The secret agenda of every single narcissist out there is to annoy the hell out of you. You may ask, what do they get out of it? Well, think about it this way: they are demonic in nature, so they do demonic things. The more they can annoy you, the higher the chances of getting an intense emotional reaction from you. The more they can poke and prod you, the higher the chances of you raging at them. And when you finally show your anger, they call you crazy, cry wolf, and shape the environment to make you look like the bad guy in the situation.
To achieve this goal, they use overt abusive tactics. They may yell at you, scream at you, withhold affection, give you silent treatments, and so on. These are things that one can easily see and recognize as abusive tactics. But they also use subtle things to annoy you—things that, in isolation, may not look abusive, but when you examine them collectively, you will see that they are trying to give you “death by a thousand cuts.” Let’s talk about these annoying, subtle behaviors in today’s article. The topic for today’s discussion is five subtle things a narcissist does to annoy you.
1. Weaponizing Time
They weaponize time against you—either by being extremely punctual or extremely unpunctual. Let’s say you are a consultant and have a meeting at 9:00 a.m. You join at 8:59, and you are waiting for the client to join. This client, by the way, is a narcissist, but you don’t know that. You keep waiting. At 9:10, they are nowhere to be found—no emails, no clues. You get worried but remain patient. By 9:15, you’re getting really worried, wondering if they’re okay. You try emailing them, asking about their whereabouts and what’s going on. You get no response whatsoever. At 9:18, just as you’re about to leave the meeting and end the call, they appear. You take a deep breath and decide to see what’s going on. You think, “Maybe they got caught in an emergency. I need to take care of this.” You let them in, and upon entry, you don’t see any apologetic behavior.
