Mirroring is at the heart of how sociopaths hook us and how they cause others to think were just like the sociopath. Not only do sociopaths intensely love bomb and praise us in the beginning, they mirror how we behave and how we react to experiences. The sociopath agrees with our parenting style, work ethic, family connections, and how we approach solving problems. In the beginning, we are never questioned or challenged these areas of our identity. We are led to believe that the sociopath is on the exact same page as we are when it comes to absolutely everything life throws at us. As victims, we dont realize that the sociopaths ability to agree with and mirror us simultaneously creates a bond of deep trust and commitment. We see the sociopath as someone who appears as we do, so we trust that sociopath intrinsically. As a result of this trust bond, we begin to reciprocate and naturally begin to mirror the sociopath. Mirroring the sociopath means we gradually take on the same shitty attitude the sociopath has about life and dealing with people. We end up behaving like a sociopath not realizing were behaving like a sociopath! To those ex-victims and survivors on the outside, we appear perfect for each other...two shitty people living out their shitty lives together. Two sociopaths, side-by-side. Perfect! Personally, I think sociopaths repel each other. Sociopaths have a knack for spotting other sociopaths better than anyone else can. And if two sociopaths were to get together, I think there would be so much fighting about control that they would each self-implode. They would never work out. What do you think? Do you think or have you ever thought that your ex has found his perfect match, because you have been led to believe, in your mind, that the new victim isnt really a victim at all, and is instead a sociopath, too? Namaste! ~Paula
