Hi all, new to the forum. I had to get this off my chest as this whole situation is really bothering me! I know its just T.V., but I have dated a narcissist before and I could tell right away Arie is one. I think Krystal realized it pretty early as well. He lacks empathy, he doesn't care how anyone feels-it is about power to him, and he gains power by seeing that his manipulative tactics work on the women. I would seriously advise any woman that dealt with him to read up on this topic and they will notice the signs! These people don't change...and Lauren is in for a lot of pain. This is actually pretty serious to me, other than he is just a "player". These are sick, very damaged individuals that abuse others. It can start with verbal or turn physical. Either way all the women involved need to hopefully come to be relieved that they escaped a sick person rather than be heartbroken.
Now that Lauren has already accepted his behavior, he views her as weak and knows he can get away with anything with her. Wonder why else he typically goes for younger women? Lauren being 25, she may not have had the life experience yet to understand how damaged he is. Notice how Krystal is 31, and understood it before any of the other girls. I just had to get this off my chest because these are actually toxic relationships and women should be warned about men like him! Also its funny how everyone thought Krystal was such a bad person when really she was the only one calling out his bullshit.
*end rant*
