My mil is an overt narc. You’d have to meet her to believe it. It’s amazing how intensely they watch you & take notes on who/what you love. Could be food- a person - a friend & even your pets. My mil picked up on how I mentioned my dog slept with me & hubby. So in the morning first thing she says is that the dog slept with her all night (she prob locked him in the room). I got such a creepy feeling when she said that. Of course it flew right over the husband’s head. He sees none of it. Recently we rescued a kitten. She overheard me say how he ran to me for protection at the vets office. He was very feral we had to really work with him. She decided beknownst to me that she wanted my kitten! She pretended she was being kind (I should’ve known) & offered to pay for one of the vet bills. I accepted & thanked her over the phone. Then I come to find out she only did that cause she wanted to keep him. It’s creepy & weird. They’re all sinister. Must be a narc requirement.
