Overview

"Seduced by a Sociopath explains how millions of people pursuing romantic relationships are charming, affectionate, passionate -- and fake. These deceptive sociopaths, meaning people with antisocial, narcissistic, borderline, histrionic or psychopathic personality disorders, pursue romantic relationships not for love, but for exploitation. Learn how they convince you to fall for them, so you can spot the charade and escape. Perhaps you're already involved in one of these so-called ""relationships."" Your partner, who was once so attentive, has become abusive, and now you're wondering how you got yourself into this mess. Seduced by a Sociopath reveals the insidious strategies employed by these heartbreakers, and why you fell for the lies. This book is a curated collection of blog articles from Lovefraud.com, the premier Internet website on how to recognize and recover from sociopaths.
