What Happens When Two Dark Empaths Meet?
Channel: Psych2Go
Date: 2022-06-22

The term dark empath is a relatively new term to refer to someone who uses their empathy for manipulation. Sounds somewhat familiar to someone with narcissistic or psychopathic traits? A dark empath is someone who is manipulative but not necessarily malicious. We previously did a video covering what happens when a narcissist meets a dark empath. By request, we are doing one featuring the interactions between two dark empaths. Let us know if you would like us to do more series like this about the signs of dark empaths. Special thanks to our current team for this project:
