If someone is attracted to psychopaths, what does it say about them? They like to get charmed? Overly need attention? A bit vain and needy, perhaps?
Am I victim blaming to suggest this?
Are psychopaths victims of something??
They probably have been. Iām no expert on this. Psychopathy is a pathological behavioural thing, isnāt it? Itās only when they act on it that itās an issue.
Huh, I half assumed the real ones are born that way. Most arenāt serial killers, but bank presidents.

IMO itās a type of behaviour, not mental illness. Combined with childhood damage, which is likely as the parents will share similar genes, it can be very damaging to others. If not, as you suggest, psychopaths are likely to excel as bankers, politicians etc. That can be more damaging, of course, but less immediately obvious.
IDK enough about it to say one way or another, but what about psychopathy simply being further down the bell curve of neuro divergent?
Thatās what I was trying to say. Theyāre not mad, just different in ways that are not healthy for others.

I disagree with this. But, I could be wrong.
Itās implying that any selfish objectives are psychopathic.
Roger Federer is a psychopath?
Psychopaths are the type of people who have a complete disregard for others. They have no concept of boundaries and to that end do not respect other peopleās personal space. These are the kind of people who engage in harassing others whether online or in person.
Psychopaths bump ten year old threads. 
I donāt think thatās true to everyone. I would think psychopaths are rather socially aware and charming.

Not necessarily. I doubt they would risk their narcissistic tendencies and their ego with the number crunchers online.

Yes. Cult of personality.
True, but every tactic used by a psychopath is only for personal psychological gain/need (whatever that may be).
