    almost textbook sociopathy

    I guarantee you have no fucking clue what the word even means in a medical context; because I’ve not given you enough information in the slightest to be even close to making that kind of diagnosis.

    The word you’re looking for is misanthrope.

      Sociopaths can develop attachments to those close to them, usually based more on personal benefit/gain but they sometimes confuse this with genuine emotional attachment.

      Though yes, I’m not making an actual medical diagnosis.
