Dealing with a Sociopath: How to survive the antisocials, narcissists and psychopaths in your life (Best of the Lovefraud Blog)

Dealing with a Sociopath explains how to interact with someone who lies, cheats, manipulates and exploits. Sociopaths, meaning people who could be diagnosed with antisocial, narcissistic, borderline, histrionic or psychopathic personality disorders, only care about what they want - what you want or need is irrelevant. If you have no choice but to engage with them, learn how to protect yourself. Sociopaths do not follow the rules of regular human interaction. These people can appear to be normal, but they live their lives by manipulating others. Your best bet may be to walk away from them, but this is not always possible. If you have no choice but to interact with a sociopath, you must always be on high alert.
