Trouble Shooting Narcissism

There's a ton of threads covering everything from idiots wanted their loved one diagnosed to deep analysis of the origins of Narcissism and they're all needed. There's a couple self-aware Narcissists here. I'm thinking narcoblan and stupidpig in particular and perhaps there's more (I give special thanks to naroblan and stupidpig; they're a bit ahead of me, so I appreciate their experiences) so I think its time to have a thread specifically about how to work Narcissism.

What things, ideas, god-knows-what do you do to work with yourself? Yes, long-term therapy...got it already doing it. More kind of like exchanging notes. Since I started I'll go first:

It was one of the two guys that mentioned studying less when around people and being "yourself" (whatever that is). I decided to try it out. Had a first date. Funny because she got the wrong day (we scheduled it for Sun, she thought it was for Sat). She sends me a text explaining how she had to double check if Sunday was still good. At first I took her at face value, what's interesting is my second thought was, "she's going to flake on you, she's just a *@ like the rest because she will flake on you. All women are like that". I figured this might be one of those moments where the Narcissist turns on somebody kind of thinking so I decided to just take her word for it. I was hoping she wouldn't though, since it would prove that I don't have to let my mind go there (not I was necessarily entitled to having this work out, I just wanted the observation to go that way so this point could be proven to me). It did, we had the date. I spent zero time studying her cues and how I should come off. Probably wrong thinking, but I figured that she's an object (this may or may not change, I'm just going with it for the moment but it doesn't mean I have to treat her as such) to me so I shouldn't really care but it would be unfair if I gave her a fake representation of me. I have good ideas and I know the cues so go with it.

It went surprisingly well. Keep in mind, my thinking about this is probably still flawed but it gave results. One of the two said it but I can't remember for the life in me. Regardless they get the credit for this one. Any other experiences? Doesn't matter, could be ground-breaking for something trivial.
