Narcissist and Victim: Daddy or Mommy Issues?

9 months ago

The shared fantasy involves the narcissist and another person (intimate partner, friend, offspring, even co-worker). But is it founded on having daddy issues? And how does this square with my principle of dual mothership?

WOMEN: care, protection, approval, acceptance, understanding, support, validation, adoration, attention, worship, reality testing, unconditional love.
MEN: pampering, safety, regulation of sense of self-worth (grandiosity), unconditional love.

Both genders: “dead” father affects socialization and anxiety regulation, “dead” mother no separation-individuation. Or: extremely close, perhaps even disproportionately close, relationship with their fathers or mothers.
