Trust

That's what is missing in our relationships with narcissists, isn't it? We can't trust them with our thoughts or opinions (God forbid we have our own!), our feelings, our aspirations or anything else, even when it's our own parent. How sad is that?
The reason I think is simple, narcissists trust no one, therefore they don't know what it is like to trust someone. This results in them having a very different perspective on life. To most of us life is precious because of the meaningful connections we make with others. This is because we have empathy and compassion for each other, whereas narcissists do not. Narcissists see life as a game to be won at all costs, people are nothing more than a means to some self-serving end. They must always come out on top in every encounter.
This is what makes them so dangerous when we give them our trust.
