I’m dating a sociopath?!?

Question

I’m doing a research paper on antisocial personality disorder, and from what I’ve read so far ( couple of books written by respected psychiatrists and many different articles) my boyfriend is showing most signs in his relationship with others, but I’ve never felt him being manipulative or aggressive towards me.... word of advice?

Answer

I almost forgot lol
My ex boyfriend is a sociopath, and the thing is, sitting here thinking about him i still can't really believe he was capable of acting the way he did towards me at the end.
 He showed NO signs of it in the beginning. Then once i started to get to know him more, and be in his world, i started to see he was pretty anti-social. He had friends, a ton of them, but he made no effort in building relationships, later realized he was incapable of doing so. I remember i asked him once, if we were going to one of his friend's party, "i don't care about him so why would i?" I thought he was joking but he literally didn't care. 
As our relationship went on, i started to notice that he was indifferent towards me. He probably always was, i just started to notice it in that point in time because he was going through a period where he lost control of everything going on with him and he kind of fell into a depression. But the thing is, while he was 'depressed', there would be times where he kind of just went black, and then he'd snap back and he was happy and upbeat, and the the next thing i knew he was throwing death threats at me. 
It was a surprise.to me because before that he never showed that he hated me.or that i was nothing to him but a sex toy. But in that first outburst, he described in a really detailed way, how he would kill me and my family. And the reason he got.upset with.me was because i took 3 hours to respond to a text. He didnt believe i was sleeping because i felt really sick. 
After that.outburst, i forgave.him bc he made me feel like he was genuinely sorry. I cut off the few friends i had left because he said they were toxic and i deserved better friends. I was 18, i didnt know better.
He wasn't ever sorry, though. Afterwards, he would blame every problem we had on me because apparently he was the perfect honest one and i was the one who manipulated him and lied about everything. I got used to that treatment, and i think we went on like that.for a couple of.months. i would cry myself to sleep almost every night bc we would be okay during the day and then at.night when i wanted to be.close.to him he'd turn away or he'd shut his phone off or something..
Towards the end of our relationship i found out he was physically cheating with multiple females and dating 2 other girls through the entire time we were together, which was 3 years. He felt NO guilt about it. I confronted him and he was like, "oh... lets go grab lunch." His exact  words. I didnt let it go, and i started yelling and screaming and be says  "i never.actually cared about you. In case you havent realized, i'm incapable of feeling love. I guess i grew fond of you but i never loved you and i never will." 
 he was the one who ended things because according to him, it was my fault that he was that way and that i was delusional. 
If you feel like he has sociopathic tendencies, you should leave.. you have no idea how damaged this man left me, i didn't even tell you actual fucked up things he did or got me to do. Even now, being married with 2 kids i still have issues trusting my husband because i'm paranoid.
Sorry for any typos, i was trying to type all of this while i had both my kids on my lap. #momlife

Answer

My advice is to take it slow and always watch for warning signs.
The wrong people can bring out bad sides of us but that is not who we truly are always. The right person can bring out the true us. 
But they also are good at hiding it and can for some years. But don't freak, just dont blind yourself to it possibly happening to you.

Answer

He actually got in contact with me yesterday and this is what he says... Im not sure he is sociopathic more than he is psychopathic. He's a bit scary.

Answer

Talk to him ? Try to make him feel better. If he gets to aggressive let him go or call therapy
