Why Narcissist Can't Love (with Daria Żukowska, Clinical Psychologist)
Channel: Prof. Sam Vaknin
Date: 2024-02-06

Narcissist incapable of any kind of love.

Othering failure (incapable of perceiving others as separate or external objects).

Positive and negative emotions intertwined.

Cognitive over emotional.

Bad object validation as unlovable: projective identification.

Superiority, power (love is mundane, weakness) lead to contempt.

Reenactment of early childhood conflicts (separation-individuation)

Love is incestuous.

Love ends in pain, abandonment, is unsafe, a loss of control over threats (external locus), anxiogenic.

Love conditioned on performance, transactional, benefits.
