Narcissist Personality Disorder (NPD) is a clinical condition that is characterized by extreme selfishness and an excessive need for admiration. Since certain narcissistic qualities are common, it can be hard to spot them in a person you’re dating.

Some mental health problems can contribute to the development of selfishness. Many personality disorders, particularly antisocial personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder, cause people to be so wrapped up in their own desires that they either do not notice or do not care about the needs of others.

Self-centered people can be empathic. Narcissists may fake it, but still essentially see others as pawns in their egocentric universe—and fail to make real changes. Self-centered people crave attention from others, and can reliably find a way to talk about themselves when they begin to feel neglected and unimportant.

Narcissistic personality disorder (narcissism) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by a pattern of self-importance (grandiosity), a constant need for admiration and attention, and a lack of empathy for others. Because of this lack of empathy, a narcissist cannot really love you.

If we suffer the traumas of abuse, early social rejection, social isolation, or bullying, our capacity to engage in interdependence with a sense of safety and wholeness can be damaged. Disconnected and broken, we slip into self-centeredness. Being self-centered is costly.

A self-centered person is excessively concerned with himself and his own needs. Self-centered people tend to ignore the needs of others and only do what’s best for them. You can also call them egocentric, egoistic, and egoistical.

Self centered refers to having an excessive interest and concern in oneself while selfish refers to a lack of consideration for others, and preoccupation with one’s own pleasure, profit or welfare.

Narcissists on the other hand argue in what is sometimes referred to as bad faith. It means that they dont even care about, or try to understand, the other person. Or even worse, they are dedicated to deliberately misunderstanding and mischaracterizing others, often to the point of absurdity.

Narcissistic people frequently speak bluntly and act in a rude, thoughtless manner toward those around them. This disdain brings with it a swaggering attitude; thinking that you are the best means believing others should treat you as such. And yet the narcissist is often successful in this.
