Narcissistic Folks: Unable Or Unwilling To Empathize?

What's up with the Hijackals of the world? Can they empathize? Are they devoid of empathy? Or, is this just one more area of manipulation?

Show Notes

Lack of empathy in one partner creates a deficit that the other partner cannot fill...no matter how hard one tries!

Learn more about the differences in functioning, and the decisions #Hijackals and other narcissistic people make about demonstrating empathy. Eye-opening! 


Empathy is the ability to identify what someone is thinking or feeling, and then to be able to respond to THEIR thoughts and feelings with an appropriate response. Can the person you have in mind do this? When do they do this? What's up when they do this?


#Hijackals are notoriously self-focused and self-referential. Everything revolves around them in a world that works for them, right?


How they express, use, and manipulate by the use of empathy, or empathy like, patterns is important to recognize. I think it will be clear after you listen to this episode.


Big hugs!

Rhoberta
