She is seen as white, he has her phone quantity, they’re buddies on social media websites, the Hoover Execution Standards are simply met and due to this fact he points a hoover by sending a textual content message. Word {that a} hoover happens as a part of seduction.
“Hello, dreamt about you final evening, higher not say although, you would possibly get too carried away earlier than work.”
The CANIPSS solutions inside seconds by textual content.
“Wow, I like that, go on, you possibly can inform me.” Optimistic gas, efficiency excessive as CANIPSS, amount low (written message) and one-off frequency.
Happy by the impact of the gas and the speedy response (signalling to the narcissist that the CANIPSS is coming beneath his management) he replies

The CANIPSS once more responds in seconds by textual content.

The narcissist doesn’t reply nevertheless, although the SIPSS is seen as white. She is on the shelf and he’s focussed on the CANIPSS as he impatiently awaits her response to his suggestion.
The CANIPSS texts again.
“I can’t do tonight. I’ve one thing on.”
This rejection wounds the narcissist. It’s only delicate in nature nevertheless as it’s by textual content. He’s barely irritated by this however as he’s within the seduction interval with the CANIPSS and due to this fact she is seen in a white method he maintains his management so the ignited fury doesn’t manifest. He replies by textual content to the CANIPSS.
“How about tomorrow evening?”
Simply then the IPPS (the cohab associate) seems on the bed room door. She is in devaluation and is seen as black.
“On the ‘telephone once more are we? You might be by no means off it, I swear it’s welded to your hand.” she says with a frown and a shake of her head. Destructive Problem Gasoline.

“Sure I’m as a result of somebody has to work arduous and produce the cash in to pay for you and your wretched wardrobe haven’t they?” he responds with a provocative remark designed to attract additional damaging gas however furthermore to stamp on the problem issued by the IPPS.
The IPPS places her fingers on her hips (damaging gas, very excessive efficiency, average amount – presence, facial features, physique language, frequency one off.
“Yeah, what I’m speaking about.” goads the narcissist with one other provocative comment. As he says this, he texts the CANIPSS once more.
“I do know this actually good Thai restaurant which you’ll love, my deal with naturally.” (After all this is similar Thai restaurant that the narcissist went to with the SIPSS evidencing his lack of distinction between the individuals he’s participating with as they’re home equipment to him.)
Fairly than look ahead to her response barely a minute after suggesting the restaurant, his lack of boundary recognition and sense of entitlement causes him to ship this textual content. Additional, the black view he has of the IPPS stays a stark distinction to the white view taken of the CANIPSS. In his thoughts the IPPS is a traitor, the CANIPSS the more and more loyal saviour.
“Oh and also you by no means purchase any garments do you?” retorts the IPPS in annoyance. Destructive Problem Gasoline, very excessive efficiency, vital amount (presence, spoken phrase, tone, facial features, physique language) , frequency one off.

“Sure, tomorrow can be nice, I might be free at 8pm, let me know the title of the restaurant, I can’t wait and if you’re good you possibly can come again for espresso afterwards.”
Optimistic gas, excessive efficiency, low amount and one-off frequency. The narcissist’s management is growing.
“Glorious. Can’t wait. Put on one thing sizzling, that blue gown actually fits you.” he texts again.
His prescriptive nature about telling the CANIPSS what to put on evidences his sense of entitlement and growing possession of the equipment that she is to him. He additionally, owing to this sense of entitlement and lack of accountability sees nothing mistaken with doing this and making the IPPS look ahead to him to reply. She stands ready, obtrusive, offering additional damaging gas. Her Problem to him has nonetheless not been dealt wth. The narcissist is edified by the constructive gas from the SIPSS, extra constructive gas from the CANIPSS however particularly from the damaging gas from the IPPS. His day has began very nicely certainly and it is just 7-30 am.

“Sure I did, I advised you yesterday, however you don’t pay attention, you by no means do, too caught up in your self.” He points a denial in opposition to her accusation of not having advised her concerning the engagement with Ian which is a part of the Narcissist’s First Line of Defence (see the article The Narcissist’s Twin Traces of Defence). He’s additionally searching for to stamp out her problem by shifting the tack of the dialogue (an instinctive response) by the manipulation of Projection by accusing her of the very factor he does.
“No you didn’t. you didn’t say something,” she says in annoyance. Once more Problem Gasoline of a damaging selection. Efficiency et al stays the identical.
The narcissist shifts manipulation (instinctively) once more by ignoring her. Current Silent Remedy. Her standing as seen black causes him to consider asserting his superiority additional although she IPPS won’t know what he’s doing, in his thoughts, he’s gaining superiority by this subsequent act.
The narcissist texts the SIPSS.
“Hello, good to listen to from you, I used to be nearly to textual content you once you texted me.” (A lie however it would make the SIPPS really feel wished).
“How about lunch as we speak at 1pm? My deal with. The Thai restaurant is open at lunch as nicely.”
(Word the second supply to purchase a meal for somebody outdoors of his relationship – a somatic gesture of generosity)
The IPPS stands ready for a solution. She remains to be offering damaging gas from her stance, frown and obtrusive eyes. The narcissist continues to disregard her sustaining the Current Silent Remedy.
The SIPSS replies by textual content
“Yeah, nice, I did have one thing on at 12-30 however I can transfer it for you (Provider Empath – poor boundary assertion) I’ll meet you at 1pm, can’t wait.”

Her textual content is constructive gas of excessive efficiency, low amount and one-off frequency.
“Oh neglect it!” hisses the IPPS she stays ignored because the narcissist begins flicking by a set of images he has exchanged with the SISPS which provides him a small quantity of Thought Gasoline alongside the damaging gas that the IPPS continues to pump out as she is ignored and aggravated.

The well-fuelled narcissist smiles and at last rises from his mattress. It’s only 7-37 am and his day has begun reasonably nicely for him.
IPPS stays in devaluation and painted black.
Candidate IPSS is prime candidate in seduction, painted white and the narcissist will repeatedly hoover her throughout the day in a benign method, forward of their date tomorrow evening.
