5 Signs That You’re Dating a Psychopath

There are a lot of things that women do that drive us nuts, but none worse than convincing us that they’re completely normal only to turnout to be completely psychotic when you decide to take the nose dive in and date them.

This deception technique is as old as time and I wish I could present you a solution on how to avoid these overly controlling types of females; however, the reality is that preparation for this simply doesn’t work.

On the surface, everything is going to be fine and dandy. You will quickly find yourself being enticed in by all the good stuff — the sex, the spontaneity of trying things with a new girl, the compatibility factor, etc. — and you will be too blind to pull yourself out before it’s too late.

One thing will lead to another and, soon enough, you will be dating. Then her true colors will show up and you’ll start to wonder how the hell you could have played this hand so poorly. It happens to the best of us don’t worry about it, bro.

If you’re reading this and you really don’t know if the chick you’re dating is a psycho, then here are five signs to help you out:

Jealousy

This is a two-way street, so be very mindful.

If she starts to text other guys or, worse, former boyfriends out of the blue or even routinely, then she’s attempting to trigger some wickedly duplicitous mind game to enrage you and create envy. My suggestion is don’t play into her hand as hard as that is to resist. Let her text whoever she wants and don’t get mad because chances are that’s all that she wants.

Show her everything is cool in your head — that your confident enough to not throw a hissy fit over some guy she fucked five years ago — and hopefully that’ll make hers balance out. If not, then the inevitable break up will come and you’ll be the one doing the severing.

On the flip side, if she gets jealous when you talk other girls — like telling you to break off all communication to other females, then that’s her waving the red flag at you that something might not be right upstairs. She might not present this flaw all that often but when she does, take it as a sign and run like hell in the other direction. You don’t want to be in a relationship that is dictated by jealousy.

Knowledge

The bros who don’t know if they’re dating a psychopath really need to read this because it’s the most discreet sign, and without question the most important.

If you’re relationship is like an unbalanced seesaw of knowledge, then it’s going to fail and you’re going to be miserable. What I mean by this is that you’re always asking her about her day, her friends, her life, and you get none of that interest in return. It may be she wants to keep you at a distance or she might like talking about herself, but really the only way I see it is if she’s not asking you how you’re doing, then what’s the fucking point?

She’s clearly not all there and you shouldn’t waste your time with a chick that can’t form a basic human connection with somebody, nonetheless the person she’s dating or “in love with.” I’m not saying she is in fact in love with you but if she says yes to being your girlfriend, then that should mean something. Even if its as simple as, “how was your day?”

Change

She’s crazy if she wants you to completely change who you are without every getting to know the real you. It sounds cliché as hell, but it’s true and I don’t have much else to add.

If she wants you to be a little more organized or try a bit harder at romance, then do it, but a massive overhaul of character is a major sign that you’re not meant to be together. End of discussion.

Happiness

This one may be the most obvious through body language and facials, but at the same time it’s the easiest to ignore because of what she’s giving you elsewhere (i.e. sex). She may seem happy and content generally, but a really good way to study this characteristic is to watch her from afar, like at parties or other big social events.

Instead of smiling and laughing, she’ll be pointing out flaws or looking at the floor — that is if she’s a psycho. You can pretty much clear her of the diagnosis if she’s constantly laughing and being playoff.

Unless she has a pair of…

Crazy eyes

This is the easiest sign to read, yet the one that gets overlooked most often because some dudes just can’t help themselves for falling for a certain eye color whether it be blue, green or hazel. Regardless, it’s not the shade of the eye that gives it away; it’s the way she looks at you when you’re talking or looks at others when they’re doing something she disapproves of. Most important, it’s how she looks at people that matter in your life — your friends, your parents, etc. If she’s completely disinterested in them, then this chick is not a keeper.

Her personality usually gives you a lot of the tell-tell signs of a psycho — standoffish, judgmental, insecure, etc., but the ultimate guide into her brain, and into her soul really, is through her eye.

It takes a lot of time to get enough experience to be an expert on reading the eye— I’m far from an authority, but when you do master it you can really help prevent yourself from dating a psycho for the rest of your life; it’s that empowering of a sign. You can tell when you first meet a girl whether or not they’re stable by looking her right in the eye. It sounds too good to be true, but it is.
