Anatomy of the narc-a-relationship:

1. Charm the target
2. Become super interested in target
3. Study and learn all about target & family and friends
4. Begin to isolate target/distance from friends and family
5. Alternate between positive and negative feeling to unbalance target
6. Gaslight target
7. Control target
8. Devalue target
9. Look for target replacement, then discard target
10. Go on crazy rampage. Then repeat.
