I would advise any young person seeking to be in a relationship to first learn to love yourself and heal your own inner emotional wounds whether they are childhood traumas or fears/insecurities. Finding the right therapist is absolutely key to starting the healing process. Once you have acheived a great level of emotional awareness through self compassion and self love, then use these skills to find a person who has also found success in their own personal healing journey. Remember, people who are known to be manipulators and narcissists are simply people who have emotional issues of their own that they refuse to acknowledge and heal from so in order to find relief from their low self worth, they seek to find people that are easy to control and their victims tend to be others who also have low self worth and thus very emotionally vulnerable.

Number 6 is not a great example. The scenario presented was presented as if those sentences always mean something malicious, but that's not true. It is totally valid to say Hey, I like you and would potentially enjoy being with you at some point, but I've got shit going on rn that I need to deal with, but once I'm done taking care of my shit and working on myself, I'd love to give us a shot.
It's only toxic if someone is lying, it's healthy to set boundaries even for yourself. Maybe you like someone a lot but you've got to heal from something traumatic first, and you don't want to get their emotions tangled up in your mess while you're processing things.
Some of these videos are kinda hit or miss.

Wish I had seen this video about a year ago. I would've realized my friend was manipulating me earlier. I realized it way too late. And when I confronted them about their lies and manipulation, they tried to make me the bad guy. Hell, at one point my friend called me Transphobic despite that never coming up in our conversations. And they constantly gave me the I was chatting with so and so line, instead of getting back to me, when they were active in group, and choosing to not chat with me.
I'm trying to get past these people, but they were people I truly cared about, and trusted. so it's hard. It's like trying to literally remove a piece of my heart.

I experienced most of these tactics in my last dating relationship. We are broken up and I have moved on, but the irony is now that I am moving on. He is coming around and being very visible in certain social settings that we have in common. I am deeply suspicious of this, since he chose to get involved with someone else and get married. When I ran into him again, after not seeing him in over a year, my first impression was that he is not working on his recovery, and I would not have gotten involved with him, and I most certainly would not have married him. Thank you for the advice because it really reaffirms that moving on is the right decision for me.

I had a best friend nd i trusted her more than anyone else and she used to use these tricks on me cuz I didn't knew that these things exists she used me for her own good and when she succeeded she left me all alone and in such a situation that everyone was against me I had a long time to recover. She used to see my texts but didn't answer and when I asked her about it she used to say I was busy tho she was online. She used to ignore me when I was in difficulties. We had quarrels many times and in the end we splited up. And also she used to shower me with compliments and praises to do her work. Sometimes she used to fight with me for no reason

With the last part, not everyone who speaks about the things they have done for others is trying to manipulate. Sometimes the person is simply pointing out to the other person they actually cared for them a lot and are trying to remind the person of how much they cared for them. Sadly it is usless because the person who they are pointing these things out to were only using them and enslaved them. They know that the person did a lot for them they just do not care because all they ever were to them was a slave. They never actually cared at all for the person. Some lessons are learned the hard way.

The most important thing and hardest thing to realise is that you've been manipulated. Best thing we can do is always be skeptical, seek help and advice from different people to see if things checks out.
While I'd like to say keep your loved ones close to you, and listen to everything they say, it's not always possible; sometimes the ones you love most are the manipulators themselves.
Be safe, always be skeptical, but never let anyone take that smile off your face because you're all beautiful and deserve to be respected and loved unrequitedly

. I dated someone who was diagnosed with anti-social personality disorder aka sociopathy (didn't know until like a year into our relationship when I talked to their ex) and yea these are definitely related to dating someone with sociopathy.
I dated them for 4 years.
I dunno. It just isn't right to date someone with these problems unless you also have these problems. Like they should just have each other. There is no fixing or curing people like this. As much as you want to believe that they actually loved you or cared, they did not.

This video describes exactly what i experienced 3-4 years ago with my First Ex.
Number 4 - 8 in this Video is exactly what they had done to me and watching this video really made me mad when i realized that.
I already broke up contact to them for 3 years now, but it still hurts. a lot.
Especially if someone like this is your FIRST Relationship and you thought this would be normal, because you didn't know any better.
This experience clearly will affect my Love Life forever, because it lasted for an entire year. >.

i dissagree with the last two minuts doh, you can be gasslit into saying that by a minipulater. aswell as the show me your phone thing out of the last one, if the manipulation goes so far that you disstrust and you ask for transperency you are gasslit into that aswell /delet block and unfriend also not a fan of that, someone that leaves you on the hook does that aswell. its more complicated than that. jet again you only scratch the serfice of something rly complex tisk tisk just as bad as my dislexia do better im trying aswell: D

I know you won’t see this, but I need a video of why I can’t feel love in any sort of way. It’s left me damaged and irritated more times than I can count and I’ve just felt so alone watching everyone else get into relationships all around me. I’ve had 1 relationship in my life, and that only last for a week, and I wasn’t really feeling any sort of love I just thought that the relationship would maybe open my eyes to it. Nothing I’ve tried has worked. Just please make a video about this.

My bff always had a boyfriend even though she wasn't attractive. She was really good at manipulating men. She said she would be really nice at the beginning & do everything for him, including stuff behind closed doors. Then when they would do something to make her mad, she'd stop doing one thing, but tell her bf that if he worked hard enough he could get her back to doing everything. That wasn't true, of course. She would never let them get back to the perfect days.

wish i was able to see this video years ago
worst part is that a lot of these things have to do with something someone COULD be doing genuinely and not out of malice, but so much of the time people just leave you guessing on whether it's truth or lies.
it's best to speak and give truth with the things sitting on the blurred line, because some people have been through so much lies that it could take a village to help them feel safe when it's finally the truth

If only this came out 5 to 6 months ago. i wouldve realized my now ex was doing this to me. She would be so bubbly, nice and caring for moments then just be straight cold for any miniscule reason even unrelated to us, then proceed to leave me on read or not read my messages at all even though she would be online and posting on her socials, not answer my calls until she decided to talk to me again. it was destroying my mental, specially being a LDR.

I hope this is not the same thing happening between me and my partner. I've just been waiting for him to clarify about his behavior and affection towards me but since it could be a coincidence becausebit could be seasonal depression and other things happening in his life that I clearly have no idea about - i hope this is not it because my ex did all these to me and I really wish my current partner is all genuine about things he has shown me.

I wish this video had come out last year. Out of these tricks, the perv that turned me into his toy really only used love bombing and guilt trips, but he did more stuff like claiming to have talked to the police about my parents multiple times. That seems like a huge lie now. The final word that I got from the police after they spoke to him was that if he ever approached me, I should immediately call 999 (UK version of 911) and report him.

Guilt trips are the worst. Not only because they trap you in a relationship (romantic or otherwise) but it also makes you less trusting of others who genuinely want to help you. When someone offers to help you, you will be more likely to push them away because you don't want to give them something to hold over you later. As someone who has gone through this. And is honestly still trapped by it. Its not a pleasant place to be

The harmless rejection one is actually very wrong and misleading. Though it may make sense in SPECIFIC situations, surely not all comparatively vague rejections are for the sake of manipulation and not genuine. NO IS NO. if someone tells you they dont want to be anything more than a friend and rejects you this should be respected and should not be scrutinized further.
