Feeling sympathy for narcissists can be complex. While it’s important to recognize that they may have experienced challenges or trauma in their lives that contribute to their behavior, it’s also crucial to set boundaries and prioritize your own well-being.
Understanding the underlying reasons for their behavior can help foster empathy, but it’s equally important to protect yourself from manipulation or harm. Ultimately, the level of sympathy you extend to a narcissist should be balanced with self-care and boundary-setting.
Give sympathy with a lot of caution. Don’t let the manipulative behaviors of narcissists fool you.
