    My ex wife's father tried to warn about his daughter when I first met him. His message was full of pain from what she had done to him. I thought he was being a bit harsh, roll on thirty years I am still trying get my life back together at 58.
    Until I watched this video I had the impression that she was a covert narcissist. The descriptions of a psychopath given here match exactly to her behaviour. I will say unless you are a psychopath or a hard core narcisist youself you will be destroyed by them if you remain in their sphere of influence .
    You must get away, far away, out of sight and out of their minds.
    Female psychopaths have the ability to rally army's of willing supporters male and female to help crush every fiber of your being.
    She once said to me after she had told the most horrid lies to those around us that, reality was what people believe it to be.
    If you don't like what I am doing to you then don't piss me off.
    In 15 years I never saw her cry once not even giving birth to our 2 children.

      Good to hear that's it's over. However, the thing about the father is just a tragedy. It's not like cruel people pop out of existence out of nowhere. They come from a mother and a father. The father saying his daughter is cruel is what all cruel people say, where do you think she got it from? The father was just as cruel as her, unless he was a codependent, which is also sad and pathetic.

Having to watch my mother shoot kittens with a shotgun. Verbally and physically abused almost daily. Sexulally abused by step brother. I was run over by a car driven by my step father. They just
      put me on my bed and let my cry myself to sleep. I was so traumatized by being run over that I could not even move. I could never bend over and touch my toes from that day on. These are just a few of the things that happened to me. I live in hope that there are good people in the world.

    I was married to a female psychopath for several years. All of this information is 100% spot on. I would like to add that she was also very adept (towards the end) at manipulating law enforcement and the legal system to be her thugs. She manipulated cops, prosecutors and judges with ease, having me falsely imprisoned for 2 years on her word alone. She used that time to systematically defraud me. I was finally released when she tired of the game and moved on, but not before I lost everything financially between what she stole and legal fees.

      Me too. I am a borderline. I found out about what was going on around me less then a year ago. My other is 63 now & I finally realized her true nature when i got sick around covid & she was happy. Then I started piecing together what she’s been doing trying to ruin me and Rob me throughout the years. The worst part is handed up with a psychopath as the father to my second son, and he acted like a covert narcissist at first. I’m watching these videos because I’m realizing it now and we’re all drained and angry and I was happy go lucky and something like SpongeBob. It got passed down from his mother that threw him away and let him get abused. Of course they didn’t present like this, and I didn’t realize people were like this. But he takes that all his anger for her on me and my sons, and it only took until now for me to put everything together. I just simply don’t think like that, and it’s almost like they’re trying to pass the evil down more. I see it in my family but it’s nothing like this. Probably why I couldn’t spot it. There’s a lot of general dysregulation. I should’ve known because she was a stripper, and they say that you have to detach to do that and that’s what makes them psychopaths, but I never put two and two together again. I thought I could just be good and nice I swear.

What I've learned on this healing journey after being in a relationship with a clinically diagnosed ASPD individual and getting help from a psychologist who's studied this for 30yrs helped me figure out and heal from it. Not saying all that dont have that response are psychopatic but it is a good indicator that thats what you're dealing with and just pointing it out. Theres other little nuances that when added to the criteria pointed out here in this video that will help protect against becoming a target by these types and lack of startle response and the the lack of a yawning when coupled with these other redflags is a pretty good indicator that you're dealing with one. Another misconception is that introverts are anti social, they're not and theres alot of confusion around that. Someone diagnosed with anti social personality disorder arent introvets like we see claimed on social media, its actually quite the opposite. I made the mistake of thinking that,getting involved with one with that diagnosis. Its actually a diagnosis of psychopathic personality disorder, an inter species predator that cause a lot of emotional, financial,reputation and at times physical damage to their victims. I've spent the last 7 yrs studying these types and the CPTSD that comes with it to protect myself and heal and just pointing out other nuances and traits they exhibit outside of the main redflags that are easier to spot once you know. Just my experience and sharing things I learned along the way.🕊

      ​@@Pushing_Pixels the reason its undiagnosed is because female psychologists are unwilling to acknowledge reality. Feminism has brainwashed women into believing "we've always been oppressed, and now its time to explore what being a woman is. I cant be shamed, and no behavior is bad in the exploration of being a liberated female" its why you cant find accountability among women. If there were more men in psychology, there would be more diagnosis of psychopathy, and narcissism.

      This is possible. Though, I think in this case, specifically, the issue is that psychopathy in men and women tend to differ, so using men's criteria to diagnose a woman would almost always result in a negative diagnosis because they (typically) behave differently. It's a similar situation with autism as well. A lot of girls were not diagnosed with autism because female behaviors and male behaviors of the disorder present differently. It wasn't until very recently that this was recognized, and we're seeing an upsurge in female dianoses of autism. I suspect the same will happen with psychopathic women now that there is more research and understanding on how females with the disorder show up differently than their male counterparts (again, typically.)

    I was in a relationship with a woman who seemed great. One night she had me tied up in the bed, which was something we did here and there. Suddenly she started smothering me. She told me a while back that she had a thing for that, but I told her hell no. So this one night she had me vulnerable and just did it, didn't care if I wanted it or not. When she let go I screamed and begged her to stop, but I could see in her eyes, there was no empathy, just a predatory, lustful look. That's the best way I can describe it. She was enjoying hearing me beg and cry (I did literally cry). She kept smothering me on and off and letting me get enough air to survive. After she came she immediately apologized but also acted like it was no big deal, saying stuff like "I just got carried away, sorry." Then she started hugging me and saying stuff like "it's okay, I'm here for you." I was so freaked out and traumatized I just begged to be let go, but she refused until I "calmed down" and she knew I wouldn't be mad at her. Eventually she let me go and I swear I was in a state of shock for days. Luckily my brain came to its senses and I got the hell away from her. I'll never forget though how this person that I had trusted enough to tie me up had suddenly changed to the point that I was just a piece of meat to her and I had no hope of talking her out of what she was doing. Very scary.

    I finally after all my resources were gone,left her.

      Sounds familiar to me. I wasn't so lucky as this guy you know. I'm in California. Laws regarding domestic disputes changed after the OJ Simpson/Nicole Brown trial and took discretion away from responding officers. It also created a bias that heavily favors females. I was arrested for felony domestic battery upon returning from a bike ride. We had just had an argument because my kids had found my wife's meth 3 times in a month. I confronted her and told her that she needed to enter drug treatment voluntarily and if she didn't she would face a mental health evaluation against her will and then drug treatment. I went for a bike ride to give her time to consider her options and to cool things down. I came back to find police and an ambulance in my driveway. She had chosen an option I had not considered. She had one injury on her left hand not made by me and not there when I left. I believe she laid her left hand flat on a table or the wall and whacked it with some blunt object. Then called the police. Because of the nature of the wound it was felony domestic battery. A strike. Overzealous prosecutors would not grant me a release on my own recognizance and I could not get bail because she would not cooperate. I was boxed in and forced to plead guilty to get out of jail after 14 days. If I hadn't I would have lost everything. I ended up losing everything anyway. I tried to do the right thing by my wife and my kids and I got burned at the stake for it. Had to attend 176 hours of anger management. This was during the covid lockdowns so it was extremely difficult and stressful. I haven't seen or spoken to any of my 3 kids since this happened 8 years ago. I was a full time, fully engaged dad for 19 years(to my oldest son. My youngest spent the entirety of her teens without me in her life) and then the next day I was not. They were what I was most worried about from the beginning and I got shut out of their lives while she got to continue to abuse them with impunity.
      I know a guy who had something very similar happen to him. He ended up going to prison for 4 years. Killed himself while he was there. Poor guy had 5 kids he was trying to protect from his addict wife and they treated him harshly. It happens alot more then people can even imagine. You know why? Because district attorneys often have narcissistic qualities also. Narcissists tend to relate to and side with other narcissistic types in court cases. That and they don't play fair. They don't hear your story or see you as an individual. They see you as a chess match and numbers to pad their reelection campaign. No one even cared about my kids or what would become of them after their judgement. They destroyed my family. And there's not a damn thing I can do about it but try to make sense of it and leave comments on CZcams...and that isn't working out so well for me. Would not wish this on my worst enemy. I still wake up at night randomly punching the wall. Fighting an invisible enemy and trying to rescue my kids. They may as well have killed me. I wish they would have because I can't do it myself.

I loved all my kids but she had a special place in my heart. She was my baby. My youngest daughter. The last I knew I'd ever have. I enjoyed spending time with her and spoiling her.

So when you see the signs DO NOT excuse them, try to "understand her/him". Pray for them, hope for them to heal, but DO NOT bring them into your life believing "If they just had some patience and understanding, all will be well". These are DEEP issues that WILL NOT CHANGE.

Then the passive aggressiveness, dismissive, avoidant, the pain and suffering like nothing I have EVER experienced. We split 4 times after the "I'm not putting up with that shit".
    She was rude to me on the phone and I called her rude. She dumped me. Days later, the stress of it all caused me to have a seizure in December.
    I text her to tell her. Nothing, she abandoned me.
    I'm still off work. Lost, but stronger but still perplexed as to how I fell for it. I thought I was the idiot but I'm not.
    I've read everything I could to understand the Narcissist. Even the DSM manual doctors use to identify NPD etc.
    To be fair. I feel sorry for her. I'll get over it. She, is stuck with this illness if you will, protecting her very fragile ego. Regardless, she's unstable and weak. Pathetic and dumb.

    No contact is definitely the way to go! After a year and a half of the wildest rollercoaster ride of my life, I decided that I had put up with too much for too long and made a complete break. For months she tried to make me the bad guy accusing me of cheating (because I moved on and started a new relationship). I ignored all her manipulative texts. After six months, she texted me the first, last and only apology I ever got from her. I ignored that too. A year later I saw her publicly brow beating her next victim in a parking lot both verbally and physically. He moved along too. Many years later she tried draw me back in after her latest break up. I was polite but ignored her attempts to draw me back in. During our relationship, it was always her way or the highway and she was constantly trying to inlist me as her advocate to break back into social circles that she had manager to alienate herself from. If someone reminds me of her, I avoid them as well. No need to make that mistake twice.

I'd had experience with Coverts and BPDs along with another friend in the room and we were giving each other knowing glances, we were the only 2 she didn't ATM. I talked with this woman maybe 7/8 times after that and always demonstrated perfect charm for the given audience and seldom boring but such a blatant mercenary she was never getting anywhere near my life. They have a way of convincing people doing something for them is the thing you want to do most in the entire world.

    In my experience, this is precisely correct.
    I was with a woman like this for about seven years. She knew a lot about me, and used it like a bludgeon.
    Once the problems started, my research suggested she might be a covert narcissist, but I eventually spotted traits that looked more like antisocial , borderline, sociopath etc.
    In therapy, she triangulated her therapist. Lying, stealing, cheating, mental and even physical abuse were all standard operating procedures for her. She tried to have me arrested claiming l was the abuser, and eventually began to harass my family and even aged relatives on the other side of the country.
    She once claimed a doctor told her she could get away with killing her partner, based on what she described as her "PMS".
    I left for good over three and a half years ago, and have since found out that the smear campaign had begun years prior. She continues to harass me online with numerous fictitious identities, and while I am in no way qualified to diagnose her illness, l believe she is indeed a psychopath.

    If you have ever taken a Myers-Briggs (MB) personality test and come out as ENFJ or INFJ then you will also recognise how ENFJ and INFJ personality traits also overlap greatly with PHIL and COLE. There is also growing evidence that correlates people who test as MB ENFJ or INFJ with being the victims of Cluster Bs. I tested as ENFJ but close to INFJ. These are the two rarest MB personalty types, and as with Lise's PHIL and COLE, it's easy to see how those with Psychopathic or Narcissistic traits would just 'love' us to bits (and we will be in bits when they have finished with us.)! It's essential to be aware of who you are and learn, against your natural instincts, to spot and act on red flag early. Most people will see them far earlier and easier than us and run (fast). We must learn to do the same - sad but true!

    The observation of mind reading is accurate. Even when texting, she demanded voice messages.

    She dropped me a year ago. However, she came back a few weeks ago with an apology.
    I kept her at arms length. Within two days, she was talking to me about my "traumatic" childhood.
    (Wasn't great, but I didn't become a psycho)
    She isn't that adept at manipulation. Nice try, though.
    I knew she hadn't changed.
    Within two days, she flew into a blind rage. Ah yes, good times!
    The next day.
    I sent her a couple of chapters from an audio book on redpill.
    Along with an insulting meme.
    The chapters alluded to the fact that I recognize female persuasions, and I'm not buying it.
    She blocked me.
    I warned her in a veiled way that I won't tolerate any bullshit this time.
    I figured she was BPD, but she has some narcissism, misandry,
    and psychopathy on the side.

I guess, compared to factor 2 females and male psychopaths in general, they are too sneaky to get into troubles with law enforcement and their destruction plays out relationally, on victims within their closest circle who often simply cannot figure out what the heck had happened to them (or they had gone insane and no one would believe them anyway)... so there rarely is any reporting them to law enforcement or social or public services. Sneaky creatures they are indeed, they fly under the radar.

    Great video. I think it's worth recognising the work of Sandra L Brown, who's "Super traits" map very well to PHIL and COLE. Her victims of Cluster Bs were all female but she confirms that men have Super traits too, so this would make them very vulnerable to Cluster Bs. Her work was to academic standards and involved a large sample size. The super traits clustered into 2 main categories with the following sequence of correlation to vulnerability to cluster B abuse - 1. Conscientiousness 2. Agreeableness! Contained within these clusters are traits like elevated levels of empathy and over trusting. They overlap well well with of PHIL and COLE. It's also worth noting that being a child of a Cluster b also plays a role here, as these victims have also been desensitised to the abusive behaviour and are likely to accept/minimise the pain /abuse, seeing it all as being part of 'love' - which, as Lise knows well, - it isn't! Even if, like me, you had a Narc mom who tells you it is.

    It’s hard to want share about the damage a narcissist can inflict or the hurt of affairs as a man, because it seems like people view the wounds as invisible scars. As if men are some how not human and impervious to heartbreak.
    Never had any worries of mental health until recently. I have never experienced a sadness to this degree and having a family makes it extremely difficult to walk away, even if it means I regain myself in the process.

    I met and dated a female psychopath.
    I see people in the comments asking, "Give examples" or "How was it that bad?"
    Well, before I met my psychopath I was very clearly NOT gay. (I'm female too)
    We met, and at first I thought she was really cool, and a very good friend. We clicked right away. (Red flag I didn't see)
    Up to this point in time she had been pursuing me on and off. She would flirt, give me gifts, love letters, suggest "Maybe you just don't KNOW you aren't gay cause you never tried it before?"
    I responded "No, I'm pretty sure I'm not."
    Still this didn't deter her.
    Then I met a guy. He was nice, smart, kind. I started to hang out with him more, which she complaigned to me she didn't like. "You never have time for meeee anymore. :( Aren't I your bff?"
    I felt bad/guilty so I would try to hang out with her more.
    I tried to balance both people but it was hard.
    Then one day the guy I was seeing came to me upset saying I hadn't been honest with him. I was confused what he was even talking about. "I've been betrayed." he said, and then left.
    I didn't know what happened but I went to my bff about it. She said she didn't know why he was upset. đŸ€·â€â™€ïž "I don't know"
    So I cried on her shoulder about him leaving me and she comforted me for weeks. She was there for me whenever I needed, tissues in hand and holding my hand while I cried in sadness.
    We then dated and well, I'm sure you know what happens. The mask came off and she was mean to only me. Everyone else only saw the saint.
    Well, it wasn't until years after we broke up that I found out the reason the guy left me was because she talked badly about me to him behind my back.
    She did it because she wanted to be with me and knew I wouldn't if he stayed.
    Just think, I could be happily dating him rn (a normal guy) but instead I'm heartbroken over a scheming psychopath.

      1.) I wasn't actually dating the guy, yes, we were talking/getting to know each other. However we had just met. I didn't know him that long and I knew the psychopath a long while at this point. (Enough to be bffs)
      He wasn't my bf, just a guy who I was getting to know.
      2.) I hadn't known him long and he had also was somewhat friends with the psychopath too. (Not exactly but sort of)
      We hung out in the same social circles so to speak.
      3.) You forget how convincing/sneaky psychopaths can be. And I don't know when or how many times they talked or what was said. I wasn't there when they had such convos so I don't know what happened.
      4.) I tried to ask him/explain when he came up to me upset but he didn't wanna listen. Sometimes people just don't wanna hear your side of things, and even if you tell them they don't believe you. You can't force others to change their opinion about you.
      It's like work at a new job. You meet people and get along with some your coworkers and make friends and you are happy. You feel like you are fitting in.
      But then your boss doesn't like you and suddenly there are whispers going on and you get weird looks every shift but you don't know why and nobody tells you why.
      You try to think what it could be. "Was it something I said? Did I offend someone? Do something wrong? Do I smell?"
      Then your boss comes up to you later and tells you you have been let go because of company lay offs OR your boss tells you they have to cut back your hours so now you only work 1 shift a week. (They do this so you quit instead)
      Either way, you leave and then you don't know why it happened.
      It's like that kind of. (Not really but I hope you can understand)

    I dated a psychopath 7 years ago. She joked at the beginning she was one. Of course, I laughed it off as a joke... but my gut felt off. Usually you lose weight after a relationship. I was losing weight during. Listen to your subconscious predator warning intuition. She noticed and observed things about me and my life that no one else did, she made sure that everything she was interested in was conveniently related to what I was without being an obvious emulation. Here's a little test for you if you are in similar circumstances... tell them a friend's partner has just died and see how they react, then see how they react when they think you aren't watching. It happened to my friend and when I told her in a sad and distraught manner... she smiled with glee when she thought I wasn't looking. They always change their facial expressions when they think you cant see them. Always look back or take a second glance and you might spot a mask slip at the most inappropriate time... After the abrupt discard (I knew it was going to happen but not in the way ti did) I found out more about her from the friends I had made through her... checked nearly all of the criteria but it's less overt than a male psychopath. Feeling haunted when you are dating them is the best description I can give... Anyway, it was a fling. A circus fling. We were young, and she hadn't honed her cluster B craft yet and I managed to quarantine her from important things in my life. I fear for the man she ends up with when she's a master of her deception.
