Transcript
- 0:00So what type of person does a narcissist typically pursue or
- 0:05go after? That's what we're talking about
- 0:08today, y'all. Five types of people that a
- 0:12narcissist will pursue or go after death from the perspective
- 0:16of a narcissist. If you're new here, my name is
- 0:18Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist.
- 0:20And what was another episode of The Narcissist Code?
- 0:40So blam, blam. Welcome back, folks.
- 0:44Welcome back. Welcome back.
- 0:45Yeah, yeah. What type of person, what type
- 0:47of human does a narcissist go after?
- 0:53That's the that's the question of today.
- 0:55Well, Lee, I'll go and let you know right now.
- 0:57Narcissists go after weak people.
- 0:59Not so fast, Lee, I'll let you know right now to go off the
- 1:02empathetic people. Not so fast.
- 1:05Could those be true? And weak people is a very.
- 1:08I don't like using the word weak.
- 1:09It's just kind of. Yeah, there's different words we
- 1:11could use other than weak, right?
- 1:13But today I've compiled a list of five types of people that a
- 1:18narcissist will go after. You got to stay to the end,
- 1:21right? The first type of person is drum
- 1:25roll. Jump roll.
- 1:25Please. I need a video editor.
- 1:29Yeah, 'cause I I wish I had drumroll sit right there.
- 1:32But the first type of person is a strong person.
- 1:38Lee, what the hell are you talking about?
- 1:40Strong people, why they hear strong people won't go for
- 1:44narcissist. You be surprised.
- 1:46Strong people don't end up with narcissist.
- 1:48You be surprised. Strong people would just know
- 1:52with see through a narcissist BS quickly.
- 1:54You be surprised, narcissistic people, including myself.
- 1:57This is some some of this stuff on this list or it's going to go
- 2:00for me. Like I love strong people.
- 2:02I love strong women women. Oh goodness.
- 2:04I don't know. It's just it's something about
- 2:06them, right. That's why I think I've always
- 2:08kind of been attracted to older women older than me because it's
- 2:12just they had their stuff together and they were, you
- 2:13know, they exuded this strength. It's just I don't know, I love I
- 2:16love it. He's got a smiling now, just
- 2:18there's a lot of people, when you hear these, the red pill
- 2:20podcasters, like no man, no alpha, no alpha male would go
- 2:24for an older woman. You shut the fuck up.
- 2:26That's some weirdo shit, man, Seriously, that always has to
- 2:29make me, you know, But seriously, that's how my mind
- 2:32works. But it really is a lot of
- 2:35narcissists do go after strong people because they, I, I'm
- 2:37attracted to the strength. I don't know why.
- 2:39It's just something about me. It's something about the people,
- 2:42but narcissists go after strong people, you know it, It just
- 2:45happens like sometimes if you like, because I can't think of
- 2:48another word, the opposite of strength.
- 2:51Sometimes people go after, sometimes narcissists do.
- 2:53Sometimes narcissists end up with people who are the opposite
- 2:57of strength, right? Who who lacked the strength,
- 2:59they lack the strength. They end up with them, but they
- 3:02treat, they just run over top of it and they bulldoze that type
- 3:04of person, right? They bulldoze them and treat
- 3:07them horribly. And sometimes they look, just
- 3:08look at them like they're pathetic and they discard them
- 3:11viciously. For a strong person, for a
- 3:14person that has their stuff together.
- 3:15It's kind of crazy how it works though, y'all?
- 3:17So a lot of narcissists, narcissists will go after strong
- 3:21people just for the hell of it, right?
- 3:23The next type of person that I have now, right here, y'all is
- 3:27vulnerable people. Yes, vulnerable people can be
- 3:32targeted by narcissists. Now, could impacts or empathetic
- 3:36people fall into this category? Yeah, this this subtype.
- 3:39You could, right? You absolutely could.
- 3:41A lot of people could fall into this subtype of vulnerable
- 3:43people because you might be, when I say vulnerable, I mean
- 3:47you could be grieving. You could be going through some
- 3:49type of grief, you could be coming out of a relationship.
- 3:53You could be sad, you could be unhappy.
- 3:55You could be there's something going on.
- 3:57You didn't get a job promotion. You're going out like your cat
- 3:59passed away. Your dog ran off because, you
- 4:02know, it's 4th of July and your dog ran off because they're
- 4:05shooting fireworks and the neighbors are shooting fireworks
- 4:08and your dog took off running and never came home.
- 4:10Like that type of stuff does happen.
- 4:12You see what I'm saying? So they do go after some people
- 4:15who are extremely vulnerable. Vulnerable people end up with
- 4:18narcissists all the time, you know, and a lot of times during
- 4:22your, during this period of vulnerability, this narcissist
- 4:25will be around you and they'll, he'll help, they'll help you get
- 4:28through this time, this vulnerable time, right?
- 4:31This time of do you need somebody?
- 4:34They'll help you get through this time and it'll just make
- 4:36you feel that'll make you feel weirder.
- 4:38I promise you it will. It's one of the things that
- 4:40happens where they'll help you get through the vulnerability,
- 4:43get through this vulnerable time, and they'll shoot you
- 4:44horribly. It's crazy how that works out.
- 4:49The next type that I have written down right here before
- 4:52we go to #3 out, if you haven't already, check out my new
- 4:55course, Finding Your Why about how to heal from a narcissistic
- 4:59abuse, abusive relationship. It's called finding your why.
- 5:02It's available at mentalillness.net, mental
- 5:06illness.net. But yes, so the third type,
- 5:12thank you for sticking around is religious people.
- 5:15Yo, Oh my goodness, boy, this when I go, when I, when I start
- 5:19talking about religious people, so many people take this the
- 5:22wrong way. They get rubbed the wrong way.
- 5:23And I understand, I can understand it, right?
- 5:25I get it. But religious people are targets
- 5:28for narcissists because religious like this is not
- 5:30y'all. I'm a religious person.
- 5:32I'm more, I'm more spiritual, but I'm a religious person.
- 5:34I'm a believer God. I'm not here where I'm at right
- 5:37now without God, without the word of God.
- 5:39I read the whole Bible. I'm not here without, without
- 5:42God, right? So I know in this situation it's
- 5:45going to be tough to understand. But like religious people, you
- 5:48don't need physical proof that things exist.
- 5:52You, you walk by faith, right? Walk by faith, not by sight,
- 5:55right? So narcissists use that to their
- 5:57advantage. You got to believe that I'm
- 6:00going to change. You got to believe that God put
- 6:02me here. God told me to come talk to you.
- 6:05God said this. God said that.
- 6:07You become an easy target for an abusive person when you're hyper
- 6:11religious and you don't question anything, right?
- 6:14Especially if this narcissistic person is a pseudo religious
- 6:17themselves or, or, or a yeah they, they might, yeah, Somebody
- 6:22that could be pastors. Your pastor could be a toxic,
- 6:25abusive narcissist. Imagine how crazy they sound
- 6:28right there. Your pastor is a narcissist.
- 6:29Your pastor is abusive. Your pastor is a horrible human
- 6:32being, right. Your pastor is a terrible
- 6:35person. But I heard picking people off
- 6:38from the church. The I just did a video on my
- 6:40other channel, my reaction channel, where the pastor had a
- 6:43side chick. The yeah, the pastor had a side
- 6:45chick and the wife knew about it and she was helping him get
- 6:47ready. So religious people are targeted
- 6:50by narcissists cause narcissists, some narcissists
- 6:52just target religion as a whole because of, you know, the, the
- 6:56things about some of the things about religion that they like,
- 6:59right? So religious people can
- 7:00absolutely become a target for narcissistic abusive people.
- 7:06The 4th I have right here is unavailable.
- 7:12Unavailable people become targets for narcissists.
- 7:15Believe. What the hell does that even
- 7:17mean? Unavailable?
- 7:18If you're unavailable, then you're not going to be with
- 7:20anybody. That's incorrect.
- 7:22You yourself could be in a relationship.
- 7:25You yourself could be married. You yourself could be.
- 7:29You know what I'm saying? It's just like sometimes they go
- 7:31for people that are unavailable, like because they themselves are
- 7:34technically unavailable. The only time I hear these,
- 7:36these stories about people that are married, that narcissist
- 7:40target. Yeah, sometimes I've, I've heard
- 7:42these stories before where narcissists only target married
- 7:45people because you have something to lose.
- 7:47Like if I'm married and you're married, you have something to
- 7:49lose. You're not going to tell my wife
- 7:52because that'll ruin your life as well.
- 7:55You're not going to tell your boyfriend because they'll ruin
- 7:57your relationship. You're not going to tell your
- 7:58girlfriend or whoever this situation might be.
- 8:00You see what I'm saying? You're not going to tell your
- 8:01husband. You're not going to tell your
- 8:02wife because they will blow your own shit up.
- 8:04So you're not going to say anything about me.
- 8:06So your availability can't attract some narcissist.
- 8:09Your availability is important right here, y'all.
- 8:11So that's why I tell. I tell this to so many people.
- 8:13You being available is absolutely important.
- 8:16It really is. So it's just like as you keep
- 8:19moving on, as things keep going forward, you have to understand
- 8:21that your availability has could play a role in it.
- 8:24You could be unavailable and a narcissist comes come and comes
- 8:27and catches you while you're in a vulnerable state.
- 8:29You see what I'm saying? You could be grieving and the
- 8:32laws of a pet or something like that or something happens to
- 8:35your family or your mom, but you married and the narcissist comes
- 8:37there and you married to a narcissist.
- 8:39Yeah, it's so many do moving pieces, but narcissist can
- 8:42absolutely. And a lot of times we do target
- 8:45unavailable people. I know everybody going,
- 8:47everybody going to have something to say about this.
- 8:49Like we'll leave if they're unavailable and they're
- 8:51cheating. They're horrible people too.
- 8:53Hey, we listen, we don't judge. I know people going to say like,
- 8:57why y'all? If you're unavailable, you
- 8:59shouldn't be doing the narcissist anyway.
- 9:01Hey, manipulation works differently, doesn't it, y'all?
- 9:07The last one I have written down y'all and if y'all have any,
- 9:10let's say in the comment sections, drop.
- 9:13What made you drop one of these? If you fall, if you fall into
- 9:15one of these five categories, drop it in the comment section.
- 9:18If you don't fall into one of these categories, drop why you
- 9:20think they picked you, why you think they chose you, like what
- 9:24type of person you are and why they went out to you.
- 9:28The last one I got right here y'all is people close to them.
- 9:31A lot of nurses go after slash target people that are close to
- 9:35them, not just physically close to them.
- 9:38Like not just yeah, proximity matters.
- 9:40Like you can be close to me in proximity wise, right?
- 9:44You can absolutely be close to me that way.
- 9:46But when I say narcissists target close people, this is
- 9:49their friends and people around them.
- 9:52Like are you How many times when I'm doing my one on ones over
- 9:54Zoom and whatnot, those are still my one on ones are still
- 9:57available and mental illness.net as well.
- 9:59Every time I've been doing my one on ones over Zoom and people
- 10:03just would tell me they're just like well I started dating.
- 10:06We we were friends for a long time and then we started dating.
- 10:12We were friends. This is my cousin's my cousin's
- 10:16best friend. This is my my brother's best
- 10:19friend, my sister's best friend. Like y'all all have been around
- 10:23each other for a while, so it is they're close proximity and
- 10:27they're close to you relationship wise, right?
- 10:30This could this person, you could already be around this
- 10:32person for a while and y'all could be friends for a while.
- 10:35Y'all could be dating other people, married to other people,
- 10:37then just somehow become single at the same time.
- 10:40Or they can pursue you while you're unavailable.
- 10:42You can fall into two of these categories, 2 or more of these
- 10:44categories, Y'all, you can be a strong person that's vulnerable
- 10:47because you're going through something that's also
- 10:49unavailable, that's also religious and that's close to
- 10:52this person. You said you could fall into all
- 10:535 and they can get you, right? You'll be the perfect target.
- 10:57They have to be 5 for five you, you can be 5 for five, right?
- 11:00So it's just like sometimes your closeness to this person, this
- 11:02is your friend or the family member or somebody like that,
- 11:05that they could get you, right? Because I, when I say family
- 11:08member, I don't mean any type of like pancestral, right?
- 11:12I'm talking about like narcissist.
- 11:14The narcissist is your family member and they target you
- 11:16because you're a family. Like it's not always going to be
- 11:18an intimate relationship, right? It can be friends, family
- 11:21members, it can be cousins, brothers, sisters, aunts, Co
- 11:25workers that you get targeted because you're close to them,
- 11:29right? You know what I'm saying?
- 11:30You're you're their child. Is this could be your parent,
- 11:32your narcissist could be a parent.
- 11:33You're close to them because you're their child.
- 11:35You say proximity does matter, but also the relationship
- 11:38dynamic as well, y'all. So I appreciate y'all tuning in
