“My daughter received an antisocial personality disorder diagnosis at 18… but she has no plans to tell her boyfriend.”
A concerned dad has posted to Reddit with what users are calling one of the most difficult predicaments the community has ever seen.
And we have to agree with them.
For a lot of us, our dads have been known to help us out of many a sticky situation. They’re usually the ones we go to when we need a little life coaching.
But for this particular father, who seems as though he has a strong relationship with his 25-year-old daughter, it’s someone outside the family that may need his guidance – his daughter’s boyfriend.
How to spot a psychopath in the workplace. (Post continues below.)
Posting to Reddit’s “Am I the a**hole” page, the man explained that his daughter is harbouring a “dark secret” from her boyfriend, and plans to keep it that way despite his advice.
The secret he’s referring to? His daughter is a “diagnosed sociopath”, with “disturbing” behavioural tendencies and a self-admitted deep lack of empathy. While she’s been managing her condition with clear improvements for many years with the support of her family, the father is tossing up whether to tell the boyfriend himself – especially as he suspects he’s about to propose.

If you yourself think you should Tell the boyfriend, then you have your answer and you keep your morals, but if they get married and you didn't tell him , keep your mouth shut for the rest of your life, she obviously enjoys having this bloke around, lots of women don't love their fiancé's they are just not as honest as your daughter is with you, I've just decided, No Don't Tell Him.
I’m in exact same situation but not close to her fiancé. She got pregnant on purpose to keep him.
