Narcissists are people who suffer from a narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), and they oftentimes have abusive personalities. Those with NPD are characterized by three distinct characteristics: They lack or have a severely limited capacity for empathy They desire to be the center of attention at all time, seeking validation through the admiration of others They believe they are special, unique, or better than those around them These three traits come together to create a person that is only interested in serving himself, with no regard for how those around him feel. He does not care how his manipulation impacts other people, so long as he gets the attention and admiration he craves.
