Misinterpreting narcissists' physical appearance as confidence leads to overestimating their self-esteem, resulting in positive impressions that are ultimately inaccurate.
Due to focusing on a narcissist's appealing initial impression, individuals often disregard inner warnings and continue fostering relationships that may ultimately cause harm.
Narcissists perpetually market themselves to gain admiration and validation, employing their self-assured demeanor to captivate and manipulate others.
Narcissistic individuals engage in manipulative behaviors and consider relationships as games solely under their control, often targeting individuals with low self-esteem for exploitation.
