Is It Still Narcissism If Someone Always Makes Everything About Them, But In A Negative Way?

By admin Posted in: anxiety

My boyfriend makes EVERYTHING about him, but in a negative way. If someone is mad he automatically assumes the person is mad at him, or if I try and discuss something with him about me or our baby or anything he will turn it into a conversation about him. Like yesterday I told him my dad was mad at me because I forgot to pay him back for a cell phone bill, and his reply was “no he is mad at me because I didn’t mow his lawn earlier” which had nothing to do with anything I said and was not even true or relevant. EVERYTHING is about him, every night all he talks about is himself and his problems, I am 7 months pregnant and he ignores that, he doesn’t pay any attention barely to our baby, everything is about him. But like I said its all negativity. I will say “I cant wait to go back to school when this baby is a bit older” and he will say “Why didn’t I finish school when I had the chance?” and turn it back onto him. Is this narcissism? He sees a therapist and psychiatrist for anxiety but no medication seems to work ever. I am just losing my mind I feel like every night is a therapy session for him and its getting old. If anyone has someone in their life like this, what do you do?

    I’m a bit like that sometimes. I’m a guy. I’m becoming quite aware that it happens, through my own discovery, but I’m sure that if someone I loved pointed it out to me as a problem that I would really think about it…
    He may be looking for acceptance, some form of reassurance. He probably suffers from (perhaps extremely) poor self-esteem, or at least respects himself but does not feel that others accept him (this is the way I feel). I think this might be the root of this sort of problem.
    By talking it through with him he’s going to feel it, perhaps think about it. It might be hard to bring up, and do it in a nice way, especially if you want to keep him. Sorry, would write more but I have to go. Good luck ^^.
