Why Narcissists Stay Close to You

They Crave What You Have – Your authenticity, inner strength, and clarity are things they lack.
They Want to Possess You – If they can’t be like you, they at least want to control you or keep you under their influence.
They Seek Healing But Can’t Surrender – Something in them knows they need what you carry, but their pride won’t let them admit it.
They Fear Being Exposed – Even if you don’t call them out openly, they sense that you see them.
