Are narcissists happy people generally?

As for doing no harm to others, that is a concept a narcissist can never grasp. People, all people, in their lives are there for only one purpose: to fulfill the narcissist's needs. This leaves a wake of destruction in their paths.

Narcissists have no idea who they are because they have worn a mask their whole life. They KNOW there is something wrong with them, something so bad they have to hide it, so they construct a “false self “ which they present to the public.

Very few narcissists ever achieve these dreams, instead they spend hours on the sofa playing video games, watching porn and eating junk food. They talk about starting an exercise program, going back to college, going to rehab or starting therapy to deal with their issues.

Unfortunately, these plans never happen. They stay on that sofa, talking about what color their Lamborghini is going to be, how many rooms their dream house will have and which celebrity they are going to sleep with.

Narcissists have many secrets. And they hide them from everyone. No one gets to see their real self, especially in the beginning. If you are involved with one, you will eventually get glimpses at what lies beneath the mask but you won't believe it.

In short, narcissists can read people. They quickly assess what you want or need in your life and like a chameleon, that is who they will become. But it isn't who they are and it never will be.

As for knowing what they want in life, Narcissists have no idea. Their dreams are always fantasies, some vague plan based on winning the lottery, marrying a billionaire, becoming a popular YouTuber, a famous singer, a movie star or winning it all in Las Vegas.
