Narcissists like dependent people.

This applies to both men and women, who need to be appreciated and loved.

Other needs can also lead to attachment to toxic types.

This is exactly what narcissists need, they will enjoy your gratitude for what you received from them.

What to do about it

This will continue until a person learns to take responsibility for his own well-being.

Narcissists like to be rescued.

For these types, nothing is sacred and they are even ready to use their personal problems from the past in order to evoke pity and compassion.

As a result, you drop everything and, once again sacrificing your own interests, begin to arrange the life of yet another unfortunate acquaintance.

The would-be rescuer enjoys the feeling of self-importance that can make someone happy.

It is clear that it will not be possible to build healthy relationships in the long term.

What to do about it

This will continue until you learn to think about your own happiness, and not about how to make others happy.

That is why it is so important to protect your personal space, without which it will not be possible to resist manipulation.
