This is a good read for anyone trying to figure out how to survive a divorce from, and co-parent with a Sociopath.
It's certainly not for the weak, and now I see all the times I've handled it incorrectly. I'm slowly learning he truly has no conscience, and he has no remorse or concern for how his behavior hurts these children or me. It's disturbing, but oh so true and spot on. These broken sociopaths will NEVER tell the truth, or admit fault. Ever. It's just the way it is.
My mission is to now make sure my children and I have the tools and knowledge to survive this monster. He will not change, but I will change the way I react and get the counseling we all need to heal from the abuse he has put us through.
Hope this will help someone out there!

Thank you for sharing this strongmama.
This explains my situation and what I'm going through EXACTLY! Minus the children thank God.
He is not who I thought I married and never was.
Honestly I don't know who the fuck he is. I keep finding more and more stuff about him. All he denies of course.
Glad he is 800 miles away, so glad!
Thank God the light bulb has finally went off in my head. I am divorcing this POS soon.
I fear he has broken me...but only temporary. But I doubt I will ever love or trust blindly again

Wow, I never really considered the Gnat a sociopath, but he fits a many parts of this. Just a few areas where he doesn't. It makes me re-consider how I deal with him.

That describes my STBX to a tee but he's very subtle about it. He completely discarded me once I exposed his double life and never once fought to get me or the kids back. Never once did he say he'd do anything. He tried to flip everything back on me and it took me a while to realize I will never understand his crazy world because I'm just not built that way. Thank god for that.
Thanks for sharing strongmama.
