Perjalananku dalam belajar sampai pada apa yang ditulis Read The Smiths dengan artikel "How to recognize psychopath". Berikut ini yang bisa aku kutip:
- He has superficial charm: he is a smooth talker and very charming.
- He is self-centered and thinks he is way more important than others, even if in reality he isn't.
- He has a need for stimulation and is prone to boredom.
- His behavior is deceptive: he lies and cheats without difficulty. He doesn't mind being caught.
- He manipulates others for personal gain.
- He shows little remorse or guilt. Sometimes he'll say he's sorry, just so others will stop bugging him.
- His emotional response is shallow.

- He lives off others or has a predatory attitude.
- He has poor self-control.
