How to recognize a manipulator?
Have you noticed that some men are overly attentive and sensitive one day, but suddenly become so cold and indifferent that you feel like you have done something wrong? This is one of the most characteristic signs that a manipulator always uses effectively.
Remember, a man does not start manipulating openly or loudly, and in fact acts only with tactical steps - the main thing is not to fall into the trap of feelings and to realize in time that this technique does not work with you.
The main goal of manipulation is to control your emotions, attract attention and demonstrate influence.
A manipulator is characterized by:
- Never takes responsibility for his own behavior, avoids responsibility and blames you for everything;
- Never looks at the situation from your perspective and is not really very worried;
- Their behavior and words do not match;
- They like sudden silence, for example, as if they are punishing you if they do not call you, they will not contact you for several days or they will ignore you;
- They always put others first;
- They try their best to distance themselves from loved ones (family members, friends, colleagues), because you must have all your attention on them and become emotionally dependent;
- They are characterized by controlling everything.
