When the Narcissist Revealed Their “Favorite Type of Victim”

A friend of mine once interviewed a self-aware narcissist. What he confessed left chills down my spine. And recently, a psychologist confirmed the very same thing.

We often imagine that narcissists prey on the weak, the fragile, or the “broken.” But that isn’t the truth.

When asked what type of person he seeks out, this narcissist leaned in and said:

“I hunt the healers. The ones who see good in everyone. The ones who believe love can fix anything.”

Not the broken. The whole.

The Sick Logic Behind It

He explained why:

Broken people are already defeated — there’s “no thrill” in breaking them further.
Empaths, givers, and healers still carry hope, light, and forgiveness.
They’re the ones who keep believing—even when shown red flags.
Their compassion becomes a neon sign: “I will understand, I will forgive, I will love you anyway.”

And that’s exactly what predators crave.

Not because you’re weak. But because your heart is powerful.

The Trap They Count On

Narcissists know something heartbreaking:

You’ll apologize when they bump into you.
You’ll make excuses for their behavior.
You’ll say things like, “Everyone deserves love,” or “People can change.”
And when the relationship crumbles, you’ll blame yourself:
- Maybe I wasn’t patient enough.
- Maybe I loved them wrong.
- Maybe I’m too sensitive.

They don’t even have to do all the work — because you’ll destroy yourself with self-blame.

The Truth You Need to Hear

If you’re reading this and it feels like your story — hear me:

Your kindness is not weakness.
Your empathy is not a flaw.
Your ability to love is not the problem.

The problem is giving those gifts to people who see them as tools.

You were targeted for your light, not your darkness. Because your hope, your faith, and your ability to love are that valuable.

Protecting Your Light

If you’re a healer, giver, or empath: you’re not broken. You are precious. So precious that predators hunt you specifically.

The answer isn’t to harden your heart — it’s to learn how to recognize the wolves before they devour it.
