I'll Call him George

I read once that because of my personality, I am more susceptible to getting into relationships with, or forming friendships with, the narcissistic type of guy.
Well, I have to say that my first real experience with this was with a guy that I'll call George. Now, I never did meet this George in real life. We did talk on the phone a few times, and I did message with him back and forth through Text.
George had some issues. He would tell me about these issues and I'd tell him how sorry I was. These issues seemed to get worse and worse. It got to the point that he would tell me that the girls he dated were mean to him and that once one girl almost made him kill himself.
This really upset me for reasons some people know here, and some people don't. I am not going to get into that here.
Now, there were times that George and I would fight and I'd stop talking to him. You see, this is when nothing was ever his fault. He would end up apologizing eventually, but of course it would end up the same. We'd fight, it wouldn't be his fault and I'd tell him I wanted to stop talking.
I eventually blocked him. It took me telling someone else about this situation to make me see that he was a narcissist.
Have you ever met a narcissist? They are more common than you think.

I spent far too much time talking to this George.
He really did have some problems I believe, but the biggest of all was his narcissism.

@CarolDM I just wish I had seen it for myself sooner. However, I wanted to see the good in him and to help him. I am just glad I had a friend who was tough and told me that he was a narcissist and I had to break from him.

@ScribbledAdNauseum That is a deal breaker.

Yes, I have..Although one of them was insightful enough to tell me he wasn't anice person. Why didn't I listen?

@ScribbledAdNauseum Or we are narcisstic enough ourselves to think "we" can change them..Don't go down that road..when someone tells you or shows you who they are..believe them the first time!

@snowy22315 I have the bad habit of seeing it, but pretending as if I don't. I saw it with my ex husband, I saw it with my last boyfriend to.

Oh wow! People tend to not believe a person when they are so blatantly honest. We like to assume that people are being modest, when they aren't, they are being serious.

My one ex I think was a narcissist but I am not sure as much as I am sure my mother is!
Sounds like it's good you never met him in person and were able to block him.

Well put it this way, I have met many who are the most selfish, self centered individuals.

@TiarasOceanView As Am I. I am hoping I won't have to deal with these types in the future as well.

Sure. I don't have any attraction to that type of guy.

I wouldn't say that I have an attraction to these types, but they certainly have an attraction to me.

It is more than just selfishness, unfortunately. Narcissists are also manipulative.
Selfish people are annoying to deal with.
