Therefore, whenever you DO witness a perverted reaction to something, DO NOT blow it off. For example, the narcissist inexplicably gets angry at what should please. Guess what? Other examples are being repulsed by what should endear. You know - those bizarre reactions that make you want to pinch yourself. Remember that normal people don't do that. My experience convinces me that narcissists use these backwards reactions to things as shock tactics. That way the narcissist gets away with it, because you are stunned.
