Am I a sociopath? I kinda wonder?
I'm trying to figure this out since it dawned on me today. I think I might be a sociopath. I absolutely can not connect with someone's feelings. I manipulate people just for fun all the time and when I'm done with them I dump them just like that. I also as a kid had been in trouble with the police, stole a car, egged my principle's car too. I always have to be on top and in control, I can't stand coming in second place. When I see a dead animal on the road I have no reaction as if I don't care at all. When people I know have had someone die in their lives, I've had to literally walk away because I think it's funny. I also have violent thoughts involving murder and sexual deviance where I dominate everything including in the bedroom in real life.
So what do you think? Do you think I'm a sociopath? I kinda think I am. It's terrible when I don't react with an emotion when someone is sad and it causes a fight. How am I supposed to know how to act?
12 AnswersPsychology9 years agoHow does ASE check work experience?
I'm an auto mechanic and have over 10 years of experience however I've never worked at a shop "officially." I'd fill in or do things on the side and it wasn't until recently that I've decided to get my ASE certs.
How is it that ASE checks experience? I've easily got the experience beat however working officially for a shop for 2 years on the books at the ripe age of 30 isn't going to cut the bills. Not now, have a family at this point =) That's why I work as a Certified Surgical Technologist and an auto mechanic.
I worked for a friend in the early 2000's for over 2 years and have worked solo ever since then and a few stints under the table. What are my options is any?
1 AnswerMaintenance & Repairs9 years agoHow should I feel about my girlfriend being in my opinion way too close to her mother?
Ok, so here's the scoop. I'm 28, she's 29, we're lesbian and have been together for like a year and a half now. I work full time and pay for most everything since I have a better paying job and she works for 12 bucks an hour at a daycare center. That in itself is stressful to me because I have to do the most to stay afloat. I myself do not have a family to fall back on in case times get tough and have learned at an early age to take care of myself and solve my own problems but I can't solve this one. Am I a selfish b****?
Here's what my girlfriend does regularly: Text mom after 10pm at night daily miniscule things, goes over to her mom's condo at least twice a week leaving me home alone until after 9pm if I'm not in class, stays the night over there (so she says) out of random.
From a psych stand point, her mother displays some behaviors that I would consider not normal. She's attached herself to this dog that I can't stand for the life of me, I tolerate it while I'm over there. This dog for what ever reason can not stay in a cage for longer then like 2 hours or it has to be taken to doggy daycare which is 27 bucks a pop. If I'm over there and we ask for privacy, her mother is in and out of the room SEVERAL times, never sits down to relax, it's beyond annoying, I literally hate it. She's entirely waaaaaay too emotional. The grandma is crazy too who's not from this country and claims to have weird medical issues that don't exist and pops narcotics on a daily basis, her mother's sister is a drug addict lesbian with bi polar disorder who abuses the disability system to make money since she failed out of life, and her mother is disabled true, but not to where she can't do anything and I honestly truely 100% believe she plays it to get my girlfriend to do things for her because she's too lazy to go out and make friends. Her mother refuses to work, pops narcotics on a daily basis like the rest of them, ask for my girlfriend or I to get her pot sometimes and in general is a real pain in the ***.
My own internal issue is when I was 18, my parent's said to all us kids, when you graduate high school you either go to college, pay rent, or get out. We all got out and we knew when we left there that there was NO going back home. Everyone of us are successful. My girlfriend was the only child and she grew up in an environment that portrayed her father as a terrible person although there are two sides to that story. I think he's ok but we'll never know. We do know the mother's a quack and who knows what the average person would have considered doing around her 29 years ago when my girlfriend was born.
I feel as though my girlfriend requires the approval of her mother for everything which to me is sick. She's 29....At college age, we all for the most part started to look to our own and think on our own two feet, thinking for ourselves and making our own lives not looking backwards all the time looking to see if mother agrees or supports. It's a part of growing up in that respect that we leave the nest and move on into the world and make it our own.
I think a lot of her problem is her mother said to her growing up, "It's just you and me, our team" and smothered the hell out of her. Which after my girlfriend became an adult, obviously that team is supposed to change although I don't think it has.
She wants to get married and although it's legal in this state, I won't do it. The reason being her mother. I don't want to risk her mother having legal leverage to move into my house by my girlfriend when she runs out of money or gets too old.
My girlfriend could make a great career somewhere with her teaching degree but insist on living around that woman and never making any real money. She has no retirement, she's overweight and already has back issues, she absolutely will not grow as a person because of her bizarre attachment to her mother. What am I supposed to do with that? Am I selfish or wrong about this? I kind of feel so but I'm really not sure at this point. I spent all Friday night (last night) alone while she stiffed me for her mother...again.
It sounds harsh, but my girlfriend will in fact be a whole lot better after her mother dies. I truely believe that. Someone who requires such an odd attachment that's a little toooooo much to their childhood disciplinarian would benefit by getting a healthy dose of reality and growing up a bit. Maybe she's immature?
I just can't stand it, not one bit. I loath holidays when I have to see this woman too. I intentionally took call for thanksgiving this year so that I didn't have to get exposed to it. I'm going to argue on Christmas because although I'm not oddly close to my family, they still mean something to me too. However I don't text my mother on a daily or nightly basis, we cal
1 AnswerOther - Family & Relationships9 years agoCan somebody help me find my 1984 Ford Mustang I sold in 2004?
Hi my name is Brenna, and I'm looking for my old 84 Mustang I used to own that my mother sold when I was serving with the Marines back in 2004. Any information on it would be helpful. Even if you own it, at least I'll know it's still on the road and would love to know who owns it. Even if it's in rough shape, I'm the kinda chick who works on cars and would enjoy rebuilding it =)
I carfaxed it and the car was last titled and had a loan put on it on 05/26/2005 in Arthur, Il and the title number was X5146178021. The VIN is 1FABP28M6EF226710.
I know the car isn't in a junk yard and it wasn't salvaged or reported flooded. I also won't stop until I find it. Please, if you know who owns it or it's whereabouts, please let me know.

I have 30 pictures of it if you'd like to see them. It was white, black stripe on the hood and t-top. Really miss that car and I'm going to school in January, the only girl in the Auto Tech Program at our local college lol.
3 AnswersBuying & Selling9 years agoWhat type of breast implant would be right for me if I'm an auto mechanic?
Im a 27 year old girl who's changing professions to be an auto mechanic. I know from working on my own cars, that there is a lot of lifting and pulling, tires can weight 50 lbs and more. For sure, I'll be working in a heavier environment for hopefully 40 hours a week or so. What would be the right implant for someone partaking in that kind of work? I've read about silicone and I've read about saline. I'd like them under the muscle for sure. Part of me thinks I should just forget about getting the implants because of my chosen profession but if I can get any larger then my A's on my 5'11 frame body I'd be really satisfied =)
4 AnswersWomen's Health10 years agoLes couple, is it normal for her to face the other way, wear clothes to bed after a year of sleeping naked?
Ok, let me rephase this question. My girlfrend and I have been together for a year. She and I have always slept naked unless it was around the time of the monthly cycle lol. Recently, she lays down and immdiately lays with her back to me which is something she's never really done before, and without kissing me too. I HAVE to be the one to kiss her and I HAVE to be the one to say "I love you" first. Is that a sign? Also, when she lays with clothes on, to me, that is a universal sign for "She's not interested in sex."
The reason I'm asking, is because her actions tell me she's not interested and she complains to me that I'm not making a move and that we aren't making love enough. I say, turn around and face me if you want some and take off you clothes! To wear clothes out of nowhere to me is like a forcefield. Somehow she sees the lack of sex in a whole two weeks as my fault? You figure it out? Always naked......now wearing clothes.........I'm dumbfounded.
What do you all think?

3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoHow do I make sure I'm not in my fathers will?
My father and I don't get along and I haven't talked to him in so long that I don't remember. Anyway, he's getting up in the years and I know he's developed some debt. Is there a way I can legally protect myself from anything that has to do with his Will or his debt? I don't want any of his personal prosessions and I wouldn't want the hassle of taking them 2000 miles back to my house. Honestly, I don't feel like I should have to go down for his nonsense when he's such a prick.

I'm a male to female transexual who's currently legally married as a male to a female. What occurs in the legal spectrum when I become legally female? Does that mean the marriage is annuled? We're getting a divorce anyway.
6 AnswersMarriage & Divorce1 decade agoHow do I get started as an adult escort?
Hello everyone. I'm a 25y/o mtf transexual woman who's thought long and hard about entering the adult industry. I've dabbed a little into the phone sex portion of the industry but I'd really like to become a full time escort. Some of the escorts I've seen online have websites, phone numbers, places they meet clients, and are well versed in safety. I'd really like to know how to get started with this career and if anyone has any experience with this type of work, I'd like them to maybe consider mentoring me. Honestly, I can't seem to find anyone out there to mentor me since this isn't the kind of job my high school guidance counselor told me about! lol
