The narcissist has become so disillusioned that he believes in statements with no logical basis. == Lying is a trait and vehicle which narcissists have acquired for self-preservation. It is a cover that works time and again until their credibility is impeached by facts. Because a narcissist doubts himself and has little or no self- regard, he doesn't believe anyone else will accept him also. Lying props him up to the outside world. However, when his cover is blown and the truth rears its ugly head, the narcissist is so ashamed that he withdraws from the person who exposed the truth about him. prior to the exposure of the truth, the narcissist believes no one will ever know, and is completely overwhelmed that his lack of integrity is exposed. he does have a conscience, generally concerning what others think of him. when he realizes his reputation has been tainted by his lying, he cannot accept responsibility for his own self-destructive behavior...ever! he rationalizes it is that disloyal nasty person who found him out and couldn't keep a secret. distorted thinking is a form of lying also.

Does the narcissist study manipulation techniques or does it come naturally?

I think that narcissist manipulation comes naturally for them. They have done this for all their lives and it is easy for them. They are professionals at lying, manipulation and cheating as far as I am concerned and it will never end. You can find a lying, manipulative and cheating relationship almost anywhere if that is what you want.
