Narcissists Who Think They’re Great Are More Likely to Be Ignored

Are you a self-absorbed narcissist?  Well, it’s a good thing you’re paying attention to yourself . . . because no one else is.

A new study found people who act like they’re better than everyone else are more likely to be ignored, rejected, and left out of stuff.  So, if you think you’re the best . . . but didn’t get invited to that party this weekend . . . maybe it’s BECAUSE you think you’re the best.

The study found we tend to avoid hanging out with people who act superior.  And narcissists are also really good at noticing when they’ve been left out.

When it happens, they tend to get defensive about it . . . act even MORE narcissistic . . . and it makes us want to hang out with them even less.  So it’s a vicious cycle.

At work, it might mean you’re more likely to be left off email chains or have your ideas ignored.  On weekends, it might mean you’re left sitting at home stumped by the fact that you didn’t get invited out to the bar.
