berating yet adorable

narcissistic | ˌnärsəˈsistik adj. having an excessive or erotic interest in oneself and one’s physical appearance Everybody knows the definition but I don’t think one really knows until experiencing daily life. With one. Up close. For years. They can be tricky because we want them to like us. We crave their approval yet they seldom offer any. And then if they hug us we can breathe again. They’re malicious and berating yet adorable and charming. Walking in a sea of flowers with landmines buried underneath. Be even more wary when the vain are parading around town in a love bus.
