1. Benefit from intimate relationships
Psychological manipulation has the daughter in intimate reports. It is a close and family way to take advantage of the weakness of close people in order for your things to go well. That's because in intimate connections we can give the most sensitive and emotional version of ourselves.
2. Project guilt
Manipulators, rarely, if they ever take responsibility for their actions - if they did, it would damage their credibility and cause doubt in abusive relationships. Most manipulators will adopt a self-governing position and be justified by making the other side conclude that it was him/that culprit.
Their golden rule is simple: If you don't give me what I want, I have the right to treat you any way you choose. Meanwhile, healthy bonds are built on the take-give principle.
3. They don't respect borders
They even ignore them. Their only goal is to gain power, complete control and can do so by touching your checks. By doing this constantly, there comes a moment that does not take into account the fact that a certain action can affect the other man.
4. Make you doubt yourself
Manipulators play with people's psychology and can get to the point where they make others doubt the reality around them. A good part of them use this tactic mainly with "victims" who are very sensitive or when they want to achieve something quickly and from scratch. By making the victim doubt himself and all that surrounds him, the latter finds it simpler to surrender to the manipulator by seeing him as superior in those moments.
