I think that is a different sort of love. Less emotional reaction and more care and respecting each other without the butterflies.

Can a relationship with a psychopath work if you are aware and understanding? I understand trauma bond and maybe that is me. I still adore him. We all have flaws.
I was in love with someone who told me he was a sociopath once. Who knows if he ever truly was. He didn't love me back though and it hurt terribly, it took me years of crying and torment to get over it. He had a certain charm, I miss him, but I didn't want to see him and he dumped me, so it's done.
