The first one is more dangerous because it can cause a person to lose interest in them. The second fear is losing control over a relationship. It’s even worse if their partner decides to leave before the relationship is truly over.
Another reason narcissists fear rejection and abandonment is that they can’t understand the reason behind their partner’s disappointment. They’re unable to accept why their partner would leave them—especially if they believe the partner discovered something that the narcissist doesn’t want people to know.
They feel devalued and attacked, and they can’t accept that reality. They believe they’re indispensable to their “dream,” and they’ll use their power to get anyone who doesn’t agree with them.
They don’t believe rejection is an option, so they’ll try to exploit others’ feelings by convincing themselves—and others—that they are essential. They’ll do anything they can to avoid rejection and abandonment.
Number Three: Narcissists Are Afraid You Will Expose Them
Narcissists are always trying to hide their insecurities, and they always lie to keep them hidden. They’ll do whatever they can to prevent people from discovering the truth and exposing their insecurities.
Therefore, they keep manipulating people and situations in order not to be exposed.
Number Four: Narcissists Are Afraid of Losing Control
When dealing with a narcissist, you might notice that they constantly display anxiety. This anxiety is an ongoing feeling of doom that narcissists project onto you. They accuse you of being negative, unsupportive, or selfish—using these accusations as a way to avoid the anxiety they feel about the relationship.
The more anxious they become, the more resentful they become toward you. They’ll do whatever is necessary to keep gaining control, while also preventing everyone from discovering the truth.
Well, that’s a brief explanation of why the narcissist is actually afraid of you.
