=============================================================================

Narcissists appear ridiculously stupid because of their bloated egos that 
cannot be surpassed by anything but themselves.

Rudy's in denial about the way he REALLY is.

Narcissists often deny or deflect criticism, and it's not uncommon for them to 
deny things about themselves, even when faced with evidence to the contrary. 

There are several reasons for this behavior:

Defense mechanism: Denial is a defense mechanism that helps narcissists 
protect their self-image and avoid feelings of shame, guilt, or
vulnerability. By denying any negative aspects of themselves, they can 
maintain their grandiose self-image.

(it's a sickness)

Lack of self-awareness: Narcissists often have a limited ability to reflect on 
their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. They may genuinely believe that 
they are not flawed or that their behavior is justified.

Gaslighting: Narcissists may deny things to manipulate others and make them 
doubt their own perceptions or memories. This can be a way to control the 
narrative and maintain power over others.

Fear of vulnerability: Narcissists often struggle with vulnerability and 
intimacy. By denying any flaws or weaknesses, they can avoid feeling 
vulnerable or exposed.

Need for control: Narcissists often need to feel in control and maintain a 
sense of power over others. By denying criticism or negative feedback, they 
can assert their control and dominance.

In the case of your acquaintance, it's possible that they are using denial as 
a way to cope with the discomfort of hearing negative feedback or criticism. 
By talking about themselves in a positive light, they may be attempting to:

Reassert their self-image: By focusing on their positive qualities, they can 
reaffirm their self-image and maintain a sense of self-worth.

Distract from criticism: By dominating the conversation with positive self-
talk, they can shift the focus away from criticism or negative feedback.

Avoid accountability: By denying any problems or flaws, they can avoid taking 
responsibility for their actions or behaviors.

It's essential to remember that dealing with a narcissist can be challenging 
and emotionally draining. If you're concerned about this person's behavior or 
its impact on you or others, consider:

Setting boundaries: Establish clear boundaries and communicate your needs and 
expectations.
Seeking support: Talk to trusted friends, family, or a therapist about your 
experiences and feelings.
Maintaining emotional distance: Be cautious about getting too close or 
emotionally invested in this person's life.

Keep in mind that you can't change or fix a narcissist; your efforts are 
better spent on taking care of yourself and setting healthy boundaries.

Stupid? Hmm... yes.
