10 Traits of a Sociopath
Sociopath Trait #5: Manipulative
We will usually allow people to pretty much lead their lives as they wish. We might occasionally try to encourage or influence people into doing something that suits us, but few people will try to force other people into doing things they don’t want to do. A sociopath, however, will want to maintain control over people and manipulate them to their liking.
A sociopath will gladly control and manipulate people in a way that benefits them. They will use pretty much any technique at their disposal, including using people against others and emotional blackmail. The sociopath will care little for the well-being of those they are manipulating. All that matters is how they will gain from it personally.
