Number 9: Be independent and love yourself more.
To destroy a narcissist is to realize that you don’t need them in your life. Narcissists feed off your attention and affection, so if you give them less of both, they’ll be forced to leave you alone. The best way to accomplish this is by being more independent and learning how to love yourself more. This means that you need to stop focusing on the narcissist’s needs and start focusing on your own.
Narcissists will not help you with your problems or support you when things go wrong. They are only interested in using you to get what they want. You must learn to stand on your own two feet and take care of yourself.

Number 10: Cultivate a strong sense of self.
Narcissists thrive on the attention they get from other people, so if you’re constantly fighting with them or tearing them down, you’ll give them more fuel for their fire. Instead, focus on cultivating a strong sense of self with your interests, values, and beliefs. If you don’t know who you are and what you stand for, how can you expect to take on someone who has no respect for himself or others?
You must know your boundaries and never let anyone cross them. Know what makes you happy and pursue it relentlessly. Narcissists will try to use their charm to manipulate you into doing things they want. So, it’s crucial that they can’t get under your skin or force you into something that makes you uncomfortable.
One of the best ways to destroy a narcissist is to be completely independent of their approval. The more you focus on developing and maintaining your own identity, interests, and relationships, the less you’ll have to experience unnecessary and unwanted interactions with narcissists. Truly understanding the value of having a strong sense of self, and staying that way over a lifetime is essential to avoid excessive entanglement with narcissists.
