Is Your Boyfriend a Sociopath? | Comments

So, I've had a suspicion that my boyfriend is a sociopath, and have been doing research to figure out the traits that ACTUALLY make a sociopath. I do think this quiz was right, for the most part, but it was hard to answer the questions correctly because he contradicts himself so much. For example (this wasn't a question, but rather one of many ways he contradicts himself), he takes 90% of my paychecks and then if I get upset about it he yells at me saying he's my "caregiver" and he does so much for me, but if he needs help it's a big deal. Now, in the last 3 months I have easily given him over a grand (at LEAST that if not more) and all I have asked of him was to help me get to or from work a few times. He gets mad over little things and tells me to pack my things and get out, then an hour later it's like nothing ever happened; it's right back to "I love you don't leave me." Our old roommate commented on his behavior towards me on several occasions and my boyfriend would act like he didn't hear him or would pull the "caregiver" card. There have also been times that I've gotten angry at him and by the time it's all said and done I'm the one that feels guilty for expressing my emotions. I don't think this is normal, but I don't know how to go about leaving. Sorry for ranting, but if anyone has a solution, I would love to hear it.

Yes he was. Well, was my boyfriend, definitely a sociopath and an addict! Almost everything that came out of his mouth was a lie. Stole from his Mom and Dad, has a history of abusing women, myself included. Doesn't DO apologies, blames others for his own mistakes, creates intricate webs of lies that he defends as if they were the truth, parasitic lifestyle of living off others, etc. Burns bridges behind him, moves on to new life with new details! Should've seen this earlier!!!!

My boyfriend/ex (he talks to me like I'm his girl even if I am breaking up with him so even if we are not together it still feels like we're together since he is always talking to me like I am his). I am trying to move on but I feel like he wont let me, and if I move on it feels like he really will make me pay for it. He has already talked a lot of bad stuff about me to common friends and different people. He is the one who gets jealous of me when I am with friends and go to the gym and when things are going well for me. He has been discussing how I am prioritating my time a thousends of times and for hours. We have had discussions for 2-3 hours a day. This person tells people that things are so difficult between us. I can't believe that he is saying this when he is the one who is making things difficult with his jealousy and controlling behaviour. The same person talking lies about me claims to truly love me. I can't make talking lies about me and at the same time claiming to love me to fit together. It doesn't make sence to me.

84% 'Definitely a sociopath!' - I already knew this but with all his gaslighting and manipulation I can't help but not trust my own thoughts. What an absolute nightmare this has been, and it's only been 6 months. He had just gotten out of jail when we started dating (I knew him from the past) and I have done absolutely everything to get him back on his feet and tried to love him more than he has ever been loved before. I saw MANY red flags from the very beginning- but I remained patient, kind and understanding. That was my biggest mistake because it only got worse, no matter how hard I tried. I've never experienced such a total lack of empathy for the suffering caused BY HIM, but somehow it is always my fault. I literally have found inappropriate conversations that are sexual in nature with multiple women in his phone and he still tells me that it's not what it looks like and has an excuse for everything. If I can't talk to him at any moment of the day, or an with a friend and unable to give my full attention he claims I don't care. I am naturally a very sweet person, who loves deeply and honestly and yet he says I'm the worst gf he has ever had. He makes me video call for hours even though he doesn't talk to me but instead will be working out or clipping his toenails for example or hanging out with other people and if I hang up it gets worse for me. He threatens suicide almost everyday, or says he'll smash his head in with rocks if I tell him I don't want to talk because he is so angry and calls me names. He watches me cry with absolutely no expression on his face, or he tried but cannot hide his smirk/smile. He enjoys when I'm hurt, sad or scared because it makes him feel powerful. If I try and break up he claims to love me so much and all he wants is us - but as soon as I talk to him again he is bitter resentful and nasty. He is a monster. And I am afraid of him.

My husband was awesome in the beginning an that was 8 years ago. But now he blames me for his wrongs but when I call him out on his mess he gets quiet and apologies and lovey dovey but then a hour later he is back to fussing and and being non shaliant like...he can be very sweet at times but it's very short lived! I find myself not even wanting him to touch me at all...it makes me feel sick most of the time when he touch me but I don't have understand why I won't let him go

Definitely correct. c: my ex, i think has strong socipathic traits. glad i broke up with him. I'll never look back.

"There comes a time when you realize there's no point in searching for answers; the only thing is to move on."

Took the test as if I was my ex.

Was fair. I answered how I thought she felt about me on most questions but I answered as myself on 2 of the questions.
