Thank you for this list! OP here. No, but I am specifically talking about the listed attributes, at work, or in other relationships.  Again, thank you for this list:

Having a sense of self-importance or grandiosity
[b]Experiencing fantasies about being influential, famous, or important[/b]
Exaggerating their abilities, talents, and accomplishments
[b]Craving admiration and acknowledgment[/b]
[b]Being preoccupied with beauty, love, power, or success[/b]
[b]Having an exaggerated sense of being unique[/b]
Believing that the world owes them something
Exploiting others to get what they want (no matter how it impacts others)
Lacking empathy toward others

[/quote]

Are all of these narcissistic traits? I don't think I'm a narcissist but I often have the bolded ones above. But I have a lot of empathy for others and definitely don't exploit people (the opposite, actually -- I think I can be too deferential). I always thought I just had low self esteem, but maybe I have narcissistic tendencies too.[/quote]
