Covert narcissists are experts at mind games, hiding behind a facade of charm, vulnerability, or self-pity. In this episode of Fake Love and Flying Monkeys, I’m revealing the five most insidious tactics covert narcissists use—because once you spot them, you can take your power back.

Unlike overt narcissists, who are loud and obvious, covert narcissists manipulate in subtle, sneaky ways. They use gaslighting, guilt-tripping, and emotional draining to keep you off-balance without raising their voices. One minute, they seem like the perfect partner, friend, or colleague, and the next, you're questioning your own reality. Sound familiar?

If you've ever walked away from a conversation feeling confused, guilty, or like you're walking on eggshells, this episode is for you. Recognising these covert narcissist mind games is the first step to breaking free from their emotional control.
