I've heard the word a few times but wow I've just looked up the definition and this describes my ex perfectly word for word.
"A person with antisocial personality disorder. Probably the most widely recognized personality disorder. A sociopath is often well liked because of their charm and high charisma, but they do not usually care about other people. They think mainly of themselves and often blame others for the things that they do. They have a complete disregard for rules and lie constantly. They seldom feel guilt or learn from punishments. Though some sociopaths have become murders, most reveal their sociopathy through less deadly and sensational means."
What causes these traits? Is it the way they learn from others or is it just the way they are?
