Sociopaths tend to break all of the societal norms. These daters break rules and laws because they don't believe that the normal rules apply to them even though they know that they are not exempt from the rules that everyone else must follow.

A Sociopath likes to feel good and as long as they can avoid consequences they will do whatever they need to. This often leads to risky behaviors that include anything that is to the extreme. As long as they can find stimulation, pleasure, and excitement, a sociopath will go and do whatever they need to, to experience these feelings.

Sociopaths are often very friendly and will compliment you beyond belief, unfortunately, the friendliness that they display is almost always so that they can get what they want. Typically a sociopath is an excellent con artist and always has another agenda that you are not aware of. People are all too often shocked to learn that someone they are dating is a sociopath because they often present themselves as being completely put together when in fact they are nothing of the sort. They are masters at pretending that they are someone that they're not with another personality that doesn't actually match what's inside. These are the people who everyone loves because they can be and are so charming all of the time when they're with others.

Sociopaths tend to have very few REAL friends. They don't want friends unless they need them for some reason. Typically any friend that they say that they have is only either an acquaintance or a friend of a friend. These people may seem like they have a great social life, they hang out and do all sorts of things with their friends but when you take a look closer you see there really isn't any one person that is a true friend to them.

These type of sociopaths have a huge ego and think that they do nothing wrong ever! They are not willing to accept responsibility and will almost always blame their failures on someone else. These types of people tend to act as though they are entitled to everything in the world and they don't want to work to get it.

Sociopaths are deceitful and lie at all times to get their way and to get what they want. These people like to lie, just to lie. They often get great pleasure from trying to trick people no matter what the consequences. They also will tell lies to see what sort of reactions they get from people.

Sociopaths do not have empathy for others. These people don't tend to have the awareness of other peoples feelings and emotions and therefore do not understand others and can not sense their feelings and perspectives. Sociopaths do no take an active interest in other peoples concerns because they don't know how to show sensitivity.

Sociopaths lack remorse or shame. These people do not feel bad for any of their actions and that is why they do not take responsibility for them. You won't catch a sociopath saying that they are sorry for something that they have done or said. Most often they will ignore the incident as if it never happened.

Normal people are pretty shaken up when they have just had something traumatic happen to them, but a sociopath does not have these feelings, they tend to remain eerily calm. Sociopaths also do not tend to show fear in any dangerous situations.

Sociopaths act in the spur of the moment and do not think or worry about the consequences. They often bounce from goal to goal often without finishing the first one. Sociopaths can be irresponsible when it comes to their finances and often let others down when they don't follow through with obligations that they make.

As stated before, sociopaths easily put on a different personality when they need too. They are either warm, friendly and inviting or they are cold, uncaring, and distant and it could depend on anything that has happened to them during the day.

Usually, a sociopath believes that they are smarter than everyone else and because of this they believe that they are above the rest of the world. If you listen to stories that they tell you'll quickly see that they are always making themselves sound better (even if only slightly) than anyone else in the story. They are always trying to "one-up" themselves.

Sociopaths don't want to be called out by anyone on anything. They want to always get their own way and when they don't the cost is usually quite significant. They will react with bad behaviors, they'll argue with you and they will deny anything that is happening that makes them look wrong or stupid in any way.

A sociopath will strive to make you feel bad for them no matter how they do it. In a 'normal' relationship your partner is the one who is going to stand by you and have your back. They are the one person who is supposed to support you through thick and thin. Unfortunately, a sociopath likes to bring up the past looking for your pity to keep you sidetracked so that they don't have to deal with any real issues.

A sociopath will come on strong, shower you with affection and want to spend every waking minute with you because they because they want you all to themselves. They want to make sure that you don't have any time to see anyone else. In doing this they have you exclusively to themselves and therefore you are available whenever it suits them best. A sociopath is jealous of the relationships you have with other people in your life so they try to sabotage them so that you again are more available to spend all of your time with them. Sociopaths feel threatened by other people in your life, often because they believe that these people may tell you that you should not be in a relationship with him or her. If you're dating a sociopath you will quickly see that within a short time period you are not spending time with people that you once did before your relationship started.

A sociopath is very immature. This is due to the fact that sociopaths are incapable of learning from past mistakes and therefore continue to repeat them over and over again. A sociopath is much like a teenager in many ways. They are quite selfish and very demanding. They don't know how to put other people's needs before themselves, in fact, they don't know how to even care about what other people may need. These people are always wondering what they will get out of every situation that they are in and if there's no benefit to them then they couldn't care about it at all.

Dating today is going to be work, it always has been in the past, but dating a sociopath is more than just work. It is draining and beyond toxic for you both mentally and physically. It's absolutely okay for you to spot the signs and make the break in the name of your own well being so that you can find the one for you who isn't going to bring you down and make you question your own self-worth every step of the way. If your significant other has more than 2 of these signs it's time for you to make the break and get the heck out of your relationship to save yourself from endless heartache. There's nothing healthy about the relationship and the sooner you end it the better off you'll be. It's time for you to take stock of what you have and look out for you and that is completely acceptable, you are your own best ally.

So take some time and re-evaluate what it is that is important to you in your life. When it comes to choosing someone to spend the rest of your life with you don't want to or need to settle for second (or third) best. Choose someone who is going to give you what you want and need from a partner. Find someone who is going to make your life better and add to it rather than someone who is going to sabotage your relationship every step of the way. Don't be afraid to go on a lot of dates and meet a lot of singles before you find "the one". It 's better that you take your time then settle with someone who you think that you might be able to change because it is quite unlikely that you will be able to do that. Worse yet, if they are a sociopath, there's no way that you are going to be able to change them into not being a sociopath.
