He's always the last one to leave a party

He forgets his wallet

He is always late

Why do we still feel attached or jealous when a covert narcissist moves on, even after realizing their toxicity and the suffering they caused?

He's never available on Saturdays

He doesn't like her cat

He's always helping his ex

How many Russians really understand the state they live in?

He always cracks his knuckles.
