I love how Im nothing like this. You know how stories play out. We see it one way. Then we see it differently. The truth tends to be in the middle somewhere. Ive found faults in things I was sure I was right on, years later. Other times. I found myself to be WAY TOO STRESSED and in need of care, love, healthy behaviors toward them. Under antisocial actions of others. We sometimes adapt. Become like them. Be sure your actions match your thoughts. Your reputation will represent both. Usually, with people like that. They like to be OVER NICE. Then expect PERFECT LOYALTY. like youre never supposed to make a mistake. Everything is GAS LIT. Everything is a BLOWOUT.

Last night I was crying when talking to people because I am at a really low point right now but I didnt want to sound greedy for their understanding when talking about what I am going through. Someone hurt me really bad and it is hard confronting them bc I dont want to make them hate themselves if I tell them what they did. It keeps being reversed into it being my fault and my reality is being so distorted I cant tell right from wrong anymore. I am getting help from friends and family and they say I am not manipulative but I honestly have a hard time believing them. I am just so confused on who to believe.

I appreciate this alot, however, I feel that someone who has gone through a divorce or slue of terrible relationship. may set higher standards going forward. and when standards aren't being met while the other expects the best, while they're giving an unequal reciprocation. it's okay for the other party member too request for more? Does this make them a manipulator? Just asking. I feel, nowadays, people with firm standards get framed as manipulative, when they ask for their wants and needs or get framed as manipulative when their partner brings a lack of fulfillment unto their partner. Help me out here

What about a person who, when we are discussing something and I bring up a possible problem with what he wants to do, throws up his hands and says okay Im not going to[ do whatever it is ] and am going to call off the [ whatever he was planning to do ] & the hell with it.
When this happens --with a person I know- I feel as if Im being manipulated - as if he is threatening to punish me by stopping
whatever it was he was going to do. all because I brought up a possible problem.

I do pretty much all of these, it makes me sick to know Im exactly like my father.
I want to change this with everything I have so future relationships are built on more than just over complimenting mixed with guilt tripping. Its so unhealthy the way I see women, I get possessive and controlling because my anxiety gets so bad that I become irrational and irritable. Please, can anyone just point me in the right direction? I want to change for me.

thanks for the video. some of these points can also be a normal natural behavior. for e. g. when someone is rude at you, you can speak out loud that it his or her fault in order to defend yourself or make things clear. also some use the victim role to manipulate you, so it is ok to let them know that their problem is actually not a real problem and/or their own fault. manipulators should get a taste of their own medicine; )

So if someone has abused you to the point you react and tell them how awful you think their behaviour is - is that guilttripping? Because why shouldnt they say it? It seems like the perfect deflection for narcissists to just say youre just trying to guilt trip meit isnt a guilt trip if youre just telling the person what you think/feelif someone has abused you, they deserve to be blamed they literally did it.

I have a friend who always tells me I'm pretty and does things that makes it seem like she had a crush on me, but I get a weird feeling whenever she does. For some reason, I'm pretty sure she's saying these things on purpose to get me to develop a crush on her, even though she doesn't have one on me. Idk why this is what my brain decided is happening, but it's strange: P

I dont do it deliberately, but I sometimes try too hard to be liked and accepted, sometimes doing some of these things to keep peope in my life. I struggle with abandonment issues and for me, that can cause me to subconsciously try to manipulate people to meet my emotional needs. This is just my personal story. It doesnt apply to everyone.

I complement everyone. I try to find something I like about everyone, and tell them. It's not for manipulation. I've grown up with low self esteem and I want everyone to feel good about themselves. My compliments are always sincere. I don't want anything, from anyone, I just want everyone to feel a little brighter.

the time stamp for over complimenting is named over complicating and im not pointing out this typo so it can be changed, but bc over complicating is a big tactic in manipulators, talking about little details in situations that are irrelevant and distract the discussion from your feelings. thank you.

My ex fiancee of 5 years was gaslighting me for a year, I had asked her if she wasn't happy in the relationship and she kept lying all while sleeping with a coworker, when I'd ask about the coworker she would tell me I was paranoid or that nothing was going on.

Is it consider to use manipulation in a good way like example if you find out someone made a mistake and they don't confess, then you stone walling them if they don't confess, is that consider bad or good manipulation?

I had to stop seeing this at point 3, coz i felt trauma of being manipulated constantly and still living with that group of people, and i have no choice yet.
Will continue seeing this hopefully soon

woah, telling people not to over exaggerate emotions is not gas lighting. gas lighting is specifically saying something didn't happen when it did. diminishing emotions is specific. this is misinformation

My mother guilt trips and diminishes me, even though it doesn't seem intentional, I think it has affected the way I treat other people. I have realized my mistakes and am working to not be like her.

I'm sensitive but insensitive to others. Sometimes when I feel sad bcs of what my friends say thats probably not really serious, I unintentionally guilt trip them.
