Introduction

It happens too often. People who are suffering from a low self-esteem end up getting stuck in a relationship where theyre being controlled by their significant other or even a child. Theyre the unwitting targets of people who suffer from psychological disorders or emotional disorders that propel them to behave in a manipulative way.

The results of this manipulation can be painful for the victims, but especially for the manipulators themselves, as they struggle to maintain relationships with loved ones or workmates. Manipulators can end up isolating themselves in their attempts to control a situation and feed their need for power to build themselves up. These isolated individuals may find it hard to break the cycle, thus finding that it tends to feed itself.

Overtime, victims may become wise to the manipulation and end the relationships altogether. A manipulator can also find that they will manipulate themselves into believing their actions are necessary for the well-being of themselves or the person whom they are manipulating.

Manipulators have a few main motivations that may be shocking to those being victimized.

They:

  • Must advance their purpose and personal gain at the cost of others.
  • Are power hungry and need to feel superior in a relationship.
  • Are control freaks and need to feel as if they are the dominant one in a relationship at all times.
  • Have a low self-esteem and must have power over another in order to raise their perception of themselves.
  • See manipulation as merely a game due to a psychopathic tendency.

If you find that you know someone like this, be aware of their actions and yours. Read further to figure out the warning signs of a manipulator and how to deal with one in your relationship.

Chapter One
Warning Signs

Youve most likely picked up this book because you feel that you're already emotionally manipulated, or perhaps youre curious as to whether or not youre an emotional manipulator. Believe it or not, you can be a manipulator without being conscious of the act. You may believe that what youre doing is for the better of a relationship, but in all reality, its not.

Here are the signs of an emotional manipulator, whether you are one or trying to figure out if youre with one. Note that many of these will be used together, but in the end, the goal of the manipulator is to achieve their ends, whatever it might cost their victims. Thus, they will take their victims measure and then choose the best option or combination of options to achieve their ends with that specific victim. Below are some of the options that a manipulator has in their arsenal.

Positive Reinforcement

If youre with a manipulator, they will use positive reinforcement in order to get you to do what they want. For example, they will:

  • give you superficial sympathy when something has happened
  • use superficial charm
  • apologize excessively
  • use money, gifts, and approval to get what they want
  • use a forced smile or laugh to elicit a positive reaction

All of these tactics are part of the strategy being used by the manipulator to achieve their ultimate goal of getting what they want at the expense of their victims emotional, financial or physical well-being. After all, the rewards they are using during positive reinforcement are simply carrots. The next option may seem like a carrot, but often times it really ends with the stick.

Negative Reinforcement

Negative reinforcement is removing someone from a negative situation in order to get what they want. For example, your significant other may say: You wont have to do the laundry if you fix the sink. Thus, the manipulator is providing a reward or removal from the negative situation to achieve their goal. Yet by giving the manipulator what they want, the one being manipulated may find themselves going from one negative situation into another one before they even realize it.

Intermittent Reinforcement

This is when you only sometimes get what you want. Its akin to gambling. You know that you sometimes get a really great response if you do the dishes, so you do the dishes all the time. However, you dont get praise for it all the time, so its a lot like playing the lottery. One night you might get really great positive reinforcement for doing the dishes, and the next you get the cold shoulder. Yet that small taste of really great positive reinforcement keeps you wanting more, so you keep trying.

The manipulator uses the need for approval and your efforts to control the overall situation. They will keep you on your toes, while still getting what they want from you, either in terms of actions, emotional gratification or financial support. This type of reinforcement also tends to work on a carrot like approach. Yet the next one is using the stick to achieve the manipulators goals.

Punishment

People who are trying to emotionally manipulate you into doing something for them will use punishment if you do not seem to respond well to the aforementioned ways. These punishments may include some of the following:
