by anastaciaThis is exactly what sociopaths do. It's may not be true love they express but they know what the receiving party wants. That's why they're effective.
I'm fully aware of that. It's easy to fake being romantic, using romance as a manipulative tool. But Daddy was claiming to actually be romantic. If he is romantic, then he's not faking it for manipulative purposes.
Sociopaths are not romantic for the sake of love or emotional connection.
