Approximately 5% of people around the world are narcissists and, shockingly, men tend to be more narcissistic than women.
Narcissists are people who are self-centered and have an inflated sense of their importance.
They need excessive attention and tend to notice small things that a normal person doesn’t.
Their attitudes are one of the major reasons why the ratio of toxic relationships is increasing every day.
So if you feel that your narcissist acquaintance hates you, there are reasons behind why they do.
In this video, we'll look into the 10 reasons why narcissists hate you.
Make sure to watch until number 1, because it’s one of the most common reasons you’ll witness.
Number 10: You are more successful.
You just got a big promotion or your company is doing well and you realized that your narcissist partner didn’t congratulate you.
This is a sign that they didn’t like your success.
Narcissists are people who notice every small change around them, so if they find you become more successful, they will be threatened by this success.
For example, if your partner is a narcissist, there are more chances of your relationship getting affected because they will assume that you are making more money and getting the limelight.
They will always try to make you inferior to them because of some insecurities regarding your success.
Your partner will start making pointless arguments and you may feel that they don't like you anymore.
Well, it’s not because of you, but your success that is making your partner anxious.
They will never congratulate or support you.
In fact, your partner will always try to criticize you for being in a higher position.
Number 9.
You ignore them.
If you ignore a narcissist, they will not only hate you but can also harm you and your reputation.
Ignoring a person you don’t like is your choice, but narcissists can’t bear this.
They have such an exceptional desire for attention and love that if you ignore them intentionally or unintentionally, they will start hating you.
Not only this, but they will try harder to get your attention.
According to experts, ignoring narcissists can enrage them and they will try to pursue you harder, especially in ways that can be toxic and abusive.
For example, if a narcissist is trying to date you but you are constantly ignoring them, they will chase you by all means because narcissists can’t bear to lose.
And once they get what they desire, your relationship may end, because research says that narcissists tend to lack empathy.
Sometimes narcissists ignore you back or insult you to regain your attention.
If that doesn’t work, they will either threaten you or turn to cry to satisfy their desire of getting your attention.
But in both cases, they are struggling to feed their fragile egos.
Number 8: They are looked down on because of you.
Do you think that you can tolerate disrespectfulness because of any other person?
Of course not.
In fact, no one can bear this situation, but narcissists simply can’t accept this feeling.
Narcissism is a personality disorder that can’t be handled easily.
So if a person looks down on them just because of your popularity, narcissists can’t endure it.
They will feel insecure and try to put you down.
Things can take a dangerous turn in this way and narcissists will do anything to win back that admiration and popularity.
They can harm you both psychologically and physically unless they get back their limelight.
Simply speaking, narcissists are self-oriented people who can’t bear anyone more popular or successful than them.
They always feel better after putting others down.
Number 7: You are happier without them.
Your happiness is simply a challenge to narcissists.
They can’t let you be happy with or without them.
This is really unexpected but it is a fact.
The reason behind it is that true happiness comes from within, and narcissists lack all those emotions.
The only way they can think of becoming happy is by managing their fragile egos and so-called self-esteem.
Watching you cheerful without them means they are not more important in your life and that’s the major trigger of their antagonism to you.
Narcissists think that you are not capable of what you possess and they are the actual person who deserves all this.
But when you leave them and they can’t keep themselves beside you, they start hating you.
Now you are no longer available to them, you can live your life without them and on top of that, you are happy without them.
All these factors simply trigger narcissists to dislike you.
They want you to feel their absence and if you don’t, this is against their narcissistic supply which means limitless demand of attention, admiration, and importance.
Number 6: They are jealous of you.
If narcissists are jealous of you, they will not only hate you but also try to make you jealous of them.
Yes, it is surprising, but narcissism is a psychological disorder and you can expect a narcissist to do anything to feed their egos.
According to a 2017 study, people who have a high level of narcissistic traits, also called grandiose narcissists, induce jealousy in their partners to acquire certain goals and power.
This shows that what a narcissist desires is attention by all means.
If you are praised because of your skills or sweet nature, narcissists will doubt you, get jealous of you, and eventually hate you.
Jealousy is a true symptom of insecurity or incapability to achieve something.
So if you feel that your narcissist colleague is jealous of you, it means they are not capable of achieving their goals and they can’t see you being successful either.

Number 5: They are lectured because of you.
Narcissists don’t like being taught, and they learn less from their actions.
Competition is essential for motivation but for narcissists, it only hurts their fragile egos.
Narcissists can’t see anyone above them in any situation.
Say for example your narcissist friend is lectured by his parents because of your achievement.
What do you think his behavior will be?
Don’t imagine that they will get motivated and work harder.
No, never!
Instead, they will start disliking you and try to harm you.
They will either interrupt your way to success or negatively impact your reputation.
When your friend should work hard to improve their position, they will try to make you lose so they can feel superior.
Number 4: You don’t agree with them.
One word that narcissists never want to hear is no.
Don’t dare say no to them, especially in unfavorable situations, because it will end badly.
For example, your boss is a narcissist who, like the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland, wants her employee to do what she desires despite all the advantages and disadvantages.
In this situation, if you dare say “No, you are wrong,” or, “No, it can’t work this way,” then you might count this day among the worst in your life.
This type of managerial narcissism if encountered always creates chaos.
You will be counted among their top enemies, which is not good, at least for your job.
Number 3: You make them face the ugly truth.
Narcissists think they can never make mistakes, not even the slightest one.
A 2020 study shows that narcissists don’t take any advice from others, they don’t trust anyone, and never admit their mistakes.
So if you make them face the ugly truth or their mistakes, they will simply start hating you.
They will be afraid of being confronted for their acts and therefore will make sure to suppress your voice.
If you expose a narcissist, they will try to justify their acts.
Your narcissist partner will continue to lie to your face and will never accept their mistakes.
They have only one thought stuck in their minds and that is that no one is superior to them.
They can do what they want to.
But if you confront them, they will start disliking you and eventually, your relationship will become toxic.
Number 2: You are more confident than them.
Your narcissist partner can’t see you as more confident than them.
First, they will exhibit a false sense of self-confidence and try to act and speak more confidently, especially if they are senior to you.
But when you also act in the same confident manner, instead of feeling happy for you, they will dislike your confidence.
Your partner will either criticize you or point out your mistakes in front of everyone to make you feel low.
This only satisfies their fake ego and self-centered personality.
Number 1: You are loyal to those they don’t like.
Narcissists don’t like their victims because they want their victims to think and care about them.
The fundamental aim of narcissists is to dominate the life of their closest ones.
So if you are loyal to those whom your narcissist friend doesn’t like, you are going to face their rage.
If you are the only one close to them, they will never like you to befriend their enemies.
They will have a strong sense of insecurity and will feel that you have betrayed them.
Despite working with facts, narcissists always think with anger and they can’t endure this betrayal.
Even if they leave you, they will keep an eye on your activities and try to harm you or your dear ones.
They will make sure to make you regret your loyalty to their enemies.
Broadly speaking, your narcissist friend can’t live without you, but they can’t also live with you unless you admit your mistakes in front of them.
