How do you know if you’re dating a sociopath?
Donna Andersen, a South Jersey author, has published her first book called, “Love Fraud n How marriage to a sociopath fulfilled my spiritual plan.” She will appear at Borders Books, 601 Nassau Park Blvd., Princeton, NJ on Oct. 30 from 1 to 3 p.m.
Andersen will sign copies of her book and make a brief presentation entitled, “How to know if you’re dating a sociopath.”
Andersen learned the hard way. She dated, and then married, a man who turned out to be a sociopathic con artist—James Montgomery, originally of Sydney, Australia. Montgomery took a quarter-million dollars from her, cheated with at least six women during a two-and-a-half year relationship, had a child with one of them, and ten days after Andersen left him, married the mother of the child. It was the second time he committed bigamy.
Andersen’s story is so compelling that it was selected to be the premiere episode of a new show on the Investigation Discovery network called “Who the (Bleep) Did I Marry?”, which aired in August and again in September.
Andersen’s mission now is educating people about sociopaths—and no, they are not all deranged serial killers. Experts estimate that there may be 3 million to 12 million sociopaths in the United States, and most of them are not in jail. She launched a website, Lovefraud.com, in 2005, which now averages more than 100,000 visits a month. Readers consider it the most helpful source on the Internet for information about sociopaths. The Lovefraud Blog has evolved into a healing community for those who have been targeted by these human predators.
After graduating summa cum laude from Syracuse University with a degree in magazine journalism, Andersen started her career as the first editor of Atlantic City Magazine. She then founded Donna Andersen Copywriting Inc. in Atlantic City, a boutique advertising company that produced newsletters, brochures, websites and other marketing materials.
