“…Additional documented characteristics of sociopaths as a
group. One of the more frequently observed of these traits is a glib and
superficial charm that allows the true sociopath to seduce other people,
figuratively or literally – a kind of glow or charisma that, initially, can
make the sociopath seem more charming or more interesting than most of the
normal people around him. He or she is more spontaneous, or more intense, or somehow
more ‘complex,’ or sexier, or more entertaining than everyone else. Sometimes
this ‘sociopathic charisma’ is accompanied by a grandiose sense of self-worth
that may be compelling at first, but upon closer inspection may seem odd or
perhaps laughable.” Stout, Martha. The Sociopath Next Door. 6-7.
