As the holiday season rolls around, it’s important to spot some tell-tale signs that a narcissist might be baiting you into drama. Remember, they thrive off chaos and the ability to control the narrative/dynamic. When they feel a loss of control, they’ll use subtle or not-so-subtle tactics to get an emotional reaction out of you.
Some of these might be deliberately insulting you or touching on a subject they know will provoke you into a response. This is a very manipulative tactic to gain control over you when you’re not at your best. The motives might be slightly different depending on the narcissist. It can be to simply insult you or belittle you, it might be to intimate you or to embarrass you in front of others so that they can appear superior.
When you lose your control, you are unintentionally giving your power to the manipulator. A narcissist is very good at making themselves out to be the victim even when they’re the ones doing the real harm to you. It can be difficult to be calm when they’ve spent years perfecting their manipulative tactics, so if you’ve fallen victim to one of their many provocations, take a step back and don’t blame yourself for ‘knowing better’. They’re years ahead in knowing how to inflict abuse!
