Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy, a disregard for the law, and a tendency to manipulate and exploit others. People with psychopathy are often referred to as "psychopaths." While it is not uncommon for psychopaths to form relationships, the way they choose their partners can be very different from those without the disorder.

The Psychopath's Attraction to Certain Traits

Psychopaths are drawn to certain traits in potential partners, such as charm, confidence, and a lack of empathy or guilt. They may also be attracted to people who are naive and easily manipulated. They often prey on people who are emotionally vulnerable or have low self-esteem.

Manipulation and Control

Psychopaths are often adept at manipulating and controlling their partners. They may use guilt-tripping, gaslighting, or other tactics to keep their partners in line. They may also try to isolate their partners from their friends and family, making them more dependent on the psychopath.

Inability to Commit

Psychopaths often have difficulty committing to relationships, and may move on quickly when their partners no longer fulfill their needs. They may also have a tendency to be unfaithful, as they are not usually looking for a long-term partnership.

The Bottom Line

Psychopaths often choose their partners based on certain traits and use manipulation and control to maintain the relationship. However, they often have difficulty committing to relationships and may move on quickly when they no longer fulfill their needs.

Psychopaths often choose partners who are vulnerable and easily manipulated. They may seek out people who are naive, trusting, and eager to please. They can be very charming and come across as caring, understanding, and attentive. However, their true motives are often selfish and manipulative. Over time, the psychopathic partner may become increasingly controlling, demanding, and abusive. It is important to recognize the signs of an unhealthy relationship and take steps to protect yourself.

Psychopaths often seek out partners who are vulnerable, easy to manipulate, and don't challenge them. They may look for people who are naive, desperate for love, and willing to overlook any red flags. They often target people who have a low self-esteem and are easily intimidated. They also look for those who will accept them for who they are, no matter how cruel or abusive they may be. Psychopaths may also seek out partners who are willing to provide for them financially or do their bidding. Ultimately, psychopaths are looking for someone who they can control and manipulate with ease.
