Narcissists have a reputation for being entitled, attention-seeking blowhards, and most of them are. A subset of narcissists, however, believe they are just as entitled to whatever they want but display it differently. In this episode, Dr. Marni Feuerman explains “covert narcissists” — people who use more subtle strategies as they manipulate others. She discusses how this disordered behavior affects their romantic partners and what you should do if you suspect you have a narcissist in your life, whether overt or covert.

Listen to the podcast Dr. Marni Feuerman refers to in this episode, in which Katherine tells her story: “He pitted all of us women against each other.”
