Number 4: The female covert narcissist is extremely careless, impatient, and reckless with your emotions.
Especially if what is hurting you is related to her; so if you cry or show your sadness, it will not phase her one bit, zero empathy. She will see it as a weakness and use it against you later, so if you can fight any fears or pass traumas with her at the beginning of the relationship, you can almost be sure that this will be used during arguments as reasons why you are the way you are, and why you are at fault for whatever is happening.

No matter what you say or which way you turn, it will be wrong; you can count on that. For example, let’s say you’re having an argument and you decide to go for a walk to cool off, she’ll be angrier because you’re running away without trying to resolve things. If you stay, she’ll get even angrier, saying: “You’re being too aggressive or pushy.”

And again, no matter how much you do for her, how much you spend on her whether it be time, money, or energy, it’s not going to be enough. You will try harder and harder, but you will still feel unworthy and unappreciated. Meanwhile, she is making very minimal effort or contribution to the relationship, although she will act and seemingly believe that she is doing everything.
These comparisons make you feel like you’ve done something wrong like you don’t deserve the closeness, the connection, and the love- that it’s all your fault. And this can pull on your competitive nature, making you want to show her, and prove yourself that you are as good as or better than the next guy. In the long run, you work harder and harder, not realizing that for every step forward, you’re taking several steps back.
