&#8217;t worry about how it might make you feel or how their target might react to being seduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A narcissist doesn&#8217;t differentiate between a sex toy and a partner &#8211; both are there purely to fulfill the narcissist&#8217;s sexual needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This sense of sexual entitlement means they believe they can sleep with anyone they want, whenever they feel like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Will_a_Narcissist_Sleep_with_a_Family_Member?\">Will a Narcissist Sleep with a Family Member?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To most of us, the mere thought of having sexual relations with a family member is not just off-putting &#8211; it&#8217;s downright disturbing, but we don&#8217;t exhibit narcissistic traits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a narcissist, the family is only a collection of subordinates that provide an audience for the narcissist&#8217;s brilliance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Siblings, sons, daughters, nephews, and nieces are all seen as potential narcissistic supplies who can idolize, adore, admire, and obey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, and somewhat disturbingly, to the narcissist, having sex with a family member is the closest they can get to having sex with themselves, which is their ultimate desire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more a family member looks or behaves like the narcissist, the more attractive they will find that person, and the more passionately they&#8217;ll pursue them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned, narcissists are far more accepting of <a href=\"https:\/\/thenarcissisticlife.com\/sexual-attitudes-of-a-narcissist-sex-and-the-narcissist\/\">weird sexual behaviors <\/a>than most other people and display little sexual disgust at anything &#8211; even sleeping with someone they&#8217;re related to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Will_Narcissists_Sleep_with_Other_Narcissists?\">Will Narcissists Sleep with Other Narcissists?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Narcissists are often attracted to one another, possibly because they see their qualities reflected in them, and there&#8217;s nothing a narcissist loves more than their reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As many narcissists seek short-term sexual encounters, there&#8217;s a good chance two narcissists will end up in bed together at some stage &#8211; a scenario that neither will object to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Narcissists understand each other, at least on a superficial level, and appear to enjoy one another&#8217;s company, being more accepting of narcissistic traits like arrogance, selfishness, and vanity than others might be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their shared understanding of narcissistic traits can create a sense of comfort and familiarity that makes them feel more understood and validated in their behavior and attitudes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relationships between two narcissists tend to focus more on ego gratification and maintaining appearances, so lack the emotional depth and genuine intimacy needed to develop a long-term connection.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-background\" style=\"background-color:#ebeaea\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"FAQ\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Do_Narcissists_have_an_Increased_Risk_of_STDs?\">Do Narcissists have an Increased Risk of STDs?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s almost inevitable that the more sexual partners you have, the more likely you are to contract a sexually transmitted disease.
