If you are involved in a marriage to a sociopath / psychopath, you can and spend some time dazed and injured on the actions of his partner. While only a licensed mental health professional can diagnose a sociopath, it helps to know what signs may be evident in a person with this disorder. Here are 9 signs of a psychopath:
1. A tendency toward boredom, and the need for risk behaviors, regardless of danger to himself or others.
2. The lack of guilt and remorse. This is a hallmark of a sociopathic personality. Your spouse may not have consciousness in the sense that the real guilt and remorse for evil is not experienced. The sociopath may regret getting caught, but often feels that he or she is entitled to be painful, criminal or immoral because the victim was weak and therefore "deserved" it.
3. Poor impulse control and behavior. Your partner may have difficulty delaying gratification, and may engage in behaviors such as drug or alcohol abuse, and sexual promiscuity.
