Before you can confidently deal with a narcissistic spouse, you have to, first of all, know the narcissist’s weaknesses, and then find a way to strip him/her of their power. Here is how to do that.

How To Know The Narcissist’s Weaknesses.

As I earlier said, one of the fasted ways to deal with a narcissistic spouse is to know his /her weaknesses, but it will not be that easy to Identify the narcissist’s weaknesses.

It can also be most challenging to do that because they are pretty good at presenting a facade of strength and self-confidence.

Nevertheless, here are some familiar weaknesses of narcissists that you may want to keep in mind:

Insecurity: Despite their bravado, narcissists are often deeply insecure and afraid of being exposed as frauds.

Fragile self-esteem: Narcissists have a fragile sense of self-esteem that is easily damaged by criticism or perceived rejection.

Lack of empathy: Narcissists have difficulty connecting with and understanding the emotions of others, which can make them appear callous or insensitive.

Need for admiration: Narcissists crave attention and admiration from others and will go to great lengths to obtain it.

Control issues: Narcissists often have a strong need for control and may become angry or defensive when they feel that they are losing it.

Fear of abandonment: Narcissists may have a deep-seated fear of being abandoned, which can make them clingy or needy in relationships.

It’s worth noting that not all narcissists exhibit all of these weaknesses, and their behavior can be highly variable depending on their personality and circumstances.

Additionally, it’s important to approach interactions with narcissists with caution, as they can be manipulative and may attempt to exploit your vulnerabilities for their gain.
