8. They ignore your needs and wants
To them, your relationship should only be about them and what they want. There’s no “we”.
Your feelings, needs and opinions have no relevance to them and don’t want to listen to what you might have to say. If they do allow you to speak your mind, they “make fun of them or discount them,” adds Ferentz.
They make you feel bad for asking something of them, making you feel less important and doubting your reactions every step of the way. “Was I being too sensitive? Was he right that I was overreacting?”
9. They force you to make excuses for them
They manipulate you into taking pity on them to prevent you from noticing their emotional abuse.
You end up believing that you are the real abuser, so you try to make it up to them and cater to their every need to avoid getting them upset.
You feel like whatever they feel is your fault so you try to please them in every way you can.
