have you heard of the dark triad personality and if not today is your lucky day because we are
going to dive in deep about all of those buzzwords that you will hear around a psychology office
the dark triad personality consists of three distinct personality traits
narcissism mercavianism and psychopathy which all define under the definition of manipulating
exploiting and using others and refusing to understand moral high grounds and having
grandiose self-interest specifically we are talking about the dark empath today which
is the most dangerous personality type and it probably sounds crazy to have empathy but then to
be dark and twisted and devious at the same time well let's find out my name is anna and stay tuned
one of the biggest traits that you are going to notice in a dark empath is that they make fun
of other people they feel it's fine to have that horrible manipulative humor they would joke and
they will laugh at videos that are hurtful towards someone else because in their eyes this is a great
form of entertainment now it actually stems from the feeling of superiority over people that are
considered to be a lot less valuable than the dark empath so some of the humor that you will notice
is them laughing at those very dark memes or laughing when someone is vulnerable in a situation
also racist things i'm sure you can think about some nasty things that they would find very funny
they are always guilt-tripping a dark empath is known for their intense guilt-tripping because
they can understand people's emotions and what they are going through they actually are able to
use this to their advantage emotional manipulation due to their ability to understand how people feel
you can actually sense them using it to their advantage they will always manage to get one
over on you and manipulate you because they can really get inside your head you can expect this
person to persuade others easily and they know for sure how to easily and quickly manipulate people
to get their own way they achieve great things in life the dark empath is able to connect with
others on such a deep level that they can use this in a nice way or in a negative way
to go where they want to be in life they are hard workers and they make quick decisions in stressful
moments which naturally they are rewarded for which makes them great leaders and because they
know what to do in these stressful times it means they are much orientated to achieve their goals
the grandiose narcissism a dark empath has subtle correlations to a narcissist however they would
not be fully classified or diagnosed as the full narcissist however you will notice there's some
similarities the high self-esteem the scent of personal superiority over everyone and indeed
they will find entitlement over everybody else you may notice these are the types of people that
use big words in conversations to appear smarter than they actually are and they are very quick to
exploit others for their own gain you can most definitely expect them to brag about something
expensive they have purchased or continuously talk about the amazing things that they have done
they prefer to lead you can naturally expect this person to resonate to be the talker in the friend
group they are the person in a work project that always delivers the talking presentations
and they naturally have a yearning to be powerful therefore they feel that they can
accompany this in their job role by being a leader now that's not necessarily a bad thing
because a great leader is one that is able to get people to all work together and finish a goal with
ease and that is exactly what they do they are extroverts because of their power and able to lead
others they are naturally great at handling their social skills they are able to entertain everyone
around them and they never feel the need to hold back they are happy to express what they want they
can join in and all conversations however at times they are known to say the wrong things or they may
say something that could hurt someone for example they may ask insensitive questions to gain power
over someone's emotional state so that they can consider themselves to be maintaining that
leadership role in the group their natural ability to understand the empathy of those around them
means that they can inspire which is a good thing to achieve more and to bring out the
best in themselves so it's kind of good but also bad they can't handle criticism well
just like narcissists who go into a complete meltdown mode and self-destruct the people's
livelihoods around them when you trigger them you can expect the dark empath to do exactly the same
they get so upset when they hear negative things said about them they just can't control themselves
they can be impulsive you will notice the dark empath is someone that is very well put together
but they do have moments of extreme instability where they just live for the whole yolo life which
makes you question the person you are talking to they could be diagnosed with borderline
personality disorder borderline personality sufferers are thought to also be considered
dark empaths too they strive to achieve an end goal of extreme stability in their relationships
and due to their empathetic ways they can manipulate people to get what they want for
example in the middle of an argument this person may break down in tears and elicit a sad emotion
to make the other person forget about the argument and tend to the needs of the crying person
their aggression shows when they are treated unfairly in regards to the other people in the
dark triad who are very aggressive in nature the dark empath is actually a lot less aggressive than
most of them however when they are triggered they regress into that very antagonistic nature
which means they respond automatically by just seeing red however you will notice they don't
seem to care about other people if they are treated unfairly so you can expect that dark
empath to be passive aggressive to make lots of accusations without supporting the facts first
they will also invalidate other people's emotions if they don't agree with them in a bid to keep all
the energy and attention focused on themselves they are not great listeners yes they can
empathize with you and if they see a game in your emotions where they can one-up themselves
they will listen and you will feel very understood but there's always a gain to it
they are not a consistently good listener you will notice that sometimes they just start talking over
you and they are so desperate to talk about only their needs in the conversation that you just feel
like well what am i doing just go talk into the mirror they lack self-awareness these types of
people are unable to understand how their actions can sometimes be at fault because
they assume that because they are so incredibly good at understanding people and their actions
it's always their way or the highway and no one can reason with them they struggle to understand
that sometimes their actions cause a negative emotion in someone else thank you for getting to
