The Bundy Test, Are You Dating A Sociopath?

Are you or your friends dating a Sociopath? Let's call them "Bundy." Answer Yes or No. First, a sociopath is someone with charisma who can morph themselves into the perfect chameleon that fits your mold. They manipulate to get what they want; they are pathological liars, and they believe they are superior. Ted Bundy is a known sociopath, we will use his last name, and call them Bundy. I created a short quiz with typological behaviors a sociopath tends to build to control you, and if you answered yes to at least 5 or more, you are friends or worse dating a Sociopath. Furthermore, if you want to know more about this type of illness, if you think you need help, or just need more information the book " The Sociopath Next Door" is highly informative.
