<p>I'm not very up on Dexter, the show nor character but I have the
general outline. I often think that my awareness of lying (with
words, actions, affect) as a *choice* put me on the edge between
being a sociopath and being "far from it"... had I felt that
lying was a necessity or in some way ends/means justified I could
easily have put whatever talents I might have for persuasion or
misdirection in acutely anti/a/mis/dys-social modes. </p>
<p>Or maybe I do and am in denial... and those who I haven't drawn
into my web of lies simply don't see it either. Being human is
tricky... </p>
