Unfortunately, sociopathies are character disorders, and cannot be cured, at least by any technique known at this time. What you can do is try and set a specific set of "rules" of behavior a true sociopath can learn by rote. If this is done well, it can ease a lot of the difficulties the sociopathic client experiences.

A sociopath is someone who lacks the ability to care for the feelings of others. This can make a sociopath very dangerous, because if you do not care for the feelings of others, it's more easy to hurt or exploit people. Sociopaths generally don't feel remorse when they hurt someone else.

^this person didn't actually answer the question. One theory is environmental, that if someone is neglected or abused from the time they're born, they will never learn how to make connections with other people. As they get older, they may exploit this phenomenon, knowing that they are not hindered by the moral mores of other people.

Another theory is biological/organic. Studying the brains of "sociopaths" has revealed both a lack of communication between the amygdala and the frontal lobe, as well as a significantly smaller amygdala itself. Hope that helps :)

Is a sociopath capeable of falling in love?

Of course they can!

And everybody know that sex is a powerful weapon of control, and control/abuse/manipulation are fundamental to a sociopath's existence.
