It turns out that male narcissists are different from female narcissists. Some may think the difference is insignificant, but it is there.
The behavior of the two psychotypes differs in relationships and family life, as well as in friendship.
Here's what the experts have to say about it.
Narcissists in Relationships
If it is a man, he may have many connections and romances that he does not try to hide from strangers. Success with women increases his self-esteem.
The woman acts differently - she keeps all her suitors at a certain distance and carefully hides all her connections.
Narcissists in Marriage
In married life, these subjects also behave differently.
The man is in no hurry to get married or even becomes a confirmed bachelor or divorced more than once.
But he chooses women of a higher rank than his own, in order to increase his personal status. The narcissist husband will stubbornly underestimate the status of his chosen one all this time.
Things are no less sad for women. Sometimes they marry alcoholics, slackers, losers, or inveterate gamblers.
The low status of the husband narcissistically raises or maintains her self-esteem at the proper level.
Even if a narcissistic woman is asked to marry by rich suitors, she will accept the proposal of someone who is no more successful than her.
Narcissists in Friendship
A narcissistic man has a wide social circle, while a woman is more reserved in this regard.
Situations arise in which ladies have to sort things out, after which the friendship ends.
