He does this **** whenever he is wrong.

He is already pretending that he doesn't remember any of this. Narcissist amnesia. It's a real thing:

Does this sound familiar:




Narcissist amnesia (sometimes called narcissistic amnesia) is an informal psychology term, not a clinical diagnosis. It describes a pattern of selective forgetting often seen in people with strong narcissistic traits.In simple terms:

They remember what flatters them and “forget” what threatens them.

What it looks like in practicePeople using this pattern may:

• Forget promises they made
• Deny things they clearly said or did
• Rewrite past events to make themselves look right or superior
• Act genuinely confused when confronted with evidence
• Remember details that praise them with perfect clarity

This isn’t random forgetfulness—it’s ego-protective memory. Why it happens Narcissistic personalities rely heavily on maintaining a stable self-image of being:

• Right
• Superior
• Admired
• Blameless

When a memory threatens that image (e.g., being wrong, cruel, inconsistent, or rejected), the mind may:

• Minimize it
• Distort it
• Rationalize it
• Or erase it altogether
