Narcissists only believe in themselves, by Last’s definition. Other people are supporting cast and villains in a movie the narcissist stars in. The chick in the movie might leave the hero, either because she was fooled by the villain or is really a villain all along. Unless you see people as having their own identities, you can’t know that person well enough to trust them. (Well, I suppose you could use a different world-model than multiple identities, as long as it’s more accurate than a personal narrative, but Last doesn’t discuss that.)
So, the Last Psychiatrist article says narcissism is maladaptive for men because it makes women fall for them? That’s pretty advanced thinking.
what is this i don’t even

I can’t parse your comment. How does being non-narcissistic help a man trust women?
