How to outsmart a narcissist with emotional intelligence : regain control at home, at work, and in life
Leonard, Erin, Dr2024
Book
It might be surprising to learn that the emotional qualities that allow you to remain close to others, empathize, collaborate, compromise, perspective-take, and easily resolve conflict, in most healthy relationships, can actually backfire with a toxic person. Why? Because you see the good. You trust. You empathize. You take things 'on the chin,' for the betterment of the group. These emotionally intelligent attributes serve you well with non-narcissists and allow you to remain close and connected to others. They may also help you resolve conflict amicably and maintain healthy relationships. Yet, with a narcissist these EI features are often manipulated and exploited. Unfortunately, a narcissist typically garners your trust before they do anything else. Once they have it, they abuse it by unscrupulously working behind your back against you, convincing you that you are the 'real' problem.
