Adding all the names of "Narcissa" and "Narcissus" in the family tree. Is there a genetic trend of selfish behaviors, family lies and deception hidden by these narcissistic family members?
Narcissism is the pursuit of gratification from vanity or egotistic admiration of one's own attributes. The term originated from Greek mythology, where the young Narcissus fell in love with his own image reflected in a pool of water.
Narcissism is a concept in psychoanalytic theory, which was popularly introduced in Sigmund Freud's essay On Narcissism (1914). The American Psychiatric Association has had the classification narcissistic personality disorder in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) since 1968, drawing on the historical concept of megalomania.
Narcissism is also considered a social or cultural problem. It is a factor in trait theory used in some self-report inventories of personality such as the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory. It is one of the three dark triadic personality traits (the others being psychopathy and Machiavellianism).
Except in the sense of primary narcissism or healthy self-love, narcissism is usually considered a problem in a person's or group's relationships with self and others. Narcissism is not the same as egocentrism.
"She looks at herself instead of looking at you, and so doesn't know you." - Stendhal
An example of narcissism:
Ms. Megan Rose Bradley was living in Matthew Maas' house while having a one-night stand with your father at an ugly sweater holiday party he hosted in 2010-11. Ms. Bradley's grandfather, James Wesley Bradley, passed away in March 2011, when Ms. Bradley rudely laughed like a rude high school bully at Mr. Maas and his parents at the funeral service. Shortly after, Mr. Maas packed all her belongings (of two years) including presents not yet opened and placed them at the front door. June 2011, Ms. Bradley finally dates a co-worker that she had been flirting since January 2011 with Aaron W. Donald. After a few dates later, Ms. Bradley and Mr. Donald ran into Mr. Maas, where Mr. Maas and a few girl friends were giggling and calling her "whore". In August 2011, she catches and reels in the man she left behind at the ugly sweater party, Chase A. Main.
Four days after the rushed wedding, Ms. Bradley was excited for a new movie, "Magic Mike" to be out that she wanted a girl's night out to watch this soft pornography in "slomo". A decent guy friend commented, "it hasn't been a week, and she is in need of a girl's night out. oooooh boy!"
