“He justifies his control with insecurity. His last girlfriend really hurt him, so he holds out on committing to you. He’s been cheated on before, so he always has to know where you are and what you’re doing. It’s not you, it’s him, and he uses that logic to control your every move.”Tagged: manipulation, Insecure, Control
“Everything is your fault and you are nothing without him — or so he’d like you to believe. He’s in constant control of your self-esteem. You only feel good when he makes you feel good about yourself, but if you’re not in his favor, you’re nothing.”Tagged: manipulation, Hate, Self-Esteem

Instead of building you up, he tears you down with the reminder that you could easily be replaced.”Tagged: manipulation, Options, Threats, Replaceable
