RE: 'Emotional Blackmail' : That May Always Happen In Our Daily Life Without Noticing It

in #psychology7 years ago

This is such an important post! Thank you!
I have written about narcissists and empaths before and I will soon write about their relationships too. The abusers (narcissists) have several ways to play their game - it's not only emotional - most of it being energetic.
Especially when the victim is an empath, it will feel the feelings of the abuser and think that these feelings are theirs, enhancing the co-dependency relationship.
The worst thing is, that you get abused without knowing it. It happened to me too in a relationship and even 2 years after its ending, I still remember things where I got abused, without realizing it by this time.
Another thing that is good to know is, that abusers where mostly abused themselves in their past and they are just replaying their own abuse with their partner and making them the victim, they have been themselves in the past.
There are may more dynamics playing out, and I'm sure, there could be many books written about this topic. As I said before, the worst thing is, that the victims most likely won't read these books and articles while they are in the abusive relationship, because while it's happening, they don't realize it, because they innocently believe, that what they are experiencing is Love, which makes this a very complex topic, that is very hard to break the circle of abuse.
Thanks for sharing! I hope this helps as many victims as possible!

I totally agree with you @atmosblack. I would love to read some of your work about narcissists and empathy! Some People like to play victim games to make their billing behaviour reasonable. That’s realky sad to see it. It breaks the pure of love and trust among human beings. Can’t wait to see one day all human beings just get rid of the egos and love unconditionally without blaming, destroying and hurting others. Am I too ideal to think in this way? :D really appreciate you spending time here! Followed you and I’m looking forward to read more articles from you. Cheers!
