Hi, I don't think I qualify as a NPD but for a long time I tended to get into intimate relationships (including marriage) with them. I did a bunch of reading on it. Here's the google directory page, these are all interesting.

I also read a book about emotional abuse that listed the types of personalities that tended to link up into abusive relationships, stuff like "the Martyr and the Sadist" etc. There was one pairing called "The Narcissist and the Selfless Woman" that fit my marriage to a T.Lately I'm seeing some of the narcissist qualities in myself too. It's like I could jump to the other side of the same game.
So do you consider yourself NPD? Just curious.
