8 blocks to seeing what’s wrong with the sociopath

When we realize we've been involved with a sociopath, it means we've started to uncover the truth about this person — usually the hard way. So why can't we see ...what's wrong with the sociopath right away?

One Lovefraud reader said she could smell the smoke but could never find the fire. She sensed that something was terribly wrong, but could never figure out what it was.

Multiple Lovefraud readers said they knew something was off, but couldn't put their finger on it.

Tonight, I’ll reveal 8 blocks that prevent us from seeing what’s wrong with the sociopath.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

Getting over that amazing chemistry

Sooner or later, those of us who are, or were, romantically involved ...

Sooner or later, those of us who are, or were, romantically involved with sociopaths recognize that the relationship is bad and must end. Although we know this intellectually, we may ...still feel incredible attraction, even love, for the person.

Tonight, I’ll explain how to break the emotional attachment and get over that amazing 'chemistry' with the sociopath.

Many, many readers have told Lovefraud that getting over relationships with sociopaths, narcissists, etc., is much more difficult than getting over regular relationships. The reasons for this are complicated and are rooted in both normal human psychology and the sociopath's pathology.

The first thing to understand is that sociopaths engage in seduction. This is significantly different from a normal dating relationship.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

Be judgmental when you choose a romantic partner

Society is always telling us not to be judgmental. We should let ...

Society is always telling us not to be judgmental. We should let people express themselves and accept them for who they are. This is fine with people we encounter in ...stores, at work or in the community. It is not fine in dating.
You may pride yourself on being open minded and nonjudgmental, and yes, these are admirable qualities. But when you’re looking for love, it’s different. Tonight, I’ll explain 10 judgments you should make about any potential partner.

You especially need your judgment to avoid the 12% of the population who are sociopaths. These people make terrible partners. They do not have the ability to authentically love, but they are really good at faking it. That’s why it’s so important to look carefully any potential suitor, especially if the person is rushing the relationship or you’re feeling doubts.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

How to know if your caring partner is faking it

According to normal rules of social interaction, people who care about ...

According to normal rules of social interaction, people who care about you will help you. But is the reverse also true? If someone helps you, does it mean this person ...truly cares about you? Not if he or she is a sociopath.

Tonight, I’ll share 9 questions that will help you discern if your caring, helpful partner is faking it.

She makes you drinks and home-cooked meals. He cuts your lawn and fixes your car. Your new romantic interest just can't seem to do enough for you. You never felt so cared for. It must be love!

Maybe it is. Or maybe it's a sociopath who is trying to soften you up for later exploitation.

I've often written on Lovefraud that sociopaths do not have the ability to be caregivers. Many readers find this confusing — the sociopath they know was always doing things for them.

The core of sociopathic personality disorders is an inability to authentically love. What, exactly does this mean?

Here's what you need to know: When sociopaths care for you, they always have an ulterior motive.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

11 brazen lies from my sociopathic ex

All sociopaths lie. They tell big lies, little lies, stupid lies. But what’s really shocking is the brazen lies — lies so big and dramatic that you would never suspect ...anyone would have the nerve to make such statements if they weren’t true. Ha!

Tonight, I’ll tell you about 11 brazen lies from my sociopathic ex-husband. These are just a few of his more memorable deceptions. There were many, many more.

I met Montgomery online back in 1996. This was when online dating was in its infancy. Everyone was using “Love at AOL,” where you could post text but no photos or video. Montgomery described himself as a “Sean Connery look-alike,” which was his first lie.

The lies kept coming. But this was two years before Google launched, so there was no real way to check out his story. Unfortunately, it wasn't until later that I learned they were lies. So here are 11 brazen lies from my sociopathic ex

7 brutal ways sociopaths make demands

Sociopaths view you, and all other people, as objects to be used. They want something, and they believe that your purpose in life is to deliver it. But how, exactly, ...do they get you to do what they want?

Tonight, I’ll explain 7 brutal ways that sociopaths make demands so that you end up doing what they want.

In the beginning of your involvement, sociopaths typically sweet talk you into going along with what they want. They work to convince you that it’s a really, really good idea, or it will be really, really fun, or they really, really need it. Then, when you agree, they can’t stop thanking you.

But once sociopaths feel that you are sufficiently under their control, that all stops. The niceties go away and they simply expect you to meet their demands. Here are 7 typical strategies.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

5 warning signs that your online love is a scammer

More than 350 million people used dating apps worldwide in 2024, ...

More than 350 million people used dating apps worldwide in 2024, according to a recent industry report. What the report didn’t say is that many people who are supposedly searching ...for love online are actually searching for targets to exploit.

Tonight, I’ll explain 5 warning signs that your online love is a scammer. If you see these warning signs, cut off contact with the person immediately.

Tinder is the most popular dating app on the planet, accounting for 35% of global downloads. The second most popular app is Bumble.

Yes, it is possible to find love online. An industry report says that 12% of people currently in a romantic relationship met online.

It’s wonderful to hear the words, “I love you.” But if the words are coming from someone you recently met online, maybe what they really mean is, “I’d love to exploit you.”

The FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) collects data on all types of online crime. According to its most recent report, 859,532 internet crime complaints were filed in 2024. This were actually fewer claims filed than in 2023, but the dollar losses were much higher.
Victims reported a staggering $16.6 billion in financial losses in 2024. The bulk of the losses came from fraud.

The report covers all Inernet crime, such as identity theft and ransomware. One big category was confidence and romance scams, with 17,910 complaints. These are situations in which people believe they are in a relationship — family, friendly or romantic — and are tricked into sending money, personal and financial information, or valuable items to the perpetrator. Victims reported losses in these cons totaling more than $672 million.

Could this happen to you? Yes, if you’re not careful. Here are five warning signs that your online love is a scammer.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.

7 classic love bombing strategies

Almost everyone who is targeted by a sociopath in a romantic ...

Almost everyone who is targeted by a sociopath in a romantic relationship experiences love bombing —over-the-top attention and affection. You need to know how to spot it.

Tonight, I’ll explain the ...warning signs that your exciting new romantic partner is love bombing you. I’ll also identify 7 classic love-bombing strategies.

So is it love — or is it love bombing?

I discuss this in my book, Red Flags of Love Fraud — 10 signs you’re dating a sociopath. Red Flag #4 is love bombing.

When sociopaths in full seduction mode, they want to be with you all the time. If they're not physically with you, they want to be in constant communication with you.

They proclaim their love — quickly, frequently and persistently. Most of us interpret this ceaseless devotion as an indication that our new partner is truly smitten.

But it's not love — it's love bombing.

Unlike true love, love bombing is insincere. It is not an expression of your new partner's deepest feelings; it is a strategy to achieve an objective.

The objective is winning you over, so that you give the sociopath what he or she wants.

At the end of my short presentation, I’ll answer your questions.
