Compared to the experience of anybody that has been their codependent, this article makes sociopaths appear as downright whimsical. If she really is a sociopath, it’s a carefully-crafted tip of the iceberg sort of cathartic lie. And if she’s not, well, it’s still a lie, but the self-deprecating kind that endears us to her; which is exactly what a sociopath would want us to believe, just for fun, no other reason. You can’t figure it out. You can’t win. It will destroy you and everything you know about yourself. Move on.
