A sociopath is a term used to describe someone who has antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). People with ASPD can't understand others' feelings. They'll often break rules or make impulsive decisions without feeling guilty for the harm they cause.
People with ASPD may also use ``mind games'' to control friends, family members, co-workers, and even strangers. They may also be perceived as charismatic or charming.
