Gaslighting in a relationship that is hurting us.

Gaslighting, which is found in the relationship of and how you want to tell it, is the behavior of manipulating or misrepresenting the truth itself, calling or telling angle, but not telling it all, is also possible. The question is, what is it done for? It is to control the other side, which is usually caused by one side wanting to have a superior dominance.

The mechanism of Gaslighting in love, the doer often uses words or behaviors that cause the victim to start not trusting himself, such as what?

1. Deny what was said: "I never said that."

2. "If you hadn't done that, I wouldn't have been so angry."

3. Interpret everything inverted: "She's overthinking herself. She's already too sensitive."

4. Repeat misrepresentation until the victim begins to believe himself wrong.

Are you familiar?

And what follows is the psychological impact.

1. The victim is beginning to be unconvinced of himself.

2. The victim feels guilty and has done nothing wrong.

3. The victim is afraid of commenting because he is afraid of being blamed or told to "think by himself."

4. The victim loses confidence and can lead to anxiety or depression.

Some people stay because they are "afraid of losing their lovers" despite knowing that they are hurt.

Then why? We are still in this relationship.

Because Gaslighting is always hidden by good times that confuse victims.

Sometimes the other person may come back to be good, appeased, or sweet, making the victim believe that he still loves us until gradually getting stuck in the cycle of "hurt - sorry - come back for good - and hurt again." Scary.

How to notice if we might be Gaslight?

1. We begin to wonder what we see or feel.

2. We must apologize all the time when we do not know what to do.

3. We feel that your happiness depends on the other person's mood.

4. We are afraid to say what we think, because we are afraid of being "wrong again."

5. We are constantly tired of proving ourselves.

Important idea. Let me leave you with that.

Love shouldn't make us feel smaller; a good relationship doesn't make us doubt ourselves, it gives us confidence to be ourselves.
