You don't have to freak out. About 5% of people can have psychopathic tendencies. Psychopathy is one of the most dramatized mental disorder in films/media, the definition has been manipulated for a long time.

Psychopathy is not recognized psychological/psychiatric disorder, does not occur in a binary way. It is possible to have minor/more moderate psychopathic tendencies. We can't make a good test that can identify a person as a psychopath on 100%.
Most used tool for identifying psychopaths is the psychopathy checklist-revised PCL-R (20 points):

Many psychopaths have great success in politic, media, law, big buisness and being salespeople ... thanks to their ruthless nature. If we know that why so many people like them?

Now we can look on few subjective examples, ask your self how many points from the list (under picture) match to this people:
