| 0:00.0 | So I get it. You want to know if it was a mom's fault, right? Or is dad's fault? Or if they're just wired incorrectly. It just made bad, right? Just bad wiring. It made them who they are. You're looking for a reason to stay or reason to forgive this narcissistic person in your life. And as someone is diagnosed with narcissistic |
| 0:21.7 | person out of disorder, I can just be, I'm going to just keep it hiding ready with you. Howdy |
| 0:25.9 | with you like a little seasoned pizza. Finding out why they are the way that they are won't change |
| 0:31.7 | what they are doing. It won't change who they are. Right. And because like as a narcissist, I was made in a specific way and today i'm going |
| 0:39.9 | to talk about narcissism in males how narcissistic males are created could some of this stuff |
| 0:45.7 | apply to narcissistic women yes absolutely it can my fellas you can watch this video my women |
| 0:51.7 | who love women you watch this video as well because a lot of |
| 0:54.2 | this stuff could apply as well i don't know the video of all narcissistic women here soon but we're |
| 0:58.2 | going to talk about males today y'all let's hop right into it no buffer no buffer nature the nature |
