I think anyone you pursue a relationship with deserves to know your diagnosis. I know most narcissists have a comfortable knack for lying, but that doesn't make it okay.

Not entirely. I have a close friend that's a narcissist, everyone knows it, and it allows all of us to understand her and how we interact with eachother. Sometimes she tries really hard not to react and behave in certain ways, and sometimes she's a cold, annoying bitch, but hey...I still love her.

Yeah she likes to be seen as the person who goes out of her way to always help people, but we call her ass out and tell her we know it's so she can post it to social media. She gets mad, but we're not blind to her bullshit. People will always figure out that part of you. Narcissists aren't psychopaths, they're not hard to spot.

Hm. That is bit of a cop out. It may be your personality. But you can do things to compensate for it. It just requires hard work. CBT. Otherwise, you will find yourself far more alone than you wish to be as people grow tired and burnt out from dealing with the personality.
