To study psychopathy is to realize that, although we are all human beings, we do not think and feel the same way because we do not function according to the same standards of moral conscience, ethics and honor. Psychopathy goes beyond the categories of gender and sex. It is, therefore, an individual condition, of multifactorial cause and can be fed through social, cultural and political structures. In this article, we chose to analyze the love relationships between integrated psychopathic men or so-called sub clinics (narcissists, wicked and Machiavellian) and their female partners (complementary). An emotional relationship, woven and spun, along lines of seduction, enchantment, manipulation, humiliation, gaslighting, contempt and annihilation. It is under the nefarious consequences of this roller coaster of contradictory feelings that these women (active victims of violent psychological vampirism) arrive at the office, in order to break away from the inexorable fate of this deadly love encounter.

Keywords : Toxic love relationships; Psychopathy; Criminal psychology; Psychoanalysis.
