I may start posting about that in the ASPD forum with the caveat that these are psychopathic traits and not sociopathic traits. I don't know where to address those. I agree with your assessment of narcs. My father and I are the same temperament . I have a lot of compassion for him. I know why he is the way he is. My father is the only one I feel safe talking about because ironically enough he doesn't care what others say about him. The rest do. There are certain things I really like about my father.

Ironically I'm also quite compassionate towards my father, albeit it's still a bit selfish on my part, I talk to him because I don't have to worry about offending him with my narcissistic tendencies that I still have. But still, he's a good conversationalist and I enjoy our talks.
My ex is likely a psychopath or at least had very strong psychopathic traits.
