Holy Crap! He may be mentally ill!
We were learning about personality disorders in psychology today, and my prof described *someone I know* PERFECTLY!
(I don't have a link to my textbook, so I just used the link at the mayo clinic.)

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
"Signs and symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder may include:
* Grandiose sense of one's own abilities or achievements
* Fantasies about having exceptional power, attractiveness or success
* Sense of belonging to an exclusive group of people who truly understand each other
* Need for constant praise
* Expectations of special treatment
* Exploitation of other people
* Lack of empathy for other people
* Envy of other people or a belief that you are the subject of other people's envy
* Haughty or arrogant behaviors"
Sound like anyone we know? :)
