Ignoring a narcissist can trigger a range of reactions and behaviors, which may depend on the severity of their narcissistic traits or personality disorder. Some possible outcomes of ignoring a narcissist include:
-
Intensified efforts to gain attention: If a narcissist feels ignored, they may increase their efforts to gain attention and admiration from others. This may involve acting out or engaging in attention-seeking behavior.
-
Anger or hostility: If a narcissist feels ignored, they may become angry or hostile towards the person who is ignoring them. This may involve lashing out, verbally or physically, or engaging in passive-aggressive behavior.
-
Manipulation or gaslighting: A narcissist may attempt to manipulate or gaslight the person who is ignoring them, in an effort to regain their attention and control over the situation.
-
Discard and move on: In some cases, a narcissist may simply discard the person who is ignoring them and move on to someone else who can provide them with the attention and admiration they desire.
