10 Important Signs To Identify A Psychopath

People generally assume that they can identify a psychopath by simply seeing their ugly, angry demeanour. However, they are experts at hiding their real selves. When you meet them, they will treat you really nice and be really great. You won’t be able to figure out their true nature unless you know what you should be looking for. You might end up falling for their fake mask and realise things when it’s too late.

Following are the ten characteristics you should know when trying to identify a psychopath.

1.The Victim Card

Mostly, when someone pretends to be the victim in a situation, they turn out to be psychopaths. They are experts at making people fall for them and thus pretend to be nice and loving as well as weak and vulnerable. They know how to misguide you. So be careful.

2.Not Empathetic

They will pretend to be empathetic but are not in reality. They will never be able to understand your pain and sadness. Even when they try to console you, it would be pretentious and superficial.

3.Really Moody

Some people have mood swings which can arise due to lot of reasons. However, those who are constantly moody might be psychopaths. They can switch from peaceful to really angry in minutes. It’s worse when they don’t really feel genuine emotions inside.

4.They Copy Personalities

Riddled with insecurities, conflicts and doubts, they face these issues by being someone they are not. They imitate others who have a healthy character, mostly someone close to them. This act convinces others that they are nice people.

5.No Accountability

Psychopaths will never admit their mistakes or rectify them. They believe that they right, at all times. They feel that people will look down upon them if their flaws get revealed.

6.Dumping Their Problems On Others

Psychopaths deal with their insecurities by shifting the issue onto others. This is how they try to protect themselves. Whatever negativity they have within, they shift the blame of that on others.

7.Psychopaths Won’t Disclose Their Past

They will hardly spill any details about their past or their life for that matter. They won’t talk about their families, home, friends or anything that shows their history before they met you. They know that if they do so, their truth will be revealed. So watch out if your partner hides these things from you.

8.Pathological Liars

Psychopaths tend to lie all the time, even when there’s no reason to. They always have a convincing story to make you believe their lies. So check thoroughly before believing them.

9.Psychopaths May Leave If You Aren’t Important Anymore

They have no attachment to you or the relationship and so once your importance in their life is gone, they can end things as if nothing ever happened. They will make you feel bad about yourself in the process.

10.Psychopaths Are Controlling

They are very dominating, cruel and don’t feel sorry for you at all. They will manipulate you for their own gains.

Keep your eyes and ears open and stay safe from these people.
