My boyfriend (ex boyfriend) was locked up for 10 years. were together for the last 2 years of his sentence and i stood by him when no one else did. When he got out i immediately noticed a change in him. we were good for about a month until we had an argument atthe movie theatre and after that he did a complete 180 and turned cold, cruel and vindictive ( distance, irritability, disrespectful hurtful words, no affection etc) all the way up to the bitter end where we got into another argument, he humiliated me when i tried to reconcile (didnt want me to touch him, talk to him etc) and then broke up with me. After the break-up a mutual friend who was also locked up with him asked him why he broke up with me and how could he be so cruel to the person that helped you and stood by him at his lowest point in life. He told him i was beautiful, educated and loyal. My exes response was "man, i can do better than that" He said my ex thinks he is prettier than me. I dont understand how all of a sudden wasn't good enough! Advice/Opinions plz

I imagine him being locked up for a decade has something to do with it. Have you ever seen one of those NatGeo documentaries with female officers in it? No matter how much of a heifer she is she'll get hooted and hollered at because the men there don't see women for years on end.

 

It's hard to be picky in prison, unless you're a serial killer, those always seem to have a large female following.

He sounds like a sociopath, and I mean that it a purely psychological sense of the word.

 

Many, many people in prison have anti-social personality disorder (sociopath). These people are born without the capacity to feel emotions, like love, care, appreciation, empathy, etc. Many of these sociopaths are manipulates who use people to get what they want; human beings are nothing more than a means to an end for these people. This is what allows them to commit serious crimes.

 

That's how they were born, it's a defect and there's no changing them. I'm not saying this is the case with him, but it's a real possibility. Most of these people are never diagnosed because they simply don't care.

 

Whether he is or whether he is not a sociopath, you should run far away and stay away. Don't wrap your head around all the questions, just move on.
