One of the great things about dating a psychiatrist is that he diagnoses anyone who is mean to me with a mental illness.
He says that various indications make it crystal clear to him that the man who nearly beat me up and stabbed me on the subway had antisocial personality disorder–in other words, that he was a sociopath.
In the future I think I will restrict myself to touching only those people who clearly wish to be touched. I have certainly encountered enough of those to suspect such a policy will still keep me busy.
