Diagnosed narcissist says you might be a psychopath if you can solve this riddle

A man who claims to have been diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder says your answer to a riddle will reveal if you think like him. 'The Nameless Narcissist', who has built up a following on TikTok with his videos speaking about life with narcissistic personality disorder, shared the question in a new viral clip. The mental condition is characterised by exaggerated feelings of self-importance, an excessive craving for admiration, and reduced levels of empathy. It's closely related to - but distinct from - other more serious psychological disorders, such as psychopathy and sociopathy. In his latest video, the Nameless Narcissist claims to have found a riddle which reflects how someone with one of these conditions might think.
Explaining the riddle, he said: "A woman goes to her mother's funeral and meets a man that she's never met before. The two of them really hit it off, and the woman thinks he might be her soulmate. But once the funeral is over, she realises she never asked for the man's name or phone number, and she has no idea who he is or how to contact him. Everyone she asks says they don't know either.
"She's upset that she is never going to see him again. Then, a week later, she murders her sister. So, the riddle is, why did she kill her sister?". The woman killed her sister because if the man attended her mother's funeral, there's a chance that he would show up to her sister's funeral too, the TikToker said. Therefore, she caused the death of another family member to try and repeat the circumstances that led to her first meeting with the man, something which only a person with little empathy and a self-centred view of the world would do.
