Did you know that Donald Trump is a Gemini?! To some of you, I probably have already made a point. If not, let us look at what makes a psychopath a psychopath.

Clinically speaking, experts describe psychopaths as:

Socially irresponsible individuals.

They have a high disregard for other people’s rights.

They can’t distinguish between right and wrong.

They have difficulty showing remorse.

They don’t understand the meaning of empathy.

They are pathological liars.

They are skilled manipulators.

I dated a Gemini for almost two years. If I could go back in time and undo it, I would, in a heartbeat. But this is a personal story, so it doesn’t apply to everyone. Nonetheless, some of you may be useful.

To be clear, I am talking here about the male version of Gemini only. I have several female Gemini friends and I can say with confidence that what follows doesn’t apply to them.

My Gemini wasn’t good looking; in fact, he was the opposite. But, since I was young and “the most naïve person on the planet” (in his own words), I thought that it is impossible to be that unsightly inside out. A high childhood consumption of Disney films played an important role in shaping my belief.

Unlike diagnosed psychopaths, Geminis are very social individuals. People enjoy their company. Although they don’t seek it (like Leos do), they know how to steal the spotlight by telling fascinating stories and engaging others in fun games. They leave a pleasant and memorable impression on a crowd. My Gemini is no different. For a long time, I couldn’t vent about him to any of our acquaintances, knowing full well that they will doubt my words, not his character. He was liked and respected.

My relationship with him was both personal and professional, which allowed me to notice psychopathic signs in both aspects of his life. Below I will give some examples of how these signs manifested.

PProfessionally, disregarding other people’s rights was very easy to notice. Knowing that the marketplace was overcrowded and competitive, he knew how to force his employees to work long hours and be afraid to complain about it. Long hours meant also having them on standby, day and night during week days and weekends.

HHe doesn’t distinguish between right and wrong. But he knows the concept exists, so he picks and chooses when to apply it according to his needs. He once bragged about stealing someone else’s client. He was so proud of himself for being a wit and persuasive talker. Until one day, he suspected a competitor had stolen one of his clients. And that was for him “wrong.” I spent two hours explaining to him that what he’s done previously is exactly what his competitor has done to him. Believe me, he could see how the two incidences were even similar.

HHe showed no sign of remorse for hurting or taking advantage of people. That was mainly because he didn’t know that what he’d done was wrong.

EEmpathy. Once, a friend’s cat gave birth to three kittens but refused to feed them. I took the surviving kitten, fed him, cared for him for two weeks. But the little thing didn’t make it. He died while I was at the office. I got very emotional and I couldn’t hold my tears. When he noticed what was going on, he threw the kitten in the garbage bin, looked in the eye and laughed.

HHe is deceitful and enjoys lying. He finds lying amusing, especially when he gets away with it. At the end of the relationship, I discovered that he was hitting on my female friends and acquaintances since the very beginning of our relationship.

HHe is calculating. He measures human exchange in terms of credit and debit. One of his family members once asked to borrow one of his cars. He lent him his spare car gladly. He explained to me later how he rationalized his decision: Since the guy was in great need, he is most likely to over appreciate the favor; this allows him to cash it later multiplied, at any time and in any other form. “I paid very little and I gained unconditional returns. This was a profitable transaction.” Mind games are his favorite hobby. Manipulating others into doing what he wants and needs with zero emotional attachment to them is astonishing.

AAnother manipulative tactic he used to exercise on those who cared about him was passive-aggressive behavior. He uses the silent treatment with his employees as well as with his close family members to make them think they had done something wrong or that they had harmed his feelings. He would do it even when he is the guilty party in a particular situation.

WWhen I ended the relationship, he thought I was harming him. He kept asking: how could I do this to him? In his mind, he had invested time in me and by leaving him I was preventing him from cashing out on his investment.

Of course, not all Gemini(s) are psychopaths. I am sure some of them are as sweet as pie. But, it won’t hurt to check for the above signs to ensure that the guy you’re dating or about to date doesn’t tick more than two boxes. If he does, then you’re advised to look for an exit as soon as possible. Unless you’re an Aquarian woman, in this case you may very well be able to beat him at his own game(s). Go for it!
