Retribution is the weakest point that a narcissist hides from the world, maybe something like his looks, the tragedy he never wants to disclose, fear of being average or not intelligent enough.
Expose the weakest point publicly in a manner that just shows sympathy with him. You should speak about his miseries at parties in his presence, just to show that how miserable he is and in strong need of sympathy. This act will lure his attention and he will definitely try to pay you back. Do not talk in a manner that you are lowering his status, try to cover him with emotional words.
Last Leaf:
As the researchers said, narcissists are not given proper attention and secure love when they are growing. They are not appreciated for just being themselves, only celebrated for what have they achieved. When you cannot get empathy from the people around you, you lose trust, feel ashamed of your normal human frailties.
So, stop trying to fulfill emotional needs from love, instead, try to better yourself. You should try to look accomplished, better, and smarter.
