She elaborated on her approach: “At first, however, if I find someone attractive I can become any person that they want, girls or guys but mostly girls. I feel like I don’t get enough credit for sitting there listening to people’s problems; it has literally nothing to do with me, and I am investing in it, and nobody seems to be giving me the gratitude for that.”
Batra-Matheson also noted, “Charisma is pretty easy to come by when you don’t have a moral compass,” adding that she can “just say what people wanna hear.”
in a previous video, she described her view of relationships as transactional, stating, “All relationships are transactional.” She explained her dating approach: “If I’m going on a date, I tend to view the other person as an object,” adding that once the other person begins to “humanize themselves,” she gets bored and “discards them.” She revealed that she’s been “working through these toxic thought patterns” with a psychiatrist since her ASPD diagnosis.
Batra-Matheson also highlighted differences in how she approaches dating men and women, emphasizing the importance of physical appearance in her choices. Her experiences offer a complex and frequently enough unsettling glimpse into the challenges and complexities of living with ASPD.

Understanding ASPD and Kanika Batra-Matheson’s perspective
Senior Editor: Kanika, thank you for joining us today. Your videos have sparked some intense conversations about ASPD and relationships. Can you tell us a little about your experience and what motivated you to share your story online?
Kanika Batra-Matheson: I’ve always been different, and honestly, for a long time, I didn’t understand why. After my ASPD diagnosis, things started to make sense. I realized a lot of my behaviours and thought patterns were directly related to the disorder. I wanted to share my experience because there are so many misconceptions about ASPD. People frequently enough see it as purely villainous, but it’s more nuanced than that.
Senior Editor: You’ve mentioned that you view relationships as transactional.Could you elaborate on that?
Kanika Batra-Matheson: I see relationships as a kind of exchange. I give somthing, they give something. For a long time, that “something” for me was often charm, attention, or the things people wanted to hear. It wasn’t always genuine, because honestly, forming deep emotional connections was arduous for me.
Senior Editor: In one of your videos, you discussed approaching dating like viewing someone as an “object.” How has your perspective evolved since then?
Kanika batra-Matheson: That was definitely a blunt way of putting it, but it reflects how detached I used to feel. As working with my psychiatrist, I’m trying to understand empathy and build healthier connections. It’s a difficult process, but I’m committed to it.
Senior Editor: How do you think your diagnosis affects your dating life specifically?
Kanika Batra-Matheson: It makes things complicated. Physical attraction is crucial to me, and I’m often drawn to people based on how they look. Maintaining interest long-term can be a challenge, though.
Senior Editor: You mentioned using your charisma to gain attention. Do you feel like this was a manipulative tactic?
Kanika Batra-Matheson: At the time, it wasn’t conscious manipulation. I didn’t think about hurting people’s feelings; I was more focused on getting what I wanted from the interaction. Looking back, I can see how that could be perceived as manipulative, and I regret any pain I caused.
Senior Editor: What message would you like to share with people who are struggling to understand ASPD?
Kanika Batra-Matheson: ASPD is complex. It’s not an excuse for bad behavior, but it’s important to remember that people with this disorder often struggle with empathy, emotional regulation, and impulse control. we need understanding and support, just like anyone else.
Senior Editor: Thank you, Kanika, for sharing your experience with us today.
Kanika Batra-Matheson: Thank you for having me.I hope this helps people see beyond the stigma.
