When Your Gut Talks, Listen!

So many women ask me how they can be sure that they are dealing with narcissistic husbands. I don’t think that we can ever be 100% sure of anything. That said, there are many aspects of a person’s personality that can scream, “I am a narcissist!”

A man’s wealth or lack of wealth has nothing to do with narcissism. does not define The issue is not the fact that they cheat even though it causes major damage to the relationship. Believe it or not, there are worse things that women can endure. Here is the thing. One affair might not mean that it will mean a lifetime of affairs although one affair tips the scale of the likeliness that it could happen again.

The experts seem to agree that more than half of married men have cheated at least once but that doesn’t mean that they are narcissists. As odd as it might seem, I would say that at least 80% of my clients are dealing with narcissists. And that may be an understatement!

I hear comments like the following:

• He thinks the world revolves around him and the world owes him.
• He is arrogant.
• He isn’t even sorry for the pain he is causing me.
• He brags about the people he can dupe.
• He lies more than he tells the truth.
• He is always creating drama in our lives.
• He says that it served him right when he hurt someone.

If your husband is acting similarly, please pay attention. If your gut tells you that something is wrong but you don’t want to believe it, believe it.
