I'm reading a book called, "The Manipulative Man;" It describes various types of manipulators. One is a psychopath; some of the symptoms include:
Inconsistencies between expressed emotions and body lang.
Tells numerous lies, then denies
Makes remarks that are cold and callous then says he was just kidding.
Acts remorseless in circumstances which normally require an apology.
Talks about impressive, unrealistic plans for the future.
Enjoys risk and danger.
Habitually blames other for his mistakes.
Expects more from relationships than is willing to give.
Secretive about past.
Refuse to answer e-mails or says very little in writing.
repeatedly cheats in relationships for excitement and challenge.

My WH changed from a good, honorable man into a person I don't recognize anymore. I've known him for 20 years, and he was always the same.

Now he is selfish, cold, a liar and cheater. My friends and family all say he must have been that way all along, but was just hiding it.

To me, he is more like a heroin addict than a psychopath. He will stoop very low and give up all his morals to continue using.
