I know I'm going to get ripped into for making this post, but I'm curious as to what all of you believe.
So I've been told on a fair few occasions that I'm a narcissist - both jokingly and seriously but I'm not convinced. From what I gather, this is largely as a result of thinking I'm good looking, far more intelligent than most, and generally on my way to a very successful career.
But here's what I don't understand - what if I am all of those things? As someone who's studied maths at Oxford I tend to view things in a very objective and logical manner - and objectively I am all of those things. I'm not just good at maths though, I have an interest in a whole host of subjects and am a talented artist.
As for looks, I'm tall (6'3"), athletic, have a 6-pack etc....and am considered very good looking. I've never struggled to pull on a night out and women practically throw themselves at me. Even me saying this will come across I'm sure as narcissistic and yet I'm simply stating a fact.
So my question is, is it still narcissistic if it's true? And if so, why is simply being objective about your current position considered a bad thing?
