 Number 6: They lie about their past experiences.

 Narcissists never want to admit that they’ve made a mistake or done something wrong in the past. If there’s something they did wrong in their past, they’ll twist things around so that it sounds like it was someone else’s fault or changed the story entirely so it never happened.

 Narcissists always find a way to blame someone else for it instead. They often have an overly idealized view of themselves and try to present themselves as perfect. This includes creating an image of themselves as the perfect boyfriend, which usually means that they had no problems in past relationships and everyone else was at fault for any issues that arose in them.

 Number 7: They lie about who they really are.

 Narcissists are not the kind of people you can trust. They often lie about who they really are to hide that they have an inflated sense of self-importance, a need for constant admiration and praise, and an inability to empathize with others. They may believe their own lies and be completely unaware of their narcissistic tendencies.

 Narcissists are people who are full of themselves, but a better way to describe them is they are people who are empty inside. They have no real sense of self, so they try to fill the void with attention and approval from others.

 Narcissists often claim to have achieved things that they haven’t. They may exaggerate their accomplishments or even flat-out lie about them. A narcissist might tell you that they graduated from a prestigious university when they dropped out after one year. Or, they may say that they have an advanced degree when they only completed a few classes before quitting school altogether.

 Narcissists love to brag about themselves and make themselves look good in every situation. When you ask them about their job, they’ll tell you that they were promoted. They’ll let you know they’ve been nominated for an award, but when you check the record, it turns out that they were just shortlisted. Narcissists tell you they’ve won a prize, but they were just one of the many nominees.
