Would a study driven by psychopaths be considered reliable or valid????

Ahhh... the question is not to trust or not to trust... The question is what is it that I can trust you to do.

You can trust me with anything your heart desires. Whether or not I should be trusted is another matter entirely...

I'm not sure about belly buttons... But, one odd characteristic I do know is that psychopaths have a terrible sense of smell...
Wait..how would you know about Colin, Wade and Matt?

...second thought...don't tell me...

Well..I started this thread because I thought I was attracted to a sociopath...but it turns out I might be the sociopath.

I hate it when that happens.

Ahhh a moment of clarity Baltazar?
Or, perhaps, is there a bit of a psychopath in each of us???

I don't know if I'm a sociopath but I do know that I have some MAJOR issues.

(And I'm not even PMS right now)

but nicely done you must admit, turning the thread full circle from why are women attracted to sociopaths to sociopaths ...hmm would that be a typically sociopathic thing to do?

and i agree with everyone - charm, and the ability to sell themselves to you - or at least the current version - they give you what you need and it fills their ego to have you on a string ....until the string tightens and you realise its not a bow for your hair but a leash he's attaching to you.

I have had one place his hands on my neck and say he could kill me - i to played along and cooly and calmly replied that sure he could - but logistically where we were was not a good place - he agreed...

I had to interact more wiht him because he was married to my sister - and he did for a few more times when the leash was not working on my sister try the fear approach - it was as if he was going through a list ... hmmm charm - tick - ok thats out now
lies galore - too many to keep track of.....
fear - tick - > leading to dependance.....

but ultimately leading to his defeat...so far.......

his family was his posession that was all - his front to the world - of no value other than that.

oops i just tok us back to a seriuos place - sorry

wandered in and there i was back in the mine field lol

P7 flies up into a tree and waits to see if anyone wil follow

hmmm and maybe we are the psychopaths trying out our masks here it this forum .... have you thought of that Myers lol

Very cool post Phoenix. No need to be sorry.

My father is a sociopath - textbook. He really is one and has no remorse (or very little) over the pain he has put myself, my brother and my mother through. In his eyes he has been a hero and we should be grateful that he even gave us a moment of his time. He really feels that way.

Because of him my romantic relationships were always unbalanced. I assumed men would treat me the way he did and became too sensitive to even the smallest indication of being hurt or abandoned. It made me clingly, needy and unable to give of myself like an adult. I am an adult woman now (don't let the name Baltazar fool you...long story.)

So I became very borderline as a result and now have to spend the rest of my life fixing myself. Being a mature, loving, adult is my goal.

And I'm only at the very beginning. My heart bleeds for passion but I am only able to handle safety. But it could be worse.

Nods yep same as my dad and my sisters husband - i told my BIL once that he walked like the world owed him a living lol - it was true and he didnt like it - i think he diodnt like that i had seen behind his mask.

It made me clingly, needy and unable to give of myself like an adult. I am an adult woman now (don't let the name Baltazar fool you...long story.)

I can relate - except instead of being clingy i decided to cut them out before they could cut me out (men that is ) one bad relationship and i decided that i couldnt be trusted to pick the right person (or have thenm pick me) - thats why im still single lol

So I became very borderline as a result and now have to spend the rest of my life fixing myself. Being a mature, loving, adult is my goal.

that would be nice - i wish us both luck wiht that.

And I'm only at the very beginning. My heart bleeds for passion but I am only able to handle safety. But it could be worse.
safety is a good place to start
