Yes, narcissists can fake empathy. It's something they learn to do from childhood and they become very good at it. It is very convincing, especially with covert narcissists. It's called mirroring.

They fake it.  It's learned behavior, but they don't FEEL it.

I know a diagnosed narc and they described it as never feeling guilt or empathy like normal people.  But, they will act concerned/empathetic.  IT's surface level.

The same people can cheat, treat others like crap, lie and not having any remorse or feeling to the victims.  Yet, they likely have a social media page outlining all the ways they are ooohhh soooo selfless and charitable.  That is to get external validation.[/quote]

They can sometimes feel it but just don’t care, other peoples feelings are information for them to use for their own benefit. They are master manipulators. Don’t confuse empathy with conscience.[/quote]
