BEWARE OF NARCISSISM PART 2: take this quiz!

As I stated in my last post...Love Addicts must be aware of Narcissism, it's characteristics and its effects. Take the following quiz and assess your partner's level of narcissism. Score 1 = never; 2 = ocassionally; 3 = frequently; 4= always. ________ Very competetive ________ Manipulative ________ Misleads and lies ________ Insensitive to your feelings ________ Controls you ________ Envious ________ Needs to be cente of attention ________ Demeaning ________ Self-Absorbed ________ Easily angered when confronted ________ Indirectly looks for attention ________ Feels their needs take priority over yours ________ Critical of your friends ________ Careless and impulsive Then total your score. Authors of the book,NARCISSISTIC LOVERS, suggest that if your score totals between 43 and 56, it reflects that your partner has excessive narcissistic qualities. A score between 29 and 42 indicates your partner has a high amount of narcisisstic traits and a score between 14 and 28 illustrates your partner has limited narcissistic characteristics. The book suggests that you must arm yourself with information about narcissism in order to deal with it and know what you need to do to best take care of yourself.
