How To Know If He's A Narcissist Or Just A Player! by cocolacec(m): 4:15pm On May 09, 2020
In this video, you will learn how to tell if a man you’re dating is a narcissist or if he is just an f-boy or player. So, if you’re seeing a man but feel frustrated or confused by his behavior, and you want to know exactly what you’re dealing with, then you have to watch this video.

He made this video because of the phrase “He’s a Narcissist” more and more lately. That’s because the term narcissist has become more popularized over the past 5-10 years. Just take a look at these google trends over the past decade and you can see the increase in the number of worldwide searches for the terms “narcissistic relationships” and “dating a narcissist”. These are highly searched keywords that continue to increase in popularity as more and more people search them up.

And after reading or learning about narcissists online, many of the women I’ve worked with over the past year or so, have come to me convinced that the guy they were dating was a narcissist.

Sometimes after hearing their stories, I agree with their assessment, but other times I think they were simply dating a player and not necessarily a narcissist. On the surface, they can seem to be similar, but make no mistake about it.. being in a relationship with a narcissist can be much, much worse.. it’s very stressful, unhealthy, and even toxic. So, without further ado, here’s how the two are similar and different.

First, A player is usually a man who manipulates a women's emotions by faking his romantic interest in her until he
a) gets what he wants from them or
b) gets them to have feelings for him and then he usually fades out or ends the relationship.

Also, Players often suffer from Peter Pan Syndrome because they just can't grow up and it's all a game to them. And In my opinion, the most important part of this definition is the faking his romantic interest part.

On the other hand, a narcissist is also a person who is highly manipulative of partners, but for very different reasons. We will get into those reasons in just a second.

But in addition to Being manipulative, a person with narcissistic personality disorder has a grandiose sense of self importance, lacks empathy for other people, and constantly needs admiration.
Narcissists are arrogant, self-centered, demanding and are convinced that they deserve special treatment.

So, manipulating others to get what they want is certainly a shared characteristic between narcissists and players. They Both find satisfaction in getting people to fall for them because It feels like a victory to win the affection of someone else.
And both players and narcissist are usually charming and may sweep you off your feet with their romantic talk and gestures. In fact, it’s common for both narcissists and players to seem like real life prince charming’s when they first meet you. But this is probably where the similarities end. Here are the major differences.

Abeg, make una fear anyone with this mental condition oh (male or female). They are very terrible and indescribable.
