@frances007 and all here -- Only someone who has had or dealt with a sociopath in their life can fully understand the toxicity, unending stress, drama and destruction that they can wreak in a relationship. (Have one in our family.) The ongoing manipulation, lying, false excuses, gaslighting, insults, emotional abuse, and even potential physical abuse can be overwhelming. These people really care for no one but themselves, and will do just about ANYTHING to get what they want from others.

Best Advice to Anyone Out There: Get away and stay away, and don't look back. Share nothing personal with them... they'll only use it as a tool to further weaken you. Only keep positive people / things in your life... throw away all the negative ones.

You are so right, larryg.

As hard as it may seem, it's best to get far. far away from a sociopath. The short-term hurt is nothing compared to the long-term damage that a sociopath can inflict!

(Don't ask me how I know.)
