Narcissists are experts at mimicking love, but real love looks very different from narcissistic charm. While narcissists may shower you with attention, their affection often comes with strings attached. They seek control and validation, not genuine connection.

In contrast, true love is selfless, consistent, and patient. It doesn’t demand constant admiration or manipulate your emotions. When someone truly loves you, they respect your boundaries, support your growth, and prioritize your happiness without selfish motives.

To tell the difference, trust how the relationship makes you feel. Are you constantly anxious or unsure, or do you feel safe and valued? Real love allows you to thrive emotionally, while narcissistic charm leaves you drained and questioning yourself.
