We have all been warned about evil people at least once in our lives. We have seen many cartoons and movies with people who have hidden intentions that want to do harm to others. However, dealing with such people in your everyday life is something different because it is very difficult to discover their motives at first.
These are the 8 signs that can show you whether you are dealing with an evil person
1. Epicaricacy
This is an ancient Greek word which means “someone who derives sadistic happiness from others’ misfortune”. This is very common among sadistic people who only care about their own lives. They see life as competition and they enjoy watching other people suffer.
2. They resent other people’s success
This is very similar with the first point, being envious of other people’s success is another common trait of evil people. They will never be excited or happy when someone else succeeds, and they will feel insecure about their own achievements.
3. They are always trying to interfere with your thought process
An evil person will try hard to interfere with your clear stream of thoughts by manipulating your senses. They will try to find a way to lead you down the wrong path. This type of psychological manipulation is the reason for about 23% of the world’s rate of depression. Try to avoid such people in order to preserve your mental wellbeing.
4. They hate animals
There is a difference between not being a fan of keeping animals and pets and to be cruel or hate them. An evil person will often try to hurt or kill animals just for fun which is anything by normal behavior. This is especially alarming in children which is a warning sign of possible dangerous behavior in the future.
5. Trust your instincts
When we encounter a new situation our brain is alert and it is trying hard to pick up signals from the surroundings. Even if we are communicating with people at that time, our subconscious is still active and scanning for possible alerts. This means if you feel there is something wrong about a certain person, don’t suppress your intuition.
6. They have zero sense of repentance
When things go wrong for evil people they will act weirdly unlike regular people who never repent for a mistake. Evil people are just too proud to admit they were wrong and they will try to preserve their image of flawlessness often by blaming others for their actions or the outcome.
7. Feigning personality
Evil people don’t have strong personalities and will often change their behavior in order to fit a certain relationship. It is very difficult to discover their true colors and true nature.
