"The Narcissist's image is completely FALSE and created out of thin air and only as a working component to hide their pathological and dysfunctional life. There is no substance to it whatsoever. It is not about liking us, caring for us, bonding with us and NEVER about loving us. The Narcissist creates these special images for each and every one of us AND they are personally designed to mimic our life and appear as if we have so much in common. It is only a reflection of OUR good life that is given back to us and THAT is the bait that they use to trap us in as a new source of supply. They aren't looking at us with any emotional context but instead as a potential candidate to serve their many needs or objectified. We do not exist as a person to them but instead as a means to an end to exploit our life and love away from us. If you cease giving them what they want and need they will simply move on to another source without hesitation. Unfortunately they are dangerous in their pursuit of supply because the Narcissist MUST disable their source psychologically and emotionally to tap into all the supply they need. Believing in them is like reaching for the stars because you will NEVER be able to reach that far without falling first!"
