Making a narcissist worry you isn’t about instilling terror or participating in dangerous habits. Moderately, it is about establishing wholesome boundaries, asserting your self-worth, and refusing to tolerate their manipulative ways.
Narcissists thrive on management and admiration. By making them worry you, you disrupt their sense of energy and pressure them to respect your limits. This will result in more healthy interactions, lowered emotional manipulation, and a better sense of self-protection.
