How do you spot a manipulator?You can't. Not when you're the manipulated one. You never know until it's too late.
Everyone has been taken advantage of at least once in their life. It's a fair game. It's human nature to do so.
I know I've been taken advantage of many many times. Some I let willingly, some I didn't know.
Have I been manipulated? Sadly, I must say I have. And today, I understood it all.
Being a manipulator isn't something everyone can do. A person who knows how to manipulate (conciously or not) has a certain charm, a certain draw. Everything the person says, though it may be against your beliefs might suddenly sound like the most inspiring thing you've ever heard. You actually find yourself believing. And that's where you think you've established a connection. It's special, you think to yourself. But it is a trap. Though not intentionally set for you, but you've fallen, not knowing what it truly is. It has become an obsession.
I've seen so many people, strong and smart, defeated at the hands of a manipulator. But sometimes I do believe that person who manipulates mean no harm. It is just the way things are.
It is today I realise that I'm lucky enough to find a way out. I know I've been upset, confused and was made to believe in something which didn't exist (or did it?). It chips my ego to admit that I was fooled. Like so many others, I was. But then I remembered.
I'm human too.
The lessons life sometimes spring upon you. *sigh*
