Manipulation and Control

Hi everyone,

I have been silent for awhile because of course I got sucked back into my exabf's life and have been trying to tell myself that he is getting better.

So not true. So my hope today is to gain strength from all of you in learning about manipulation and control. I was blindsided and I think it was because I did not spot the manipulation that was going on.

My ex is currently living with his sister and told me the other day that at the end of the month he is moving. He doesnt know where or with what money its just that by the first he has to be out. When I questioned him further he said that he and his sister just dont get along. Sound familar? Same story he said about me and him.

So I told this story to a friend and his said right away my ex was manipulating me into begging him to come home.

So here is where all of you come in. Help me understand manipulation and how it works and give examples of experiences of manipulation so that I can prepare myself for this....

Thanks everyone....
