Narcissists are toxic people who love to argue and make others feel miserable. So they are the only one who gains from arguments involving narcissists. “The narcissist believes they’re entitled to everything, including your time, your emotions, and your self-esteem,” explains Sarah Newman, MA, MFA, founding editor-in-chief of the Poydras Review. If you find yourself arguing with a narcissist, resist the urge to defend your pride, let go of your ego, and simply walk away.
