One of the ways to make narcissists unhappy is to tune out their remarks. Narcissists take pleasure in being judgmental of others and putting them down. If you are sensitive to criticism, it may be challenging not to take their comments personally. However, it’s worth noting that people with poor self-esteem often criticize others to feel better. Instead of being offended, remind yourself that this person does not add anything valuable to your life. Outperforming them should never make you feel bad; it doesn’t matter what they think of you.
5. Don’t Let Their Words Break Your Spirit
Narcissists act with only their own interests in mind. They will stop at nothing to appear correct, even if it means harming you. They have a talent for manipulating others, and their words are always related to their emotions rather than actual facts. They may try to convince you that you are the center of their universe, but that’s not the case. It’s imperative to ignore their negative comments or attempts to bring you down. Don’t let them bother you.
6. Call Out Their Misbehavior
Narcissists have high opinions of themselves and believe they are superior to others. They are also hypersensitive to negative feedback and will go to great lengths to avoid public disapproval. They have a knack for shifting blame to others. To make them miserable, call them out when they behave poorly or treat you harshly. Avoid being too kind, as it can lead to further mistreatment. Narcissists cannot stand being perceived as less than perfect, so exposing their flaws can be effective.
7. Find Contentment in Your Own Life
Finding contentment in your own life is a highly effective way to bring misery to a narcissist. They struggle to accept it when they realize others are flourishing without them. To make the narcissist suffer, display how content you are with your life rather than relying on them for support or validation. Find joy in people and hobbies that make you happy. The narcissist may not be interested in your happiness, but don’t let them interfere with it.
