She’s A Psychopath Opening Up About Why She Has A Boyfriend, Even Though She Can’t Feel Love
If you’re a psychopath, it means you have a severe lack of remorse, empathy, and even fear. Usually, a psychopath excels at being charming, and since nothing stresses them out, they can absolutely come across as, well, normal.
In movies, psychopaths are portrayed as these villainous monsters, full of vanity as well as aggression.
But there are psychopaths walking among us who are nothing like this in reality, and this young woman is providing a glimpse into how being a psychopath isn’t the same as what they portray in the movies.
A TikToker named Vic Path, who goes by @victhepath, is actually a psychopath, and she courageously gives viewers a peek into what her life is like on the platform.
One of my favorite questions she recently answered in a video is, “Why do you have a boyfriend if you don’t feel love? Like what is it that makes you want to be with him?”
It’s interesting to think about. How does somebody who can’t fall in love experience a relationship? Many of us only seek out significant others because we’re chasing love.
Vic first addresses this by explaining that many people express curiosity about how she can have a romantic interest, or even friends, considering she’s incapable of love, which she finds confusing.
She points out that you can certainly enjoy something or someone, even if that means you’re not in love with it or them.
“You don’t have to love everything that you like,” she says. “You don’t have to love everyone that you like.”

“A relationship doesn’t start off with two people being in love with each other; it starts off with two people enjoying each other and then grows into love.”
“A friendship doesn’t start out with two people loving each other; it starts out as two people becoming familiar with each other, beginning to like each other, and becoming friends.”
Vic adds that if you consider those situations and then remove that final step, falling in love, it’s the same.
So for her, even though she can’t love, she enjoys spending time with those closest to her. Vic compares this to chocolate – while she likes to eat that, she doesn’t love it.
Just like everyone else, there are certainly people Vic gets along with and vibes with more than others. That’s not different for her.
Circling back to just finding joy in another person’s company, to Vic, this is totally normal and something she does go through.
“I don’t think that’s abnormal at all,” Vic remarks. “I think that’s how all relationships start. You just never leave that starting phase of enjoying each other but not loving each other.”
“It’s fun to be around people you like. It’s fun to have friends. It’s fun to have a boyfriend. So why would I not?”
