*** This is a much more spiritually-angled article than my other more psychologically oriented ones. I speak about souls and vibrations. I suggest you stop reading now if this makes no sense to you.***

Is it really just the sparkly, charming persona, and the effusively loving, soul- entrancing behaviors, that make the Narcissist so appealing? I think not. After having spent years and years studying what in the world makes almost all the Empaths I have known, be drawn to Narcissists, I have come to this theory.

Narcissists are enormously brilliant souls. They are so completely beautiful, or rather, were at one time, so completely pure and stunningly gorgeous. There is something multi-faceted, deep, awe-inspiring, and wise about their souls. They have powerful souls, and their vibration stands out in a crowd, for this reason. They are, in many ways, like twin souls, in vibration, to Empaths, who also have beautifully brilliant, complex souls. On a mundane level, I find it interesting that Empaths and Narcissists often come out of similar childhood and family backgrounds, as developmentally, it would make sense their souls are fundamentally of a similar vibration.
