Social predators won't just focus on a person's needs but will often confide how much his or her emotions personally resonate with them, using what researchers Paul Babiak and Robert Hare refer to as a psychopathic fiction to cultivate false similarity.

Never mind the details (which are often fuzzy due to flaws of fabrication), it is heartening for them to realize that someone can relate.
