A narcissistic man wants a “perfect wife” not because he values perfection—but because he wants control, validation, and image management.
Here’s the truth, clearly explained:
⸻
🧠 1. She is an extension of his ego
To a narcissist, a wife is not a partner—she’s a reflection of him.
• Her looks = his status
• Her obedience = his power
• Her silence = his comfort
If she looks “perfect,” he feels superior.
⸻
🎭 2. Image matters more than intimacy
He wants the world to see:
• a beautiful wife
• a calm marriage
• a successful man
Behind closed doors, empathy is replaced by control. The “perfect wife” is a prop in his public performance.
⸻
🔒 3. Perfection means compliance
For him, “perfect” means:
• no questioning
• no boundaries
• no emotions that inconvenience him
The moment you express needs, pain, or independence—you become “difficult.”
⸻
⚖️ 4. He avoids accountability
If you are imperfect, then he never has to change.
Blame keeps shifting:
• your tone
• your mood
• your reaction
Perfection becomes a moving target you can never reach.
⸻
🧩 5. He fears being exposed
A real, confident woman can:
• see through manipulation
• challenge lies
• set limits
So he tries to shrink her into a box, where she’s easier to manage.
⸻
🌱 The deeper truth
A healthy man wants a real wife.
A narcissist wants a manageable one.
