When people tell you that you have an extremely intolerant behavior towards social life or you are extremely antisocial, you don’t put a lot of thought in it, do you? However, if it’s actually on the extreme lines, you might have a personality disorder that is known as Sociopath.
It’s a dangerous disorder and if we look back in the history some of the people who were sociopaths were deadly. Such people aren’t only lack the sense of being right or wrong but they are also very manipulative and deceptive. These people tell lies and are socially reticent. Such people have qualities that can be found in a sharp serial killer.
So if you have been told that you have an antisocial attitude, then you might want to check if your behavior resembles these sign or not. If it does then you are definitely a sociopath and that’s not a good news.
1. You Lie Confidently.
It’s not that you only lie when you have to, lying is a tendency. Being dishonest is a day to day behavior and the worst part is that you don’t feel any remorse. Lying is simply amusing to you. You would say anything and do anything to get what you want. Even when someone caught you lying, you show no signs of regret or guilt.
2. Irresponsibility Is Your Pal.
Being irresponsible is okay with a lot of people but with a sociopath, it reaches to a whole new level. A sociopath shows no obligation towards anything. Such people aimlessly shift from one goal to another, put others at risk and absolutely shun societal norms. They never ever accept responsibility for their actions. For them whatever they have done is right and even if they hurt someone, they did it because it was needed.
3. Right, Or Wrong Doesn’t Exist In Your Dictionary.
You simply think that rules are for losers. In your world there is no such thing as right or wrong, it’s always my way or my way. While some people are sane enough to feel the guilt of their wrongdoing, you actually do not feel anything close to guilt even after committing a crime. You are emotional that way.
4. You Love Manipulating People.
If you are a sociopath, you can never be a good friend to anyone simply because friends don’t manipulate friends whereas you enjoy doing it. You use your charm to manipulate others and watch them do things that they would never have done. Even if it’s harmful to others, you would not stop.
5. You Are Sexually A Cheat.
For you, sex is pure sex. You don’t feel a thing about people when you are indulging in sexual acts with them. No affection, no connection, it’s actually all in the moment for you. You are incapable of having a committed relationship or even an affair that involves emotional attachment. You would rather have sex with people and forget about them completely.
These are the major signs of a Sociopath. If you fear that most of these signs match your personality, we suggest you read more about this personality disorder, so that you can get a clearer picture of if you do or do not belong to this category.
A subtle hint: If you don’t care about these signs, you might actually are a sociopath.
