A night out with a narcissist is not like a night out with a neuro-typical. You quickly realise it’s NOT about you. Not one bit. It’s ALL about the narcissist.

In my experience, a night out with a narcissist is usually not very enjoyable. There’s a few reasons for this, which I’ll discuss in this article.

Here I’ll talk about some of the things a narcissist does on a night out. And why your night is often ruined. See if you recognise any of these behaviours…

Expect Lateness

If you’re meeting a narcissist and you’ve known them a while, expect them to be late. Narcissists place a high value on their time, but not on yours.

Narcissists like to be the last one to show up. It makes them feel special, making their “grand entrance” like royalty. Keeping their peasants waiting.

Turning up late is a subtle show of disrespect. Designed to establish who’s boss.

Narcissists Go Where THEY Want

On a night out with a narcissist, don’t expect much say on where you go. Once they arrive late, the narcissist usually dictates where you go.

The whole night is about them and what THEY want. They don’t consider your preferences. And you have to fight hard if you want to be heard. It’s THEIR night, not yours. So you often find yourself following them around the places they want to go.

They Flirt In Front Of You

If you’re in a relationship with a narcissist, expect them to flirt in front of you. A narcissist is like a kid in a candy store on a night out. There’s so much supply to be gained. And they can’t help themselves.

Narcissists LOVE attention and being adored. Especially from strangers. And they’re not gonna let anything stand in their way.

Some flirt outrageously. Whereas others are more subtle. Either way, they will deny they were flirting if you say anything. And accuse you of being a party-pooper, crazy, jealous, etc.

They may even flirt with other people who are in a couple. Their boundaries become more blurred than usual in the euphoria of a night out.

Some like to deliberately make you jealous. There’s nothing more ego satisfying for a narcissist than having two people fight over them. Which is what they want.

Narcissists Disappear With Strangers

Narcissists love attention from strangers so much, they sometimes disappear. Even though they’re supposed to be out with you.

They can’t resist impressing new people. Which means you’re quickly forgotten about. You might stumble into them, talking to strangers like they’ve known them for years. And they won’t even introduce you to their new found “friends”. As they don’t want you stealing their thunder.

You End Up Looking After Them

If you’re close to the narcissist, they’ve probably established your role as their carer. Narcissists want people to look after them. Even during a night out.

In my experience, narcissists often drink too much. To the point they’re not safe without assistance. But don’t worry, you’re here to help them. And you somehow feel responsible for them.

Instead of enjoying yourself, you spend most of the night making sure they’re alright. While they stumble around, without a care in the world.

Cause Trouble

Most narcissists are “bad drunks”. And behave more obnoxious and arrogant, the more drunk they get. Which often lands them in trouble. And you by association.

When drinking, the narcissists mask often slips. Alcohol reduces their inhibitions, so they no longer care about maintaining their “nice” façade. So their true narcissist self surfaces.

Often they get away with it. As people put it down to “the drink talking”. But you’re well aware they might act obnoxious to the wrong person. Or push things too far. Leaving you nervous and on edge.

They’re like a ticking time bomb. And you often sense trouble is just around the corner. Which puts a dampener on your night. But not theirs.

Narcissists Don’t Want To Go Home

Narcissists often don’t know when to end a party. And they keep going long after most people have had enough.

The narcissist is in their element. They’re having fun, and impressing new people. Or so they think. Like a drug fuelled addict on a binge, they MUST continue. Narcissists are addicted to attention.

They don’t care about the next day, because their responsibilities aren’t important to them. And neither are yours.

They may tell you to “lighten up” if you say you need to go home. Even if they promised it won’t be a late night. All they care about is gaining narcissistic supply, in the form of attention.

Final Thoughts

A night out with a narcissist is often a nightmare. They usually show up late. Dictate where you go. And spend most of the night ignoring you whilst talking to strangers. And to top it off, you look after them when they get stupidly drunk and obnoxious.

But the narcissist sees things differently. They believe they’re the life and soul of the party. And EVERYBODY loves them. Whilst you’re preying for the night to end, the narcissist is in their element. And they don’t want the party to stop.

Narcissists don’t care what kind of night you’re having. It doesn’t enter their mind. And neither do thoughts about the next day. Because narcissists live in the moment.

They’re having a whale of a time. And they want to continue until they’ve extracted every ounce of supply they can. Thinking everyone loves them and their antics.

But annoyingly they’re sometimes right. Others are often too drunk to see through them. And find them hilarious and charming. And they don’t notice how they’re treating you or others close to them.

Your night was probably terrible. And they may have ruined other peoples too. But THEY had a great time. And that’s all that matters. They learned nothing. And can’t wait to do it all again.
