Sociopath Community

Sometimes being forced to give clear concise answers makes us see the gaps in our understanding.

You're dumb and dramatic. Start being "yourself" if it annoys you so much. When I feel like being myself, even if self is an asshole to others, I am that way. You can deal with the negative backlash that I am sure will come with being an asshole, or you can continue to make things pleasant for others, which ends up being pleasant for yourself.

If you don't care about formalities, start being a dickhole. I don't have your issue with pretending because in pretending I am having fun, and in being "myself" I have fun. So much drama for something not that serious :(

 This is a good post. Be yourself. I'm so tired about the mask shit that gets thrown around.

You'd be amazed with how much you can get away with in social interactions. With how difficult to deal with you can be for others, without them doing much apart from learning to accept you for who you are. The nice things you'll do or say to them them will be even more appreciated. Be more demanding, and people will even jump through hoops to please you.

Family will usually be there for you and accept you, no matter what. Friends, you should keep around those who can deal with you in the first place. Being genuine is always better than being fake, in your group. Superiors/Bosses? Well, with them things can get a bit tricky. If you're valuable enough to them, they'll put up with a lot of your shit too, believe me, I know. Just be really good at what you do, find the thing you're talented at and the power will tilt in your favor before you know it.

If you go around walking on eggshells to not hurt people and let them see how much of a "baddie" you are (you're probably not from what I read), a lot of your frustration at others comes from feeling socially oppressed by them in the first place. Being forced to be someone you're not is like having your identity taken away from you. Letting that happen makes you a doormat. Train/Shape your social environment after you, don't let it shape/train you. You have more to win this way, in the long run.

 Really good post Edvard. More often than is preferred a social mask is almost required, but that seems to be more a bit of a slight shift based on situation or circumstances as opposed to whatever the OP is going on about. 

YES

Works so well. I find that people tend to lower their inhibitions around me. They know I won't be offended, so they feel at ease. I like that. 

I love that you mention the shock followed by the laughter. Memories...lol.

Good point. It appears that if OP were not a path, they might gravitate towards ASPD in attempt to numb their frustrations. This personality represents the greatest heartlessness. Everything in life is true as long as we believe. You can't tell a person otherwise if they have doubts.Imagination is indeed very powerful.

This is just a defense mechanism. An attractive buffer to glaring flaws or displeasure. Eventually, we might see the person get attention, covert actions to seek help or attention.
