More info is needed. Do you hard small animals? Did you do so as a child? Have you had meaningful, nonselfish realtionships?

Maybe. Your description of yourself seems sociopath-like. I don't think there are many sociopaths here, though.

am i a sociopath?

I do some bad stuff-stealing mostly-even from those I love-I tend to feel nothing about it-

most people would say I am a great person and a great friend-I try to be helpful and sweet-

Not sure if I am a sociopath-I can be superficially charming and use people to get what I want-small things-nothing too big-

Am I??
Thoughts?

Well That's not even half the description of a Sociopath so explain yourself more, and there's no true diagnosis anybody here can give, other than agreeing you potentially carry Sociopathic traits.

As others have more or less said: more description would give a clearer picture.  Sociopathy and psychopathy aren't "official" terms in diagnosis, but more of a categorization of a spectrum of traits.  It seems a lot of the psychological (or whatever field related to this) realm has started to incorporate "spectrums" to describe disorders and the like.  Key ingredients that I'm aware of that give diagnostic clues lie within empathy or lack thereof.

I don't personally believe I am a sociopath, per se, and don't think anyone here could be so patently classified.  However, it's not impossible that those with skewed perception as it is can be trusted to give the assessment in the first place.  It's a little like an asylum left to run and monitor itself here.

...I am saying this just to offer you some means to prepare yourself for the backlash and/or erroneous conclusions that you will probably only end up disregarding (which is truly the lesson here) and either find professional opinion or let the matter drop sufficiently as to concern you no longer.  That's what will inevitably happen here.
