Title: How is the sociopath so equipped to handle a BPD? Post by: Infern0 on October 02, 2014, 07:34:39 PM Obviously sociopath do not have emotions so the BPD tricks have absolutely no effect on them. They are also manipulative lying game players.
Does anyone have any insight into how a BPD/sociopath relationship plays out? I'd imagine that it'd be incredibly unstable and usually ended by the sociopath when he got "bored" of the pwBPD?

Which is love.
Te sociopath treats the borderline like a pimp treats a ___. Until he gets bored. They often believe the borderline to be too energy consuming so avoid them.

That is not a good combination at all. I would assume the BPD would constantly be chasing to get closer and get some genuine emotion out of them that they can never truly get since a sociopath doesnt feel emotion. At the same time I would imagine the bar would keep being raised higher and higher on the antics to get some reaction out of the sociopath. This is a really weird question bro kinda hard to answer but that seems like a dangerous combination. Sociopaths can seriously hurt you or even kill you and not even feel bad or any remorse about it. I don't know what type of personality would go well with a sociopath.

Definitely in the case of my exBPDh, it sounded like to me that his two previous relationships were with women with APD and or NPD. And his father definitely sounds like someone with APD.
The way he talked about these people, I could tell that they would always keep him hanging by a thread and he would be the one madly chasing after them for their approval / time / affirmationt / money. He was involved with a "gangster" type of girl, much younger than him, but already had a baby at age 16. He was together with this girl for some time, and told me that he wanted to adopt the little girl, even though she wasn't his (he had a vasectomy at a young age). His girlfriend would conveniently dump the child with him for the day, and go out with other men all day. It sounded like she ended the relationship with him, apparently she sent some of her criminal friends over to beat him up and tell him to stay out of her life. And yet, he often reminisced about how "good" the times were with her and her child. I think the two personality dynamics feed off each other and hook each other, but to the BPD's detriment.

Does the BPD still discard and replace the sociopath ultimately?

Basically just makes them chase and runs his manipulations untill he gets bored because they become annoying. |
