If You Saw Fewer Than 20 Triangles<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019re not a narcissist \u2014 far from it.
You saw what was there and moved on. You probably didn\u2019t even care that much about getting the \u201cright\u201d answer. You don\u2019t need to win. You don\u2019t need to be impressive. You\u2019re probably emotionally grounded, secure, maybe even a little self-effacing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But here\u2019s the flip side: you might also miss the deeper layers<\/strong> \u2014 not just in puzzles, but in people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You take things as they are. You don\u2019t overthink. You\u2019re self-aware. Detail-oriented. Competitive enough to want to get it right, but not obsessed. You play by the rules \u2014 until someone challenges you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is where functional narcissism<\/strong> often hides. You want to be respected. You don\u2019t need to dominate, but you do want your intelligence recognized. You need to feel competent. You hate<\/em> being wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If someone else says they saw more triangles? You\u2019ll go back and count again \u2014 not because they might be right, but because you need to know you weren\u2019t wrong<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t want validation\u2026 Now we\u2019re in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You didn\u2019t stop at what was visible. You zoomed in. You calculated. You looked for patterns. You probably stayed longer on this than you meant to \u2014 not for fun, but for proof.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n You want to be the person who sees what others missed. That\u2019s not inherently bad. But it does lean into narcissistic traits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t see a triangle.

You want quiet superiority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
