WOW i know of a few psycopaths (mimic the same behavior)im sure some of you know of some too....
superficial charm, self-important, deceptive behavior & lying, manipulative, little remorse or guilt, shallow emotional response, pretneds to have empathy, early behavioral problems, blaming others for their actions....They can have jobs, get married and they can break the law like anyone else. But their jobs and marriages usually donβt last and their life is usually on the verge of personal chaos due to covering their own lies. A psychopath is usually a subtle manipulator. They do this by playing to the emotions of others. There is always a shallow quality to the emotional aspect of their stories. In particular they have difficulty describing how they felt, why they felt that way, or how others may feel and why. In many cases you almost have to explain it to them. Close friends and parents will often end up explaining to the psychopath how they feel and how others feel who have been hurt by him or her. They desperately avoid incarceration and loss of freedom but continue to act as if they can get away with breaking the rules. They don't learn from these consequences. They seem to react with feelings and regret when they are caught. But their regret is not so much for other people as it is for the consequences that their behavior has had on them, their freedom, their resources and their so called "friends." They can be very sad for their self. The definition of their "friends" are people who support the psychopath and protect them from the consequence of their own antisocial behavior. Shallow friendships, low emotional intelligence, using people, and merely thinks about ways to not get caught.
there's a book thats called the sociopath next door. and basically says every 1 in 5 people is a sociopath and never shows regret. so check amongst your friends and if you don't find one, its you.
haha so true! isnt that insane? i think my old boss is one. i was showing this to my boss and she agrees...he seriously has all but one or 2 of the characteristics.
i'm definitely a psychopath. *shrug*
