Have you ever been around someone who believes the rules don’t apply to them?

Of course you have or you wouldn’t be here listening to me.

Do not trespass means they must walk here, even just a step or two.

Do not touch means just a little, only one finger.

Even stop signs mean don't stop all the way.

This lack of honoring boundaries is absolutely a narcissistic trait. And if they won’t follow societal rules of wait in line or speed limits, what makes you think they will observe your boundaries? Why would we think they will listen to and honor our boundaries of "don’t make fun of me, yell at me or call me names?" They won’t. They don’t want to.

They don’t even want to wait their turn in a coffee shop. Do you really think they will hear your boundaries?
