Is My Partner Manipulating Me Quiz

Manipulation could be hard to spot, especially when you are constantly second-guessing yourself and the thoughts you are having. Generally, the manipulation involves saying or doing something to coerce someone to do something on the foundation of guilt, built-up pressure, or feeling sorry for the other person. Because a good manipulator always seems like the victim, even though they are definitely not, it could be difficult to figure out if you are being manipulated.
