I am an 18 year old male and I have been a pretty emotionally dead person for...well since my early childhood. And when I say dead I don't mean depressed or really down or anything of that nature. It's nearly impossible for me to feel anything genuine and I can only put a mask of fakeness on so I don't seem so far out. When I was in a psychology class I read about something called anti-social personality disorder and it almost disturbed me how similar the symptoms were to my own character. I've done enough to put myself away for the better half of my life and I haven't felt a shred of remorse or conscience. Anyways, I'm wondering if my lack of emotion is a cause of concern. Nothing brings me joy, pain, or sorrow and I can't even feel love for my own family anymore. NOTHING will make me feel anything and it bothers me. All I feel like is a body and a brain without a soul. Something is wrong with me but I don't know what. I'm a very intelligent person and all it seems I can do is succeed with material things like work while my relationships are built on false pretenses and emotions I never even felt but acted like I did. My question is: If there is anybody somewhat educated about this...what could be wrong with me? Do I have anti-social personality disorder?...and am I stuck with this? (link)

I believe that what you say is true. That this is obviously not a curse. One thing that i have discovered is that most of us might not even be dysfunctional. We are actually INTJ. this is something from birth and no it's not a disorder or illness in any form. It's a personality type.one of the sixteen personality types.one of the rarest which covers about only 4% of the general population.
INTJs think very logically and usually have a higher than average IQ.so most of us who start to lose more of their emotions basically go through that a little later but the observing and copying has been with us forever.Basically WE're all good liars.
Some of us actually have ASPD but it's not at a very critical state. actually the probability of us having both at the same time is very low so we are alot rarer than we think. we have the upperhand on almost everyone.
So i can conclude that we all are INTJs with ASPD.
The reason why it's so hard to differentiate between INTJ and ASPD because they usually clash.
So basically we are gifted.We wear masks. so take pride in our masks.

I just coined this term recently for our kind which is aniplex. It's latin for animus and multiplex. animus means intellect and emotion while multiplex means superior. There we have a term for ourselves now.
