This is a continuation of the last episode; toxic relationship and we would like to discuss the most subtle ones:
· Gaslighting is a tactic in which a person or entity, in order to gain more power, makes a victim question their reality.
- They tell blatant lies.
- They deny they ever said something, even though you have proof.
- Flipping things back
- Blame shifting -The person doing the gaslighting or blame-shifting is actually more interested in feeling powerful or in control (and the buzz that comes with it) than they are emotionally connected to their target
· Forgetfulness a way of manipulation
· Controlling behaviour
· Helpfulness
· Protectiveness
· Not invested in the relationship with you.
· In relationships with others? Cheat with you - cheat on you
Take care,
