EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL


Recently I’ve been emotionally blackmailed by someone close to me. It’s manipulated me and killing me so. Firstly, I didn’t really care about it but as time flies the guilty feeling made me depressed and causes the battlefield of mind. This is not good at all. I browsed some of the emotional blackmail article and here is the conclusion :

=== Emotional Blackmail ===

When the people in your life use fear, obligation, and guilt to manipulate you. It is a very powerful form of manipulation in which the person directly or indirectly threatens to punish you if you don't compile with how they want you to behave.

Some examples of things Emotional Blackmailers say are: "If you really loved me..." "After all I've done for you..." "How can you be so selfish..."

A form of blackmail that usually doesn't affect you directly, however makes you feel guilty if you do not do what the blackmailer wants.

Emotional blackmail often happens when someone refuses to be the blackmailer's boyfriend/girlfriend.

Emotional Blackmail often consists of crying, cutting themselves, or even as far as threatening to commit suicide.

If you are the one who emotionally blackmail someone, please stop it. Don’t ruin other people life just because you don’t feel secure about yourself. For the one who are emotional blackmailed by someone, just avoid him/her. Don’t bother for having him/her around you. He/she is just not the one.
