Their entitlement stinks, and it\u2019s hard to get your head around if you\u2019re humble and kind by nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Narcissists want everything handed to them on a plate, and if you\u2019re unwilling to provide it, then more fool you<\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The entitlement sits just above a huge <\/em>secret they\u2019re harboring though, and it\u2019s pretty much the reason for its existence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s dig deeper and find out exactly <\/em>what that is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Okay. It\u2019s questions like this that get me shouting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhere do I staaaart?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists feel as though they\u2019re entitled to EVERYTHING<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When they see a car they like, you\u2019d bet your bottom dollar they will head into that garage and ask for the best price with all the perks plus some freebies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A job is posted that they want? They will call up the company and introduce themselves personally <\/em>before any kind of application form is filled in. Treating strangers like old friends is the link they use from where they are to what they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, they owe me a favor. There\u2019s no way they will say no after all I\u2019ve done for them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s such a familiar story, and if I\u2019m being honest, it\u2019s so nauseating to watch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Because they\u2019re such nice people!…<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2026<\/em>Okay. Pretty poor joke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The narcissist is <\/em>nice to a lot <\/em>of people. You could turn blue in the face trying to convince others the truth. All they see is someone trying their best to get great things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For every three of those kidneys of people, one person sees through it, and knows they act through entitlement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The narcissist is automatically entitled because it\u2019s a part of the narcissistic personality trait. This crazy idea that \u2018I am so important that I will get it – no questions asked\u2019 is a huge red flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anybody whose sole intention every day is to get as much attention as possible is going to find evidence in<\/em> that attention that they must be important<\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Entitlement feeds ego, and ego feeds entitlement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists become very arrogant in their own space. There\u2019s a phrase, \u201cAlways judge a person based on how they treat the server at a restaurant,\u201d and it is so true. <\/em>I\u2019ve seen it for myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The clicking fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The put downs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The sarcasm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The overly flirtatious comments at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The flashing of the money followed by, \u201cI bet you\u2019ve never seen this amount of money before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s disgusting, but again, it\u2019s how narcissists operate. They don\u2019t care who they offend, as long as they come out whistling at the end of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If only they knew how unattractive they were on the inside, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists’ entitlement can seep out in quite a few surprising ways. I know that you\u2019ll relate to a few of these. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yep. That\u2019s where it starts and ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I am better than you. My life is better, my bank balance is better, my job is better, my house is better, my car is better, my knowledge is better, and my vacation this summer was better. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yadda, yadda, yadda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019re yawning, too??<\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists live in a complete and utter dream world, where even the most noble job title will not come anywhere close to what they do for a living. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We all know it\u2019s not true though. Nobody this toxic can possibly be better <\/em>than nice people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the cycle part of narcissistic entitlement. If you\u2019re constantly used to getting everything <\/em>your own way, then you\u2019re always going to automatically feel entitled to it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If there are times a narcissist were to give up without a fight on some things, they would be like the rest of us, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes, you get what you want, sometimes you don\u2019t. <\/p>\n\n\n\n No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They don\u2019t operate like that. That would go against their overly inflated ego.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It sounds really cruel, but think about it. When you\u2019re a three-year-old and you\u2019re grabbing a toy off another child and saying, \u201cNo! Mine!\u201d, you\u2019re not in an emotionally developed place. You\u2019re learning and growing. You\u2019re exploring boundaries, and eventually, you learn to share or that something simply isn\u2019t yours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists just can\u2019t grow out of that phase. Only the older they get, the less cute it is. Imagine a fully grown man sticking out his bottom lip because he can\u2019t get what he wants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I think you\u2019ll all agree\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2026Yuck.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yet guess what? They live among us! Men and <\/em>women. And I\u2019m pretty sure you know somebody just like that<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What the narcissist is going to get is going to be taken away from somebody else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They want to come first in the race. They want to get the job because they want <\/em>it, not because they\u2019re the strongest applicant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Whatever they grab comes straight out of the hands of those perhaps more deserving. Well, sad for them because the narcissist doesn\u2019t care<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don\u2019t think this will ever change either. Narcissists will say, \u201cSorry to hear that,\u201d but they might as well be saying, \u201cI fancy pizza for dinner tonight.!<\/p>\n\n\n\n They\u2019re just words. They mean nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I promised you that huge secret, and here it is:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The narcissist is hiding all the ways they hate themselves underneath their entitlement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s their own secret, and they keep it to themselves so nobody will dare find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All that which the narcissist gains makes up for the painful, gaping inner loss they feel inside. That dreadful feeling of insecurity and self-loathing is alive and well at all <\/em>times in the mind of the narcissist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s why they overcompensate by deserving the best of everything and feeling entitled to having exactly what they want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Do you know a narcissist who gets whatever they want, whenever they want it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Those more covert will act in the most humble of ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You know, I\u2019ve been working so hard I\u2019m going to book that special holiday. I\u2019ve been so stressed, I really need a break.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, there will be the sign that they work so <\/em>hard (harder than us all!), and they need <\/em>it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Underneath it all, they just want to do things that make people go, \u201cWow! You\u2019re so lucky!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Narcissists aren\u2019t lucky. Neither are any of the people who remotely cross their path. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Narcissists don\u2019t agree that they should work for what they want in life.
