My mother use to say “Bom chelellakl eng mengit a chad el bekyaes el diak bol chelellakl”.
“Don’t give into your fears, if you do, you won’t be able to talk to your heart.” ~Paulo Coelho
A person who fears being insignificant will manipulate the situation and circumstances so she could control him like a puppet hanging on string.
When someone uses your emotions to get what they want, steer your behavior, or influence your ideals, that’s known as emotional manipulation.
Manipulation is the act of trying to control something or someone. For example, when you manipulate something with your hands, you’re positioning it to your intent, such as an artist turning a lump of clay into a piece of pottery.
Humans, as creatures with their own thought processes, aren’t so easy to control. You have your own set of wants, needs, and interests that guide you through life.
When someone else wants to control your journey and can’t do so physically, they might turn to tactics of emotional manipulation.
Someone who lives in fear or lacks emotional intelligence is so good in manipulating people’s emotions to put division in groups like a good politician. Them and us. And them (we) become the bad guys.
They’re emotionally draining. Best to just step back and watch it all play out. Tomorrow is another day.
