Covert Narcissistic Sister Play and Deceive with "Poor Little Me"

Covert narcissistic sisters play the "poor little me" role in their families to psychologically unhinge and wreak havoc on their non-narcissistic brothers and sisters. They start very early telling lies to the parents about their siblings while playing the innocent role to the hilt.

As they grow older their sabotage escalates, causing great pain emotional and psychological pain. They plot and take boyfriends away from their sisters by telling lies or revealing secrets or conjuring up dirty secrets. They are believable; their lying skills are impeccable.

Parents often make excuses for them especially if this the Golden Child:"Oh, she is shy and dependent; she is not capable of lying; give her a chance; she's unsure of herself; you have to be kind to her."

As she grows older and her psychopathology deepens the CNS becomes even bolder. As the parents age, the CNS  becomes "indispensable" to them. In secret she plots and gains power and access to all of their financial assets---properties, investments, etc.
When the parents are gone, everything is left to her—a pittance or less to the other siblings.  Who's saying "Poor Little Her" now!

Covert narcissists are difficult to detect. Learn to recognize them. They are too "good" to be true. Always trust your Intuition, your Gut, that Sense of Knowing you have that is a great gift.
