Do you sometimes feel that your partner is crazy? We are not talking about the times you are angry and you call your partner mad. Do you really think that your partner could be clinically insane? Sometimes, the signs that you are dating a psychopath are not very obvious. However, you need to pick up the signs that your boyfriend or girlfriend is a psychotic early. This is to preserve your own sanity and mental health.

If you can sense these signs that you are dating a crazy person, then you should dump him/her immediately. Such people can be dangerous when they are pushed against the wall. Your life also may be at risk if your partner is really crazy.

HUMANE WAYS TO HANDLE A SUICIDAL PARTNER

Such people have some typical traits that are sometimes exaggerated in Hollywood movies. She will not come on to you like a Sharon Stone from 'Basic Instinct'. He might also not be the typical nutcase boyfriend from teenage slasher movies. There are some subtle signs that you are dating a psychopath.

These not so obvious signs are hard to pick up. But you must do your best to track them so that you do not get mixed up in an emotionally draining and abusive relationship. Be careful and act on your instinct if you feel you are dating a crazy person.

You might find the following points to be deja vu.

You Are Charmed By Them In The Beginning

In the beginning, you are drawn to a psychopath like a moth is drawn to a flame. This person is interesting, caring and mysterious, someone you always wanted. But this attraction is just a bait to prey on you emotionally.

Your Partner Is The Life Of The Party

Crazy people are not crazy all the time. Your partner might also have his or her good days on which they can bring the house down with their quick sense of humour.

Has An Uncertain Past

Crazy people have a past that has some loopholes. You will see wide gaps in their educational career and even in their professional life. They give vague reasons for these gaps.

Never Answers Questions Directly

Such people will never answer straight cut question directly. If you ask him where his parents stay, he will tell you they used to stay in Mumbai. You press further and ask him where they stay now, he will accuse you of spying on him.

Makes You Feel Like You Are Going Crazy

Crazy people have a strange quality to make people around them feel abnormal. If you feel that you are completely losing your marbles, then it probably is a sign that your boyfriend or girlfriend is psychotic.

Pathological Liars

Such people are pathological liars. They are unable to tell the the truth. Everything that comes out of their mouth is either manipulative or an instinctive lie.

Makes Scenes In Public

He or she is prone to throwing temper tantrums at the most inappropriate time and place. You can expect a showdown right in the middle of a shopping mall or a teary scene in a crowded restaurant.

Wants To Know What You Are Doing Every Moment

If you miss a single call from your partner, you will be called a cheater. If you are half an hour late from work, you are having an affair with your boss. Psychopaths always jump to extreme conclusions.

Threatens To Kill Themselves

If you get tired of all their scenes and tell them you are leaving, they will turn to blackmail. Your partner might threaten to kill himself or herself if you walk out of the relationship.

Gives You Sob Stories

Sociopaths and psychopaths always have some trauma in their past. They will give you sob stories about their parents being abusive or coming from a broken home.

Treats Animals/Strangers/Children Cruelly

You might be surprised to see that your partner is cruel to stray animals, kids or random strangers. You might be shocked that your partner runs over a stray dog purposely and then laughs about it.

Has No Remorse

Your partner might apologise to you but he or she never shows any remorse. Their 'sorry' always sounds empty and you are left with a feeling that something doesn't add up.

Your Family/Friends Find Him/Her Weird

Your near and dear ones watch out for you more than you do yourself. And they will be the only ones to give you the right feedback. If both your mom and best friend says that 'something is not right' about your partner, then he/she is probably crazy.

Makes You Feel Drained Emotionally

Instead of making you feel relaxed and happy, your partner makes you feel stressed all the time. Psychopaths are like parasites who thrive on human emotions. They drain you of emotional vitality and energy.
