Why do narcissists copy you? Mirroring in narcissistic relationships can be flattering, but also annoying, depending why the person is doing it. In this video I discuss why you might find the narcissist copying you. Narcissists copying you is not admiration — it is a form of narcissistic mirroring and identity competition.

A narcissist mirrors you for many different reasons, from manipulation to love bombing, gaslighting, to refill their narcissistic supply, or just because they haven't learned how to appropriately act in social situations. When the narcissist copies you, they are trying to behave as you are because they don't know how to be any different. The mirroring might initially appear to be the narcissist enjoying your company, but soon you will learn this is not a behavior you want in someone else. Your identity becomes their identity. This can lead to mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. In this video I will discuss 3 reasons the narcissist might be copying you.
