The Secret, Solitary Smear Campaign Of A Covert Narcissist

Covert narcissists will smear you. Not just when it’s over — while you’re together, too. Sometimes they say things about you to other people, straight out. They might tell people that you’re a loser. Or that they’re miserable with you. Or that you make their lives hell. Even more subtly, they will allow people to say things about you — and not correct them. This gives them plausible deniability, so they can’t be accused of badmouthing you directly. <h2>One way or another, covert narcissists will put you down — so they can push themselves up, by comparison.</h2> They will do it so subtly, you can barely describe what it is they’re doing. They hide in plain site so that no one has a clue who they really are. Underneath the “nice-guy” (or gal) exterior is a small, petty, disgruntled, envious, mocking, lying, rage-monster. You won’t see this side of them at first. You won’t see it until their place in your life is firmly established. Then they will set about taking you down — -without leaving a trace. <h2>Never On My Side</h2> When I first began to notice that my ex was a narcissist, I started reading writers on Quora. The education that I gained there was invaluable. As I learned more about narcissism and asked more questions, I had several people tell me that I should examine the things that had happened in the past — looking for possible smear campaigns. <a href="https://medium.com/@mylamorningstar/the-secret-solitary-smear-campaign-of-a-covert-narcissist-93450df162ab">Visit Now</a>
