>They ARE predators, I've read a thesis where they insist all cluster Bs are essentially the same illness, Persistent Predatory Disorder. Sociopaths kill, Narcissists, Histrionics, and Borderlines cheat for the thrill of it.

Im nta but, That must be a shit thesis, or an outdated one or both. For loads of reasons too. Let’s lay those out:
- You are statistically more likely to be killed by someone who is not cluster B.
- You are statistically more likely to be cheated on by someone who isn’t cluster B.
This is because cluster B’s make up an estimate of 1 ~ 5% of a given population. Honestly the number changes depending on who you ask lol. Point is, you’re more likely to get killed/cheated by someone else than a cluster B, that’s just realism.

That said, proportionally speaking, are cluster B’s more likely to commit crime, perjury, infidelity? Yes. That’s indisputable. Does that mean all cluster B’s will? No. And you’d be a bit silly to believe they do.

Because those disorders are not determining a proclivity for crime/sin/evil. That isn’t how they are identified or diagnosed. They are known because of their poor impulse, poor emotional regulation, blunted or flat empathy, and their antisocial feelings towards the ‘other’. Other meaning, friends, family, lovers, etc. This ranges from feeling like everyone is stupid/beneath them, everyone abandons them, or everyone is sub-human, whatever that may be.

What they do with those feelings varies from cluster B to cluster B. Some will lash out at others, some will deceive or carelessly and severely be inconsiderate, others just straight up commit self harm instead, and take all the pent up feelings out on themselves.

This is why there is ‘typical’ BPD and ‘atypical’ BPD. The latter one is usually your suicidal self harmer, not likely to cheat, actually most likely to be cheated on and has a habit for dating narcissistic types often. A self abuser through and through.

Are mentally ill or bpd demons worth dating for the simple fact that they love you deeper, despite the obvious crazy drawback?
