I've been trying really hard but I can't get rid of

You remind of a person I knew. His mom was the same kind of person but she hides her sociopathy under the facade of religion. Fortunately, he was stupid so he wasn't enable to exercise his sociopathy to the fullest extent.

I'm not sure if you can change your lack of feelings or hatred for other people. You can control yourself so that your actions won't hurt other people though.

Thanks. I was checking something and you confirmed it =).

In a lot of the same boat as you OP, except I open up(?) for people I date. However I can't tell if anyone actually likes me or hates me unless it's glaringly obvious.
Im pretty good at seeming innocent with people usually asking if I attend church a lot.
I rest of things people do to wrong me for a while until they do the same thing and I flip it onto them with a joke and smile for that extra kick in the stomach.

For the most part I just stick to work and don't worry about stuff getting in my way to hinder me. Then I use my good work ethic for promotions and play the corporate game to get the people that like me the most into positions on par (different areas) or under me so keep a stranglehold on things.

Honestly, you picked up habits from your parents. Sociopathy isn't a habit, it's a mental illness, which you don't have. You sound like a teenager, and I can't take you seriously. You can't self diagnose, a psychiatrist must make this decision. Stop being a fucking faggot, grow the fuck up, or these things you speak of will get you killed.

I get your post but what's with the last part? not sure how it can "get me killed". There are people around me who are far worse than I am, nothing to do with violence. I just want to "feel" more if that makes any sense, I don't want to be like the other selfish hollow plastic pricks.

Being a sociopath isn't so bad

Just look at cats - everyone loves cats

OP, sociopathy isn't an end all be all. It's something, like all other mental things, that can be controlled.

Take the time to be mindful, even if in the moment you're selfish. I mean, you could just accept that socioapthy means you're just an ass hole?

There's really nothing wrong with that, you'll make it far in life if you play it smart in your career. So who cares? I remember when I realized I may have this, but I didn't care -- sure I had some moments where I was like "what the fuck, why can't I experience emotions like other people?" It felt like I was missing out all the time. But then I realized there's more to life than just emotions -- I could enjoy my self in moments where people would be sad, mad or happy. It's like a filter that's take off in my life -- where I would be controlled by emotions I just didn't feel anything at all. Mind you, you'll have to fake it in front of people sometimes. It's annoying, really. But that's what it takes if you want to 'fit' in or go far in life with sociopathy.

Ask me more questions if you want, I've gone through a lot of things that other people wouldn't have the opportunity to if it weren't for how I am.

I work in investment banking and I've always felt that having very low sensitivity to emotion helps me get ahead to be honest.

You just have to avoid the kind of people who'll get pissy if you don't share their peculiar brand of irrationality.
