Our exchange rate against the US dollar and the currencies of most of our trading
partners has
shown little net change over the past year, and the rise in the trade - weighted index in recent months has been due mainly to the
weakness being experienced by the Japanese yen.
For a classic narcissist, emotional vulnerability is akin to
weakness, meaning that they suppress it in themselves and make their
partners feel needy for not doing the same.6 Yet, dating a narcissist
shows you that this sort of thinking is a roadblock for relationship progression: if you can't be vulnerable with someone (and accept their vulnerabilities in turn), you can never achieve emotional intimacy and the trust, love, and security that come with it.
Being safe in relationship without being judged by your
partner for your authentic expression creates a secure environment that encourages you to
show your strengths as much as your
weaknesses.
