is this person narcissistic?

Can somebody tell me if this person is narcissistic, wants to be in control? this person knows I don't answer the phone after a certain time in the evening but always calls me at that time or after that time.

I've asked this person please don't call me after a certain time and they've acknowledged that they understood what I said. But still, continue to call me even when I ignore it. if I answer the phone the conversation is 1 sided and it's always repetitive. The same subject and moans every time.

If this person leaves a message The first sentence is oh I forgot you don't answer the phone at a certain time (Giggle giggle) then fill up my answer machine with a repetitive message.

Better, redirect their number to their own number.

There's a lot more to narcissistic behaviour. The person you refer to isn't respecting your wishes/boundaries despite them claiming to!

I wouldn't jump to narcissism but they're definitely intentionally seeing if they can push your clearly stated boundaries.

What have you to lose by directly confronting them?

Eh, I'm not sure any of us could give her that label without being an expert on narcs and knowing more information, and even then, we are not professionals. O.o

I guess you have to ask yourself does this person deserve to be a part of your life? Sounds pretty disrespectful to me, but you've got to weigh up if she's worth it or not.

They are not respecting you and don't deserve your time. I would switch my phone off and not have it go to answering machine. If you don't want calls after a certain time then you shouldn't have them.

It seems like this person likes to chat after a certain time in the evening, maybe that’s the only time they have free to chat…., but you don’t like to chat after a certain time in the evening. This person phones you after a certain time in the evening even though they know you don’t answer your phone after a certain time in the evening, you have told this person not to phone you after a certain time in the evening even though you know this person likes to chat after a certain time in the evening. So you’re accusing this person of being narcissistic and controlling because they phone you when you’ve told them you don’t answer the phone but you’ve told them not to phone you at the time when you know they want to chat….so before accusing other people of being narcissistic and controlling I think you should look at your own actions and consider whether you’re being narcissistic and controlling.

They are being a twat and you are not enforcing your boundaries so are enabling their behaviourto continue.

You can't change their behaviour .... and clearly asking them not to call hasnt changed their behaviou ......but you can control your reaction and what you do.

So it's your choice .... you can change the situation ... but do you really want to?

The person is repeatedly calling you beyond a stated time you have asked not to be called.

There is a lot to unpack here.

1. They are exercising control over you. This is a dominance play.

2. They call you on or very close to the stated time. They know that at this time you are likely to be anxious and waiting for their call. They are deliberately engineering an anxious and dependent/anticipatory state in you. It's a form of remote, coercive sadism. Again, a dominant move, tinged with sadism.

3. When you answer, a normal conversation is not had. It is one sided and repetitive. Narcissistic. You will listen to them, because they have engineered it to be so. You are being conditioned and they are controlling this narrative.

4. The "giggle" is a diversionary tactic used to solicit sympathy and forgiveness and undermine your rational judgement. When babies gurgle, parents coo and ahh. It's a form of conditioning and control. The subject's reversion to child-like behaviour is a red flag that their grip on reality is tenuous at best. However it may not be that at all, if the giggling is deliberate, in which case it is highly-developed and finely honed manipulation.

If you'd said you were playing a D\s game, this would all make sense. If it's not a game, then I'd run a mile.

Whatever it is, I wish you well.

Yep pretty much this. You're allowing it to continue for some reason even though you say you don't like it happening.

I know if someone did it to me I'd block them or have my phone on do not disturb like I do every night after a certain time with only a handful of numbers who are allowed to get through in case of an emergency.And their number would not be on the list.

By allowing them to continue to get through you are enabling the behaviour so you need to look at why are you doing this.

Over used word of the time is over used.

Also trying to apply diagnostic criteria in such a limited and biased way, also over used.

If you are unhappy though, cut ties.

That is actually enough of a reason too. No need for the current zeitgeist or popular nomenclature to justify it, let alone public opinion.

You're unhappy enough to ask, that's indicative. So do it.

If you dont like it, do something about it, like blocking them.

Were you originally flattered by their attention then, and consequently afraid you will miss the contact?

Mist modern smart phones have features to restrict callers from certain times / abilities .

Personally I would just not answer it and leave it on silent .

I have the BT phone that vets calls. You can accept once, all time or block. That way once you put their number in phone they cannot get through, ever. 74 pounds for 3 handsets. BT callblocker

All of you berating this poor person are mean. This person clearly suffers from a medical condition.

Based on my knowledge, the medical term is "massivus bellendus" and it seems they also suffer from "boundarius disrespectus".

There is no cure, unfortunately. All you can do is deal with the symptoms. Block the calls. Delete the number. And move on

No O.P. I don't think they are narcissistic simply because they phoned after your boundary time.

In fact I am tired of people being labelled incorrectly for simply not liking the same food as someone else and similar.

My phone is set to go to Do Not Disturb at 22.00 hours until 07.00 hours.

My family know to ring the land line if there is an emergency between those times.

Using my phone settings means that I don't get disturbed between those hours and I don't have to beg, plead, get frustrated with or alienate others.

I CONTROL my phone .......... does that make me a narcissist ? Not in my book.

Use your settings or own the times you get disturbed.

OP, I'm not sure you'll find the answer here, your post is quite vague, and with not much to go off, nobody can say yay or nay.

I'm happy to chat, if you feel that can help, maybe get things off your chest or seek another perspective.

Not sure narcissism is the right word here. But definitely terrible behaviour. I think you can silent calls from just one person?
