pain tolerance very low, in that everything sensory feels super-intense. also, i have fibromyalgia, so sometimes even light touch is excruciating.
however in the sense that i have chronic pain, my tolerance is high. i'm so used to it.
as a side note, psychopaths have blunted fear and an inability to learn from pain. However, they can be very sensitive emotionally (much like narcissists, particularly when the ego is threatened). they are characterized by very shallow but intense emotions. so for instance when they get a little bit frustrated they can completely freak out, enraged, and a minute later be back to baseline.
look at bundy going to the executioner. he is terrified. but he doesn't really "get" it through his trial. he still thinks he is going to get out of it. no sense of future aside from the immediate, no connection between getting caught and consequences. a psychopath will get caught in one lie and turn around and tell another obvious falsehood right to your face and literally expect to be believed.
i swear i think psychopathy is an emotional learning disorder. sorry... tangent!
