This is by no means an isolated case in relationships. One makes the other dependent on him/her by planting the seeds of self-doubt.

If this phrase sounds familiar, you’ll know what I mean: “look at you, who else would want you?”

By far, this is the lowest of the low in interpersonal connections. If the recipient is too blinded by love and has a hefty amount of insecurity to begin with, this evil maneuver will surely work; not realizing that he/she is being degraded, manipulated and kept in bonds by the power of suggestion.

People have no right to bind another through means that will ultimately erode the other’s self confidence. The exploitation of one’s diminutive ego is another form of emotional blackmail, one that needs the consent of the person concerned. The sad thing is that more people are in this kind of relationship than we realize.
