Banks, stores, corporations and the government are fair game but not people. <br /><br />The reason has nothing to do with morality. The rationale is that if you con a Money Mart out of $1,000 it's little more than a number in an accountant's column. If you con $1,000 from a person you just took their rent. The person will fight hard and nasty for that $1,000 because if they don't they could end up homeless. <br /><br />The other rationale is that if you get away with stealing from a person you won't get much. Get caught and you've made an enemy for life. The risk is not worth the reward.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-35346151828907698732014-07-26T18:01:31.805-07:002014-07-26T18:01:31.805-07:00Anon,

Even if you sat there making excuses for your behavior, wouldn't you still feel guilty deep down? If she is a socio, she doesn't feel guilty about her actions. If you feel guilty about doing immoral things, you're not a socio. You say you feel scared that you might be the same way. A socio would either not care, or find it interesting in an intellectual way. You're most likely alright.Devnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-46255117371570096952014-07-25T18:08:21.709-07:002014-07-25T18:08:21.709-07:00I liked it XD cleverI liked it XD cleverTiinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-69571079685082246562014-07-25T15:42:54.468-07:002014-07-25T15:42:54.468-07:00Really when I read this I feel like all you people...Really when I read this I feel like all you people sound so full of shiiit.

If you ask me to adopt mainstream society’s morals, I feel like an evil demon having holy water chucked at it. I didn’t make these rules yet I’m expected to adhere to them. The way empathy is processed in someone with bpd is different. I’ve come across numerous people with a bpd diagnosis that are little empathy compromised in their interpersonal relationships, but will have deep empathy for issues on a larger scale such as social issues related to homelessness, abused children, mental illness, the handicapped, etc etc. There’s a story I like to tell that gives a concrete example of what it is that I’m usually talking about in regards to empathy and bpd. There was a man with bpd who up and left his family (wife and kids) one day for another woman. He showed very little empathy towards them as they suffered terribly, and yet he had deep empathy for animals, and one day while at petsmart felt such deep empathy for the gold fish that he purchased every single one of them, and then released them in to a river. In regards to what you had to say about the wallet, a moral or ethic based on emotion can be inconsistent, and is soley based on a biased perception rather than the objective truth. You operate within a framework that tells you you should experience feelings of guilt if you don’t return the wallet unless they were an asshole, then it is perfectly justifiable to not return it. The cognitive justification ameliorated any psychological discomfort you may have experienced by not returning the wallet. This however did not change the actual experience, only your perception of events changed. Regardless of how you feel, if the wallet is not returned the person will experience frustration, anger, pain, and whatever other emotions may go along with losing money, credit cards, ID, etc. Dr. Gingernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-54781572298540707562014-07-22T19:29:46.071-07:002014-07-22T19:29:46.071-07:00^ agreed.

The sociopath mother is also caring in the grand scheme of things because she's not indulging in self - destructive behaviours that's causing her /or the rest of the family more harm. A toughy I'm sure for any mother in that predicament.

It's like the store was an obstacle course and people were the obstacles.<br /><br />The decision to get married was a practical one, not necessarily a romantic one. I was getting ready to move to another state, and I was pretty sure she wouldn't come with if I didn't offer some kind of commitment. We get along really well. She shares some of my cynicism, and outpaces me on misanthropy. It doesn't hurt that she is stunningly beautiful to the point that strangers or old ladies often ask if she is a celebrity or a model. The sex was good. Anyway, I didn't want to break up with her so it was the next step. There weren't any romantic declarations of love beyond what was necessary, neither of us really go for that. So like I said, more of a practical decision than anything. Let me just say that I have discovered that when people ask to know how you got engaged, "I didn't want to stop boning her" isn't exactly what they want to hear.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14837238029620913050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-53125476509100052802014-07-22T17:58:09.871-07:002014-07-22T17:58:09.871-07:00Oh, this one I find particularly relaxing (my pare...Oh, this one I find particularly relaxing (my parents hate it).<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCRI4ADJlVU<br /><br />Except for that last one I tried to stay clear of Bob Marley, since I figured his popular enough that people might know his good ones.Tiinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-72532251490263262132014-07-22T17:21:47.312-07:002014-07-22T17:21:47.312-07:00"No, youuu"...?

But, I have to agree, an older woman who is single or in a bad marriage would be easier. Whether or not she want it the frustration would make her more vulnerable. And teasing would make it easier (I suspect the person might even start to be the one making making adcances). But, I feel like being someone with problems might make you into any other client, while someone who first seems to be a sociopath at first and turned out to be just someone who's hiding might be more interesting and mysterious. A regular person with problems I feel would just be another broken record she has to fix.<br /><br />Anon, no, I'm to lazy to manipulaye my close friends, plus their is nothing for me to work for. My friends no me for who I am and it doesn't bother them. Since I generally try to be nice they are cool with it. Though they do comment that some of my thoughts or remarks are dickish. So, I'm like that nice asshole (if it makes sense). As for other people sometimes, to a small extentbut not more then anyone else.

In a criminal setting, the Psychopathy Checklist- Revised would be used. Some of the general personality inventories like the Minnesota Multi-Phasic Personality Inventory have sub-scales for psychopathy, but the MMPI is criticized for doing a poor job at detecting psychopathy/sociopathy. If you're using sociopath as a synonym for Anti-Social Personality Disorder, there is the DSM criteria. Some researchers believe that tests for Machiavellianism are indicative of sociopathy in non-criminal populations.
