Rejected by NPD?

It seems a lot of you get upset when a NPD rejects you. Don’t let it upset you. Being a NPD I can say that we only care about ourselves. I've been going to therapy for 2 years and it’s still a struggle for me to empathize. Unfortunately I've had to turn down 2 HPD women so far. One was my neighbor and the other was my classmate.

1. I never date neighbors (made that mistake once and the @#%#^ wouldn't leave me alone)
2. I don’t like to date and be stuck with someone for a whole semester so classmates are out too

My rejection of girls for the most part has nothing to do with them, as long as they don't look like Shrek. If the situation doesn't fit my criteria, you’re out. If the environment isn't right, you’re out. If I’m not in the mood to date…..you guessed it, you’re out. It doesn't matter how attractive a girl is. How great of a personality she has. When I’m with her it’s on my time and my decision. I don’t go out of my way to hurt women, in fact I analyze each one; her needs, wants, and desires before I ever step foot into a relationship or FWB. If I see that I can keep her happy but most importantly MYSELF happy, I enter a relationship. If I can’t, I’ll still be nice to her, even be friends (that doesn't include me listening to her whine) but nothing that she does will convince me otherwise, nothing. Don’t get upset when a NPD “rejects” you because he really isn't rejecting you. It’s the situation or timing that he’s rejecting for the most part, not you.

You sound more like an person who just analyses life than "an NPD".

I'm also considering taking up having HPD. I'm bored of most things and the only person I really speak to much just seems to want to play chess every single day, never anything else. Like they're obsessed with it and every single interaction has to lead that way. I haven't yet looked into the pros and cons of having HPD, however, it would seem to fit in well with how the person I know likes to act.

Oh yes I do analyze life, thanks for noticing katana. That's whats helping me get better. What sets me apart from most Narcissist's. BTW I know a couple of HPD's who could show you the rope if your interested, no need in wasting all that time playing chess :mrgreen:
