We should be able to tell the truth about anyone all the time. Narcissist think of criticism as a stab of death, they don't understand that because we love God so much we refuse to put anyone on the level of "perfect", only God gets that title.
When we cannot see things in truth, even making up our own truth to "feel" good, we have denied the truth.
Narcissists only like truth when it elevates them or makes them feel good. Unfortunately much of life is correction, confession and a change of heart, but only if we want truth.
Those who do not want truth, only good feelings and an elevated position will never grow spiritually or emotionally. Narcissists are on a six year old level, lacking maturity even fighting against truth to maintain their fantasies. The "positive affirmation" lies have caused an entire culture to think "if you can't say anything good, don't say anything at all", to intimidate people into lying to keep their place in the family or community. It is not Biblical to want to only see everything based on happiness or our favored fantasies.
2 John 4
"4 I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the TRUTH, just as we were commanded by the Father."
