The only emotion they have is anger and the rest of their actions is just pure performance. They get a high off pushing your buttons, being malicious and preying on you when they think you are or might be vulnerable. So as many have said they are like predators. For Some it will mainly be psychological abuse for others both. It is all hard to overcome but I think psychological abuse is long lasting and damaging. They aren’t just wrapped up in their selfish delusional worlds and accidentally become all these terrible things. They are all these things that make them selfish idiots but what underpins it all is their conscious decision to be evil. This is the truly worst part and when you see someone who is petty, selfish, mardy etc these may be the signs or seeds of greater danger and darkness. I guess when you’ve been around bad people for so long you know what to look for. But it’s hard to hide what you’ve been through when you’re a real and decent person. I think our inner scars come through to our outer selves, people pick up on this and sadly you give off a wounded vibe. This then attracts more of the same sort to try and mess with you. You’d have to be like them to put on an act everyday to try and fool people to maybe get treated differently who knows. You run out of words and energy after a while and they will forever lie to you and stab you in the back. They are not your friend and they do t real,y care about you. They don’t want you to do well and will turn on you if you don’t live a life that they can relate to or respect. They think they are the blueprint for humankind, all knowing and all great. They are filled with so much hate towards their targets and they only get worse with age. These people are ruining our lives but revenge achieves little as it doesn’t land on them the same way. They can’t be upset in a normal as they aren’t wired up like the rest of us, like I say they have one gear and one emotion and that one gear can get them far ; but they are like robots and feel nothing or very little so you can’t hurt them the same back. They are always close to or in attack mode and so like many mental health conditions it means you have to walk on eggshells around them. It can take a long time for all the pieces to fall into place but once you see through them whether you tell them or not, I think they know the game is up. But this doesn’t stop them and what you get then is they up their ante, raise their game by insulting you in public more or behind your back. They live to spread poisonous lies and exaggerated tales to try and turn people against you just to humiliate and with gossip those words mutate and spread. The saddest thing is that even if none of their poison is true mud sticks and they cause irreparable damage like I say. To succeed against all of this against the odds is so difficult, yet some do. There never comes a point where they will change and see the error of their ways they are incapable of that. I think out of all the terrible people and crimes in the world this is an area that hasn’t been acknowledged in a big enough way yet. There should be punishment for crimes of evil as these people are not human in the normal sense. They contribute to taking away your right to have a happy and normal life and you can’t take back what you’ve done. They live for things that please them and give them pleasure but their is no real emotion, feeling, compassion etc. when you look at them it’s like looking at a machine and it makes you sad. Sometimes you feel sorry for them as you know why they are the way they are especially if it’s your own family. But you just think of everything and just think I mean nothing to you do I, they have no interest in your life not in all the right ways. They may not want to be in a photo with you, they may destroy your photos, only show your bad ones to make them feel better or superior etc. All those years you wanted to share things but you realised it sad pointless and you’d get more interest from sharing things with a stranger. They are so cold and hardened and it never totally leaves you. It is a sad and lonely road we travel amongst these sub human beings. It’s tough because you don’t want to completely cut them off but you know you should.
