2. Powers of persuasion & superficial charm

Another way to spot a sociopath is to look for signs that show they like having power. These people will often exhibit a superficial charm to impress others.

Sociopaths can be cunning, charming, and highly persuasive when they want others to help, agree with, and like them. These traits are superficial in nature and tend to fade the more often a person has to interact with them.

So, looking for these traits can help you spot a sociopath. They are very good at captivating others, making a good first impression, and persuading people to do things for them.
