The narcissist lacks empathy. Consequently, he is not really interested in the lives, emotions, needs, preferences, and hopes of people around him. Even his nearest and dearest are, to him, mere instruments of gratification. They require his undivided attention only when they "malfunction" - when they become disobedient, independent, or critical. He loses all interest in them if they cannot be "fixed" (for instance, when they are terminally ill). People find the narcissist "cold", "inhuman", "h. 3579 6195 7531 5172 4259 8345 5547 1347 1743 9842 384 4726 5770 5489 6935 3259 519 697 553 9996 4179 360 5113 6481 8915 6348 6034 8577 390 8342 4789 3934 8082 9069 5988 579 1786 6052 7077 3052 7727 1143 6921 2596 2029 8537 7731 7542 5299 374 3771 6465 9822 1148 9041 3518 4741 1529 7470 6855 798 6077 9651 8661 1815 573 6228 4007 2956 4949 7954 5249 9457 9118 4374 3953 2002 4466 8474 1830 6903 8921 9207 9140 8973 9622 2031 4092 3515 4945 8892 7925 5359 1286 5188 201 3816 9316 2798 1213 1861 4290 5008 1373 3268 7733 7959 5492 3676 2959 281 9077 5794 1961 465 3523 7051 7770 8590 9142 325 6848 184 5198 9467 7082 1881 5019 1496 9648 6958 6645 5096 2230 7862 2585 5935 4735 428 5978 2272 9610 4514 6621 450 5152 5610 1839 642 3038 6102 3266 4505 3472 389 7963 2739 7149 1268 191 2802 3879 2440 4035 7119 6724 6184 6369 6573 6742 9899 6838 6227 1685 5762 6576 2719 1256 9552 6538 1341 3297 3108 8864 245 6487 4845 4850 8642 4750 8321 3165 4627 9602 9358 4457 8951 2569 3061 9851
