I am loyal to other becomes disloyal or otherwise betrays me. At which point...anything goes.

by ReaperI'm not loyal to anyone. I see no reason to be.
What about people who are loyal to you? Why don't you see reason in being loyal in return?
Because I only care about myself. I'll let them think I'm loyal to them as long as they're useful to me, but I'll throw them under the bus the moment I need to if it means saving my own ass.
by Luna Preyi don't believe in marriage.
But what's the alternative? Marriage gives you the opportunity to raise a family. And a family provides the security and comfort of a 'home'. It is still seen as an indication of success. The reputation of one who is 35 and married, with a good job and respectful kids is much better than that of someone who is 35 and unmarried. I think one's position in society offers numerous opportunities and comforts. At some point, doesn't everyone desire stability, in some aspect of their life?

You'll 'let them think' as in, you will mislead them to think you are loyal when you are not? Would you swear on your loyalty, if you were disloyal?

What counts as a betrayal? A small lie? Cheating? Saying something that pisses you off? Acting disrespectful? What if that behavior changes, can someone ever regain your loyalty?

A rarity for the NPD and BPD as the false constructs get in the way of their Shizz.
Reaper makes sense, a bit harsh on the utility aspect from my perspective, but otherwise not that different.
I've got BPD tendencies. I've boughten into my own justifications and rationalizations. It's taken somebody else calling my out on my crap to notice the discrepancies between my words/ideas and actions. I do believe people can change if they have interest in bettering themselves. I think for a neurotypical to get over their emotion insecurities, own their short comings, forget their justifications and change their behavior is a respectable feat.

Do you also act as Reaper then? Giving the illusion of loyalty? Or do you really have the ability to be loyal, as in faithful to those loyal to you? Would there ever be a good reason, what's in it for you?
