08:40 Recognize “Apparent” Vulnerability (Emotionality)!
Covert narcissism and covert narcissists are particularly confusing for survivors because the *appear* to be vulnerable, even though they’re not. And that can be especially troublesome for echoists, as I discussed in the previous video, who may see such moments of apparent vulnerability as a bid for the very caretaking they tend to be good at.

Then I give you a way to see way a head of time any trouble the relationship might bring into your life.
