I am not making this up. My fiance was abused in every way as a child.

What would you do if you fell in love with a sociopath ?

You will regret the day you marry him. They are so into themselves that it's not funny. They blame everyone else for their problems and believe they are the right and everyone else is wrong. Been there and done it. They can't stay with one relationship long because of the person they are with is doing them wrong.

I'm not sure I understand your statement fully. People that are sociopaths are people that, in short, have no regard for the well-being of others especially in terms of emotions. That's not a person that is easy to fall in love with. I mean, having sympathy for what led them to their sociopathic views is reasonable and commendable, but when you translate the sympathy into "love" you are not looking to do yourself any favors. You can love someone as a person without loving them as a life partner.
Now to answer your question directly- If I fell in love with a sociopath(which I have done before) I would get professional help(which I have also done) to find out why I confuse sympathy with love (in that sense of love.) Loving yourself is the only thing you can really do. And for many of us that have grown up in difficult situations, that's a long learning process. You have to remember, it takes "normal people" 18 years and then some to learn how to love themselves. That's really what we call adulthood.
Oh yeah, and I'd put the relationship on hold immediately until that processing of helping yourself is complete.

The definition of a sociopath is in Google --- look up "antisocial behavior disorder" -- the correct term for this mental condition now.. One of those has a list of symptoms... You won't be in love with the guy after you read them, assuming that he is one to begin with.

Prepare yourself for a life of misery and do not have any children.
Better yet, leave him, get over it, and find a healthy relationship.
It's really sad that some people aren't capable of having a good relationship with another person. YOU don't have to throw your life away just to help or rescue someone who can't have a satisfying adult relationship with another person.
Believe me, I've been there.

YOU HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH THE "GOOD" SIDE OF A PERSON THAT IS NVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO RECOVER FROM BEING A SOCIOPATH. WHETHER YOU LOVE HIM OR NOT, HE WILL CONTINUE DO FOLLOW A PATH WHICH OS NOT GOING TO BE HEALTHY FOR EITHER OF YOU. BEING IN LOVE - I AM GLAD YOU HAVE FOUND THAT. I CAN ONLY SADLY TELL YOU THAT YOUR LOVE IS NOT GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO "HEAL" AND/OR CHANGE HIM. GOOD LUCK, I WISH YOU MUCH FAITH THROUGH ALL OF THIS.

My husband was married to one. After multiple adulteries, he finally divorced her.
