 Not all liars are alike. Some people lie, but their lies are not caused by a serious mental illness. Conversely, psychopaths lie habitually, and their vice is a part of a personality disorder that makes them cold-hearted and have no conscience. How can you tell if the lie you know is a psychopath? Here are some tell-tale signs. 1. Psychopaths lie extremely frequently. Many people tell a white lie once in a while to spare someone's feelings. Psychopaths lie pathologically about anything and everything. Deception is an integral part of their disorder. 2. Psychopaths lies are driven by multiple motives. Ruthless, powerful dictators like Stalin and Hitler were psychopaths. They lie as a means of manipulation to exercise dominance over others. These individuals also lie to cover up their misdeeds in illegal activities. Characteristically, they tell the ultimate lie. I love you. 3. Psychopaths have a convincing manner. Lying seems to be as effortless as breathing for a psychopath. Since they lack empathy, they can lie while looking people in the eye and be very convincing. Because they're skilled actors and don't feel shame, they can give the impression of being guiltless. 4. Psychopaths play on people's sympathies. They play upon the natural tendency of people to want to help those in need. It's common for them to fake injuries or ailments. Their ease and skill in the art of deceit opens the doors for many exploitation opportunities. 5. A psychopath's truth is momentary. As their feelings are shallow, the truths they tell are only momentary varities. For example, they may declare their love for a girlfriend in the heat of passion, but an hour later, be in hot pursuit of another woman. Their focus is always on the next temporary pleasure. 6. Psychopaths leave behind trophies of their lies. The cruelty of psychopaths leads them to leave behind tangible proof of their deceit, known as trophies. It's a way of flaunting their lies. For example, if they're having an affair, they might leave a trinket from their girlfriend in a place where they know it will be discovered by their wife. This is a game of catch me if you can. This could also be spending time with one woman while texting another. Living on the edge is a thrill for them. 7. Psychopaths have their own language. Common phrases and statements have a different meaning for psychopaths. For example, you're my one and only might mean you're one of a long line of women who have succumbed to my charm. Likewise, trust me, might translate into what a dope. 8. Psychopaths are masters of denial and minimization. They are glib with denials and minimizations when their lies are discovered. If confronted with their deceit, they quickly accuse their victim of imagining things or exaggerating. Thus, their denials compound the lie. 9. Psychopaths are addicted to deception. People afflicted with this disorder have no desire to stop lying. Their biggest emotional high comes from deceiving a woman who trusts them. Regardless of how much trouble they get into because of their lies, they lack the moral incentive to improve their behavior. 10. Psychopathic liars have certain personality traits. Their habitual lies are part of a personality profile that is indicative of their illness. In addition to the aforementioned manipulative tendency, desire to dominate and lack of empathy, they are also bored, irresponsible, narcissistic, remorseless, and charming.
