Manipulation is when someone tries to make you do something you don't want to do, the dictionary definition is,
1.to manage or influence skillfully, especially in an unfair manner: to manipulate people's feelings.
Basically if you are in the sphere of someone's manipulation, they have the skill, they are the puppet master, you are the puppet. The sphere of influence is vast, as suggested by the artful nature of the manipulator...nothing is off limits, mind, heart, body and soul, even children?
It's the five finger heart exploding technique.
The voice of manipulation sounds like this, 'Well, I'm glad you are okay. If you think that's right. There's nothing I can do. I'm doing my best. You can't ask for more than that. I will help you. I love you. I have always loved you. No one loves you like I do....'
Can you hear the drone of your puppet master? Are your strings tweaking?
The manipulator will not stop trying to manipulate you, even if your heart does explode, because that is the goal, the only way to stop the puppet master is to cut your own strings.
The way to cut your strings is to buy some ear plugs. Then be brutally honest with yourself; what do you really want? How big is the gap between what you really, really want and what your puppet master says you want? What do you think you are getting? What are you getting?
Good luck with the scissors.
