5 Ways You Can Outsmart a Narcissist

Read this article until the end as we show you five ways you can outsmart a narcissist.

Number 1. Raise the Red Flag

Once you become a narcissist’s target, you become part of the game, whether you like it or not—not as a player but as the one being played. This is a game developed by narcissists themselves, pre-programmed for them to always have the winning end of the stick. But such a game cannot be designed if they have nobody to play and toy with.

What happens when you refuse to be a toy? When you say “no” by unfolding the red flag and raising it high, you are refusing to be controlled, most of all, declining any type of abuse and exploitation. But red flags irritate bulls, and the same goes for narcissists, as it is a slap of reality against the fantasy they are trying to live. They may see your “no” as a challenge, which could even make them more interested in making you their target.

Being firm, creating boundaries, and raising that red flag higher will eventually make the narcissist back off to the point that they will ultimately get their hands off you. Bulls will be frustrated when they cannot destroy the red flag; then they may go on a rampage—a rampage that ultimately binds and stops itself.
