Is a psychopath capable of love?

[Anonymous]

can a psychopath love another person? have you ever known a psychopath?

While this question may seem complicated it's not really. A psychopath can and will still feel lonely if they do not receive attention. Psychopaths also still have a deep wish to be loved and cared for. Whether they understand that or not.
And love comes from attention really. Psychopathy of all kinds is more to do with the lack of empathy and that part getting screwed up.
Not the part that still wants affection, whether they understand or how to get that or have some unstable way of showing it that's another story. With empathy been screwed up it has a nock on effect.
And a massive thing is psychopaths as in the type who aren't like sociopathic. Have a much harder time forming bonds and you kinda need one for love. But I think if the psychopath was explained to by someone that basically just try stay with someone, keep up that affection, keep up that form of acting. And I think it can sorta work. It's not 100% full proof. But by science it's very well know that time spent with someone + affection cuddling and that will lead to a state of love. Now will it ever be as deep as someone with working empathy probably not. But it will indeed be the best one will get.
Sociopaths on the other hand like I said make much easier bonds but to not be fooled. This is a bad thing. Sociopaths often create toxic bonds and abuse and all that kinda stuff. Where as to psychopath this would be seen as a pointless thing to do just get rid of the person instead if it's not good. But sociopaths are more emotional in that sense and will keep a toxic relationship for the sake of it.

Well they probably think so but, no.
Most women actually fit the profile of a psychopath. They don't really love the object of their affection. But they are still obsessed with everything about him. Because at the end of the day it's not really about them. It's about her.
