Sociopath Community

by James Adams

I revealed who i was to my girlfriend last night

Why? What were you hoping to benefit from it?

I'm assuming, of course, that you revealed to her you're a sociopath.

Since sociopathy itself can't actually be diagnosed, I take it you were diagnosed with AsPD at some point in time?

i agree women hate challenges

for example i challenged my ex girl friend to eat several mintos and drink a lot of diet coke on top of it

i said it was a challenge but she never went for it

I had a similar reaction when someone  told me he was a sadist. NOT a big turn on. I am the overt domineering one.

I cared for him so I tried it. Apparently I had a look of disgust on my face too. 

He challenged me and not for his love. Just for his kindness.

With me, and I am fairly sure, way back then I was ASPD as I fit the criterias rather well, love is just not an emotion that is felt with ease

 Have you ever heard of pseudo-psychopathic schizophrenia? I first encountered it in Cleckley. There's not a lot of info out there about it, but it's an interesting concept.

I don't want to force anyone into caring for me. They either do or don't. I have a healthy self-love and I think I am a good partner for the most part. Which is not to say I am easy to date.

I AM crazy. :)

Hey, some girls like it. No joke, I've met four girls who actually SEEK OUT sociopaths. Different reasons between all four of them, but that hardly matters. I would say give it time, I have seen plenty of relationships where something crazy was revealed, and the person who is affected forgives. Then a bit of time passes and it really really sinks in. After that the affected party actually exits.

I only say that because I think it's too early to ask this question just yet.

I revealed who i was to my girlfriend last night and her response surprised me.

my question, is this response human nature, or have i found a special love where others would be disgusted?

 Why did you tell her? How old are you and how long have you two been together? Your love isn't "special", she most likely doesn't see a good enough reason to break it off yet, including your proclamations. What have you done to disgust her enough to warrant her breaking up with you

 yes, by a physiologist professor 

 Tell me more about that. How did he diagnose you? Did you spend a lot of time conversing and meeting with him frequently? What is your relationship with this person

by James Adams

it's funny, i was ready for her to  leave me,

   Why were you ready for her to leave you? Do you mean that in the sense of you were ready for it to end, or that you were expecting her to leave you soon?

that's why i told her, curiosity.

i wanted to know how a normal person would react but now, ive decided to stay with her even though im not worth her. 

Lol, i'm calling bullshit. How about giving us a real reason rather than this petty cop out? "I was curious"

this is going to be an adventure, the adventure to find love.

So you haven't already found it then? What are you expecting to change?

Do you think you're going to grow into loving her or something simply because she made the decision to stay with you?

You sound lost and completely clueless on what you're doing and what you want.

Make sure to look past his use of language, that strangely seems to trick some people into looking past the flaws or assuming what he said must mean more than it does. It's not really "deep", it's just made to appear that way.

In a nutshell the guy said that, in a relationship, people use each other, and if she's sticking around she must still have some sort of use for you. The rest of it's just elaboration about a perspective that, in simpler words, seems less profound:

1) He assumes she only likes you because of the imaginary image she's painted of who you are. There's a variety of reasons why she might be sticking around, and how "imaginary" they are we don't know from your words.
2) He elaborates by assuming the crying was because of a clash of what she once thought and what she's stuck facing. While likely the case, it could be because of more than one set of thoughts crossing her mind.
3) He calls what she's doing "settling", which without knowing her is sort of him dissing you. It paints a picture that makes you seem less awesome (or carrying potentially less misunderstandings about yourself) than you might be.
4) He then goes on to call her strong without any proof beyond his own impression.

"You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book." 

When manic, bipolar's seem to have traits of narcissism or sociopathy.  That is when we are feeling grandiose. We become really self-absorbed. That is why therapy is important for bipolar or schizophrenic's.
