Seeking build partners
What if we could protect each other from narcissistic harm — before it happens?
The Problem
Dealing with narcissistic individuals is exhausting and emotionally draining. The advice from experts consistently boils down to one painful truth: you cannot fix or change a narcissist — you can only walk away and avoid them.
But how do you avoid someone you don’t know is a narcissist until it’s too late?
The Vision
Narcilist is a community-driven directory and network where users can share experiences and flag narcissistic behavior patterns. Think of it like the “Tea” app (which lets women anonymously review dates) — but for navigating narcissism in all relationships: professional, personal, and social.
How It Could Work
- Share experiences — Document behavioral patterns you’ve encountered
- Search before engaging — Check if others have flagged someone before entering a relationship or partnership
- Collective wisdom — Transform painful personal lessons into communal protection
- Privacy-first — Focus on behavioral patterns rather than personal attacks
Why This Matters
Narcissistic behavior doesn’t just hurt individuals — it erodes workplaces, damages families, and fragments communities. Research links rising narcissistic traits to overconsumption, declining empathy, and social dysfunction. By pooling our knowledge, we help restore accountability and collective safety.
This requires thoughtful, ethical execution. Looking for partners with relevant expertise in community safety, privacy, and behavioral psychology.
