No one is perfect, and no one ever does everything right. But it does not give one an excuse to go around infecting others with bad poisonous, unapologetic behavior. If you desire to become better, you must learn to accept constructive criticism. Every attempt to correct your behavior is not an attack.
People who are passive try to avoid arguments, but they too can reach their boiling points. Then, you’re going to throw salt on their names because they’ve finally reacted to your bad attitude, rudeness, selfishness, manipulation, treachery, and wickedness.
Most of us know our flaws. Some of us are afraid to admit them. The problem comes when you try to suppress them instead of facing them. Clearly, you must adjust your behavior in certain environments such as the workplace, church, etc. But if you are not willing to change, then you need to purchase a ‘warning’ label (figuratively speaking).
If all your adult life all you do is complain about how others affect you, then you need to make some serious changes within. Your public demeanor might be impressive, but your soul is a mess. You can’t change the people around you, but you can change the way you respond in certain situations. Everyone is not like you. Therefore, everyone does not have to agree with you. And just because people don’t agree with you doesn’t mean they are toxic or ignorant.
Steadfast loyalty does not expire or become compromised when two people have differences. It is dangerous to move with your emotions like that. When differences start creating distances, your alliance with that person weakens. It is not fair to abandon a healthy relationship just because a person doesn’t see things your way all the time. It just means a person has logic, and you definitely need people like that on your team. Logical people are capable of using deductive reasoning. They base their opinions on facts rather than opinions. They are usually good at giving sound advice and practical approaches to a given situation. Why wouldn’t you want someone like that on your team?
The reason being is that you are irrational and want to control every environment and situation. You want to always leave room for an outing because you’re untrustworthy and unreliable. On top of that, you have conditional loyalty. But how could loyalty be conditional? Either you have it or you don’t right? Well, when you’re dealing with a narcissist, anything is possible.
If you display any of this type of behavior, it’s time to get a check up from the neck up. Otherwise, you’re going to continue losing some good friends and missing out on grand opportunities because you’re not reliable and you can’t be trusted. But if of course you don’t need anyone and think you have life all figured out, then stay just the way you are. As a narcissist, you require adulation and lots of attention, so eventually you will get lonely.
