Number 3: They tend to speak quietly and slowly.

Psychopaths usually speak slowly and softly for several reasons. One possible reason for this could be related to how their brain works. Psychopaths are known to lack empathy, right? And that could explain why they’re less likely to show emotions, which is why they end up speaking slower and quieter than others. Speaking in this manner also gives them a sense of control and power. It allows them to keep their listeners on the edge of their seats, waiting for something big to happen. The soft voice also adds to their charm and makes them seem more trustworthy. Moreover, it’s a sneaky strategy.

By using this communication style, they can easily plant ideas or suggestions in other people’s minds. For instance, they can make their claims more likely to be accepted or believed, even if they’re not really true or beneficial. They can even amp up the charm at the same time to better manipulate others to do their bidding.

But, as you know, people with psychopathic tendencies tend to lack empathy, which means you’re less likely to catch them yawning when they see you do it.
