Abusers will force you into a position to have to defend and explain yourself because they thrive on arguing with others. The best way to stay away from their abuse is to not engage with them...But when it comes to abusers they will automatically assume you're guilty for something if you don't defend yourself and argue, they will assume you're guilty and justify bullying you over it. They put you into a position where it is double edged. Either way, they win so if you defend yourself they get a rise out of you and if you don't defend yourself they assume you're guilty and come after you. Abusers thrive off of twisting and manipulating the meaning of your body language, tone, subtleties, whether you engage or don't engage, or literally anything else.

“I guess I miss the times he acted obsessed with me. He made me feel so beautiful and wanted but after we broke up; I felt ugly and so stupid for thinking he ever cared about me when clearly I was a joke to him.”

2. love-bombing

The form of emotional manipulation used to gain power over a person by showering them with what appears to be tons of affection and attention.

Typical signs of love-bombing are complimenting, wanting to be around the subject, dramatic professions of love and devotion, bombarding the subject with grand gestures or expensive gifts.

Never stop investing in your looks. 💅🏼

We all know a friend who, after getting into a relationship, started letting herself go, stopped wearing makeup, stop getting dressed up etc.

Many women get into relationships and fall for the “baby i like you just the way you are, i love you with no makeup on, you don’t need the make up and the nails and the facials”.

Here’s why you should never stop taking care of yourself during a relationship.

1. remember “a woman being pretty is like a man being rich”, our society is superficial and your looks, wether you like it or not, are an asset in society, pretty privilege is real!

2. remember, men lie! they might say they dont like makeup and nails, but when they cheat? who do they cheat with? girls with that exact description.

In fact, no need for cheating, who do these men follow on instagram? it’s always the instagram models and IG baddies who hve their maakeup and hair done at all times.

Now let’s roll back the tape,

When your man first approached you there’s a 100% chance you were dressed well, with makeup on and hair done.

Yet why do they suddenly want you to change your look when you get with them?

it’s a manipulation tactic.

And no, it’s not because they think you’re oh so beautiful without makeup, most insecure men who score a beautiful girlfriend feel the need to keep her by their side by humbling her and limiting her options.

If you walk out the door looking good every day, your man knows he has to come correct, he knows you can pull other men so if he slacks on the dinner dates and flowers and romance, you can easily replace him.

When you go outside looking good without your man, he has no control over what happens in his absence, maybe a man will offer you a coffee, maybe another will offer to help with pumping gas, maybe another with will ask for your number.

Your man is completely out of control, and so if he wants to keep you he can either:

1. be a good partner and treat you well and honor you so you never have to look at other men.

2. the insecure approach would be to get you to change your look so your confidence is lowered and your options are limited.

Your man knows nobody’s checking for you if you’re leaving the house in sweats and a bonnet, and that’s a relief for him.

Manipulating you into taking less care of yourself is the first step of a series of narcissistic manipulation and abuse, when you’re confidence is chipped away, and you feel like you run out of options or are undesirable, that opens the way for him to treat you in a shitty way, and he knows you won’t leave, cause now he got you cornered and you feel so undesirable, being with someone as shitty as him feels like a privilege.

See how the manipulation happens?!

There’s a reason why women glow up so much after a breakup, they lose weight and they look better than ever before!!!!

If your looks get progressively worse as you enter a relationships, that’s a red flag baby.

STAY WOKE!!!

Manipulation technique!

I always used to say I had this "tactic" to get people I have a crush on to be with me

I'd make the situation so there's no other way, they think they like me until they like me because I make the whole environment look like it

Well if someone wants to use this technique I made, it's not very easy but you need to get everyone in an environment, where it's you and your person of interest, to act like something is already going on between you two, but not by asking them to do that, you have to make them think that and then it's a fake it till you make it. Your interest will start liking you because everyone acts like he already does.

Idk hope the explanation makes sense. Use carefully and if you wanna keep them make sure you keep working bc that was my mistake.

Unveiling the Double-Edged Sword: The Intersection of Human Psychology and Manipulation

The field of human psychology has greatly advanced our understanding of people, shedding light on the intricacies of human behavior, cognition, and emotions. This enhanced knowledge has empowered us to comprehend individuals and connect on deeper levels. However, as our understanding has grown, so too has the potential for manipulation. In this thought-provoking blog post, we explore the double-edged sword of our continued understanding of human psychology. We delve into how this knowledge has made us better at understanding people while simultaneously amplifying the abilities of those who seek to manipulate others.

Unveiling Human Psychology: Advancements in the study of human psychology have unraveled the mysteries of our thoughts, motivations, and behaviors. Through rigorous research and scientific exploration, we have gained valuable insights into the complexities of human cognition, emotions, and social dynamics. This understanding enables us to empathize, connect, and communicate more effectively, fostering healthier relationships and promoting personal growth.

Empowerment through Awareness: As we uncover the intricacies of human psychology, we become better equipped to recognize and understand the motivations and behaviors of others. This awareness allows us to navigate social interactions with greater empathy, sensitivity, and respect. It enables us to forge deeper connections, foster meaningful dialogue, and build more inclusive and harmonious communities.

The Dark Side of Understanding: However, our enhanced understanding of human psychology has inadvertently created opportunities for manipulation. Those with nefarious intentions can exploit our psychological vulnerabilities, leveraging their knowledge to deceive, control, or exploit others. Manipulative individuals may exploit cognitive biases, emotional triggers, and social dynamics to gain power or advantage, causing harm to unsuspecting individuals.

Psychological Manipulation: Psychological manipulation refers to the deliberate and unethical tactics used to influence, control, or deceive others. Manipulators may exploit psychological principles, such as persuasion techniques, emotional manipulation, or gaslighting, to achieve their desired outcomes. Their actions can undermine trust, exploit vulnerabilities, and erode personal agency.

Safeguarding against Manipulation: While manipulation poses challenges, there are ways to safeguard against its harmful effects. Developing critical thinking skills, emotional intelligence, and a strong sense of self-awareness can help individuals recognize and resist manipulative tactics. Promoting ethical behavior, fostering open communication, and advocating for transparency and accountability are vital in creating a society less susceptible to manipulation.

Ethical Use of Psychological Knowledge: To counter the dark side of manipulation, it is crucial to promote the ethical use of psychological knowledge. Ethical practitioners, researchers, and educators can help disseminate accurate information, raise awareness about manipulation tactics, and empower individuals to make informed choices. By leveraging psychological insights for positive purposes, we can foster personal growth, enhance relationships, and create a more just and compassionate society.

Our continued understanding of human psychology has undoubtedly improved our ability to understand and connect with others. However, we must also confront the unsettling reality that this knowledge can be exploited by manipulative individuals. By raising awareness, promoting ethical use of psychological insights, and nurturing critical thinking, we can mitigate the negative effects of manipulation and build a society that values empathy, authenticity, and respectful communication. Let us harness the power of human psychology for the betterment of individuals and communities, fostering an environment where understanding and compassion thrive, and manipulation finds no fertile ground to grow.

Be careful about how you set boundaries or talk to a dangerous, vindictive, mentally unwell person bc they get paranoid very easily and will take anything you say the wrong way, and if you genuinely word something off on accident an apology won’t suffice bc they will come after you and try to fuck your life up or rape you over it and extreme people like this have no innate morality or heart. Just full of paranoia and anger issues. Best to keep your words MINIMAL meaning just say “leave me be please!” Or “I don’t wanna be bothered, thank you.” MIN-A-MAL.

Even then they’ll find a reason to hurt you;

for an example I set a boundary with a person when I was younger and when I said I didn’t want to talk and was sitting in my history class waiting for my teacher to arrive (to save my ass) the girl gave me a dirty look and accused me of talking shit, when I emphasized I just didn’t wanna talk, she said I obviously hated her bc “everyone did” and I didn’t know how to respond to my intentions being interpreted and my boundaries being set. Toxic response of her, although I sympathized with where she was coming from I didn’t realize the malice intentions this kid actually had.

So when I say mentally unwell, toxic people…if you notice red flags, and they can be subtle, you MUST steer clear of them always, set boundaries as nice as you can, and run! And don’t try to feel bad for them bc that’s a mistake that’ll get you hurt, just LEAVE. Make up any excuse or lie you can if you want, but set HARD boundaries and say you’re simply not interested in talking.

If you feel in immediate danger, esp a man, give a fake phone number if they ask for one (you can have one ready on a fake number app that’s downloadable, and temporary number websites) and act enthusiastic about seeing them “later in the week” bc you’re busy and gotta go somewhere rn and try to stay with a group of friends or family members when going out. Keep mace on you always and even a recording device and dash cam on your car for police evidence.

What Are You Supposed To Do When You Adore People Who Can Not Love You Back? 🥺🥰

First off, my first “love” or “crush” was on a guy named Jesse… I loved him from the time I was 14 till I was 24!!!! I did big grand gestures for him, even made Jesse a whole cd of love songs that I wrote myself and recorded. That was June 2009 that I gave him that CD. 🥺❤️‍🩹 Jesse would notice me at times and either compliment me or say something funny/awkward but Jesse intimidated me soooo much!! I was afraid to be my true authentic self cuz I wanted to impress him… Ultimately, I watched Jesse date 3 girls and he married the 3rd one!! 💔❤️‍🩹 in January 2013, is when I saw Jesse meet his 3rd gf & I KNEW he was going to marry her. I saw him find “the one” and I understood I had to stop chasing him… Oh it hurt me so much and I became a lost ship out at sea. I had a bf when I 18 named Stewart but I always chose Jesse. Knowing Jesse couldn’t choose me back, caused me to lose myself. I wrote my 1st suicide note becuase I had invested SO MUCH into Jesse (10 years of chasing him)

2nd, 1 week after I wrote that suicide note in January of 2013, I met Cody. Cody talked me out of suicide and then lovebombed me. He instantly became the most special person to ever come in my life!!! I truly believed Cody spoke my language and felt the same way as me. We bonded so quick and deep but at the same time, I was sick to my stomach and couldn’t eat. I had the weirdest feeling I’ve ever felt. I thought I was “high on love” and believed that’s why I couldn’t eat… Cody randomly dumped me which not only shook me and confused me but shattered my dreams. I spent a summer crying over him and still writing love songs/heart break songs but then Cody came back, love bombed me again and then asked me to move in with him!!! I was soo over the moon ecstatic and happy. I adored Cody but I knew he had dated another girl over the summer and wasn’t sure if he had totally forgotten her. Eventually Cody ghosted me and I was a walking zombie after that. I was in total isolation and numb. I couldn’t feel my own heart beat 💔💔💔 I realized Cody didn’t love me but rather, he hated my guts!! (No one that loves me, can throw me away like that)

3rd, I met Andrew about 5 months after cody ghosted me and he was the 1st person/guy to make me feel something since Cody. SO now, Andrew is the most special person to me… we were together for over a year but the relationship was not stable and extremely one sided. I was deeply madly obsessed and head over heels for Andrew!! Oh wow I adored him more than my own breath or life. I was gonna give Andrew everything. I was prepared to worship at his feet and go to the edge of the earth with him. Wasn’t a second I didn’t stare at his photos or say his name just to hear it. I wouldn’t shut up about him and I wrote him love songs too. I would wake up SOOO excited to see his name and text on my screen. I would go to bed with visions in my head of myself holding him and kissing him to sleep. Omg I was HIS ADDICT!!! I realize now it was toxic and not true love but I thought back then it was. Andrew made me believe we were happy and falling together but it didn’t last long before he started pulling away/being cold towards me AND I was grappling. I was holding into to Andrew for all it was worth 💔💔💔💔 I cried so hard over him and I’ve never been able to stop thinking of him and when I hear a beautiful love song or sad heart break song, I still cry over Andrew 😭💔🥺❤️‍🩹

Over time, I realized NONE of these men can love me back the way I love them and they’re all forever in a special spot in my heart. I know there was times they “lead me on” or “lied to me” and that’s hurtful. That’s caused me great pain and sorrow. I believe both Andrew and Cody wore a mask to deceive me BUT I love soooo much I’ll never get over them. I’m trying to heal from them and forgive them but my love can’t die for them. I can’t trust them and I don’t want to disrupt their lives. I keep a distance and I stay away from them. Cody ghosted me and I had to block’s Andrew’s number but oh gosh. I want the best for those men. Even Jesse. I hope his wife is a good woman to him and take goood care of him. I pray these men are happy and healthy 🙏🏻 but I don’t think I’ll EVER get over them. 🥺❤️‍🩹

MANIPULATION TECHNIQUES MOODBOARDS

No! I am not dead, yet! I'm just lazy, demotivated and I tend to have depression episodes out of nowhere. It makes me feel depressed and anixious in the same time, how my drafts are full, but I am unable to create anything of such ideas because of school, lack of motivation and let's be honest I am extremely lazy.

But whatever, yesterday I got an idea which might make me a little bit more active here. Since it's close to the end of the school years ( i just have to pass finals), I decided that I'll create at least one moodboard per week.

I picked this topic because the manipulation and it's techniques are fascinating me. I know there are much more, but I picked the most typical, but also the most interesting ones for me.

The list is below. I hope you will enjoy it and I will be thankful for any support in form of ♡, reblogs or some lovely comments.,

Moodboards plan | i might fix it later

i. SEDUCTION

ii. LOVE-BOMBING

iii. SOCIAL ISOLATION

iv. GUILT TRIPPING

v. BULLYING

vi. BLACK & WHITE THINKING

vii. SILENT TREATMENT

viii. BRIBERY

ix. MIRRORING

x. DEFINING

xi. OBJECTIFICATION

xii. GASLIGHTING

xiii. BLACKMAILING
