Unless they are part of the smart and most subtle manipulators. The most known being the covert narcissist (image is everything for this type), the malignant narcissist and the psychopath with no anti-social traits.

The second and third kinds are the most dangerous human predators on earth. Far more dangerous than the crulest criminals (psychopaths displaying anti-social traits). They are capable of cognitive empathy and consequently belong to the "dark empaths" classification (a spectrum as well).

They are dangerous because instead of threating people's lives (in which care they most probably could be held accountable of their crimes), they respect the rules and will never break them; thus, threatening their victims' sanity without being ever held accountable... Being able of cognitive empathy (they understand people's emotions) and masters of profiling in no time and mirroring, it is a piece of cake for them!

They are found in every industry and in the executive positions more frequently than I’d like to admit it... Those manipulators have some of the most performing memories. They learned to stock as much information as possible as a survival strategy and a means to compensate for their disconnection from their inner-world. Simply put, they needed a way to nurture their delusional grandiosity.

I talked about this issue in relation to creativity here, should you be interested:

In summary, your Dick is HARMLESS, to be frank! And I'm glad for you, my friend!
