bothsuffered from a condition known as Narcissistic PersonalityDisorder (NPD). While uncommon, NPD is a seriouspsychological disorder. The information below describessome of the more common symptoms of NPD. If you or someone you must interact with has NPD, seek help.Aureau Walding writes:
Injury to self-esteem of the narcissist underlies a resounding sense of shame and failure. The narcissist projects entitlement and self-importance often to unbelievable extremes. When a narcissist's failures are observed and pointed out by others, the overwhelmingsense of shame causes a backlash toward the person perceived as the perpetrator of the accusation of failure. The rage becomes pointed toward getting revenge upon the accuser. This often impairs thenarcissist's ability to think clearly and rationally in handling thesituation. The need for revenge, often called explosive rage, doesn't subside until the narcissist has placed the appropriate punishment upon the accuser.
From DSM-IV:In many cases, people with narcissistic personality disorder:
 
Are self-centered and boastful
 
Seek constant attention and admiration
 
Consider themselves better than others

Believe that they are entitled to special treatment
