Has anyone ever dated a narcissist and or sociopath?

Question

I have... it's been about six months + with no contact but I still find myself wanting to stalk his social media. It's awful. He has just found a new target, and has impregnated her and asked for her hand in marriage within a month. I'm scared for her because I know the pattern. The lies, gaslighting, manipulation, all just to get their resources. Once they're through, they're through with you and you're discarded, alone, miserable, and emotionally very wounded. I can't even begin to tell you how difficult recovery is from dating a narcissist or sociopath. Does anyone have any stories they'd like to share? Thank you in advance.

Answer

Yep. Very intelligent guy, and very selfish. Walking around looking for an ego boost, and when you stop giving it to him, he's done. 
Manipulative liar.

Answer

I was with someone for two years. I met him playing Xbox, which I thought was crazy. He was persistent so we connected on Facebook. He had the most beautiful smile I had ever seen. He came to visit for two weeks and it was very enjoyable. He met my kids and was wonderful with them. They adored him and I fell for him even more so. He came to live with me a couple of months later... on valentines day. He came with a ring and an important question. He proposed. I said yes. He had me hooked. He started to be rude to me and say things that were out of character for him. He was schizophrenic and bipolar... He claimed that it was controlled and that it didn't affect his relationships. It did. Before I knew it I was sucked into a vicious cycle of feeling like I needed him and begging him to stay and work on our relationship constantly. I was overly apologetic and I hadn't done anything to him. He'd be nice for a day but then for days following that, I'd be crying myself to sleep each night wishing that I wouldn't wake up. He didn't work, I supported him and he had me convinced that I had to have him. It's weird how abuse works because I wouldn't tolerate any of that shit now. I bought us a house and he seemed happy with that. We moved and had a few social gatherings and friends invited friends. He picked one and started cheating in the home that I was paying for while I was out working. A 3 month affair with a woman that was married and they had 5 kids between them. He even hoped that he'd get her pregnant... He'd been cheating a month before our wedding, the month of and the month after. I guess that all came about because he was guilty about what he was doing. Things never got better. Luckily someone told me about him cheating and I confronted him. He denied it at first so I messaged the woman. She admitted it. I knew it was true when I was told about it. Just a gut feeling. I was broken hearted but part of me already hated him for the way he had been to me. .

Answer

I was with my daughter's dad for 3 yrs, I was cut down, cursed at, spit at, and beat while 5 months pregnant. He was on Dope, but he'd clean up things would go good even great then it'd start all over again. He talked crap about me to his friends mostly lies, stopped touching me but would masterbate to a porn. It took nearly three yrs of that shit before I walked out. He started getting clean, our relationship was good for her then he went down hill and never recovered. He was laid to rest two yrs ago. Idk how I'd felt had he got with another girl knowing what he was about to do to her, it's not easy being with a person like that.
