Three Signs You're Dating a Narcissist

Three Key Signs of Narcissistic Personality Disorder: Expert Insights Are you concerned about someone's behavior? A recent video by licensed marriage and family therapist Kati Morton highlights three key indicators of narcissistic personality disorder. The short video, uploaded to social media in September 2023, has already garnered significant attention, reaching over 10,000 views by May 2025. Morton, a well-known mental health influencer, explains that a lack of empathy is a hallmark of narcissism. "If your friend or family member seems unable or unwilling to put themselves in your shoes," she explains, "it may be a sign of narcissistic behavior." She further emphasizes the importance of observing how individuals engage with others and their ability to understand different perspectives. Another key sign Morton points out is grandiosity. Narcissists often have an inflated sense of self-importance. They may excessively talk about their accomplishments and expect special treatment. Finally, Morton notes that manipulation, including gaslighting and guilt-tripping, is a common characteristic. These tactics are used to get their way or have their needs met. While Morton cautions that not everyone exhibiting these behaviors is a narcissist, her video provides valuable insights into recognizing potential narcissistic tendencies. The video's popularity underscores the widespread interest in understanding this complex personality disorder.
