Covert narcissists may be low-key, but they desire to be superior to others like other narcissists. Challenging as it may seem to spot, they are obsessed with their reputation. Maintaining their facade of perfection is their only goal to keep feeling superior to others. Their inflated ego is fed up when people praise and validate them for their false success and achievements. It makes them feel good about themselves.

However, if you try to compare them to people who are more successful than them, it will deplete their inflated egos.
