7 Traits of a Dark Empath - The Most Dangerous Personality Type

Here are seven traits of a dark empath, the most dangerous personality type. Can you be an empathic psychopath? Do compassionate narcissists exist? According to studies, some people may have certain Psychopathic, Machiavellian, or Narcissistic traits who also exhibit dark empathy. So, yes, it is possible to possess a blend of empathic traits and dark triad traits. Dark empaths certainly exist and may account for as much as one-fifth of the general population - however, additional research on a broader scale is needed before such conclusions can be drawn.

This personality type describes people who appear cold but are also kind and compassionate. However, these individuals experience what’s called cognitive empathy. Meaning, while they can understand someone's emotional state very well, instead of bonding with them as ordinary empaths do, they usually exploit it. Basically, emotional manipulation comes naturally to these folks. And that spells trouble!

A dark empath can even be more dangerous than a typical dark triad type, because the dark empath may pull you in closer and inflict more harm as a result. Of course, this doesn’t mean that every dark empath will harm others emotionally - but they can.

Their kindness is their weakness.Once they know you're abusing it, run for your life.

Being a dark empath is what happens when an empath has delt with to much narcissistic abuse and falls from grace essentially. I would know.

Being a true empath is a curse to you but a blessing for everyone around you.

You can be a dark Empath and use your powers for good. It’s all about balance. It’s not necessarily a bad thing if you “know thyself” and work to better yourself on an emotional level. My dark traits only come out when they are needed, and I know they are present in my personality. I know how to keep them in check. For example; just because someone is a master at hand to hand combat doesn’t mean they are going to go around beating random people up. I love people and want the best for all and don’t enjoy manipulating. It’s a tool for good when dealing with truly selfish, problematic and evil people.

I'm an empath who used to be best friends with a narcissist ... It was a very toxic, codependent and destructive relationship until a light switch flipped on and I went no contact. I barely escaped with my sanity intact.

I am a dark empath but I never use this type of humor against weaker people unless they have done something to me!

[michelleparsons]

I met a dark empath. He changed my life forever. He never harmed me. I broke my own heart by loving his darkness and expecting more

[runeburnmtg]

As a person with schizophrenia, this hits deep. I would say I am an empath most of the time, but only use my dark side when pushed to. I have a pretty good grip on it now. Just remember there is always light at the end of the tunnel and if you need help to get there then use it.

[youngblessed]

I just realized that I am a dark empath by everything in this video I’ve done and find it easy to persuade people and understand people emotionally.

[xoDeaDZonEox]

The more I learn about the mind and personality traits and other things related, the more I am learning about myself. Being honest with myself and not just picking and choosing based on what agrees with my ego has helped me narrow it down a lot more why I display certain types of behavior. The Dark Triad definitely explained a lot to me, and now this. This is the closest to describing my full set of traits more than anything else I have researched, this wasn't a journey I began to share with the world as some kind of badge of honor, but this 1 is me

[christinacatalano]

It comes down to being able to choose when to go dark. At the core, the darkness is usually engaged when we are in defense mode or have had enough.

To whoever reads this, I wish you health and success!

Dark empathy feels like a constant battle with one’s self. The empathic side wants to be nice and kind and feel for people. But the other side wants to use the information for personal gain. I tried it hardcore only once and it scared the shit out of me how easy it was. I won’t lie it comes to surface every once in awhile (not majorly) and it helps with certain situations. But I try to use the dark side for good whenever I can. I remember a horrible co worker who was hurting people and it pissed me off. So I used my skills to get close find out information all as I smiled and seemed to be on there side until the time came where I got all the info I needed and told my boss how he was treating people and what he secretly thought. It can be used for good but you have to be extremely careful with it.

[jessicalimberis]

Ugh... I'm pretty sure I'm both dark and light.. I mostly choose the dark side when I was a child as a survival skill.. I am humbled now and it really does hurt me to hurt people... glad you made this video it's kinda like conformation towards my journey to spiritual growth thanks for sharing..

[dangerestrada]

I use the darkness when people try to push me over after opening up

[edrowe]

Bullied from the first day of school by red neck larva all through the 70's and 80's. Only child to parents in their 40's when born. Taken advantage of by every one. Married twice to Narcissists. Last girl friend was the worst. I really don't like people. Every one is going to hurt me no one is worth it. I want to be left alone.

[karenwade]

My mother was a Dark Empath, she balanced her behavior by acting out obsessive, compulsive religious beliefs that actually triggered her Dark Triad. After surviving childhood, as a result of my Near Death Experience, I found a way to cope. Being an Empath myself, and with God's help, I could recognize what was going on with her. It was pretty much like living in Hell, but I had the full armour and protection from God, as he promised when I was with him.

[PurePoison]

We all came here innocent and pure but we got corrupted and contaminated by the evil that is here.When you fight demons you have to be careful not to become one.
