Number 5: Narcissists never apologize.
Because narcissists believe that they are superior to everyone else, they will never apologize or accept that they have made a mistake. How could they if they were utterly perfect? They are always correct; they are never held accountable and never offer an apology. Can you trust someone who can never be responsible for their mistakes?
