Manipulation

Ah, so that's the secret. haha

 

i agree essentially.

manipulation isn't always some shady, disrespectful thing

its just normal human interaction, trying to get what you want one way or another

manipulation without scruples is awful
but manipulation itself isn't bad

 

I feel that it's my problem if I've allowed myself to be manipulated. I really can't blame the person can I? Just expect everyone to be ultimately out to get you, and then you will be less likely to be manipulated in the future.

:cheers2:

 

Oh, I'm well aware of this.

I sale stuff for a living.

Yea, I hate everyone just about anyway. Might as well be a hermit.

 

You dont have to be a hermit just try to remember that all you really can trust is yourself.

 

No, not really....I'm usually the one who does all the manipulating....

 

Psssh, yeah! I have to manipulate my husband all the freaking time. Make him think it was his idea to clean out the garage.

 

Yeah i know it sounds like i am trying to be a smart ass, ive just been studying so i have it on the brain, i know its not funny, sorry

 

Well you suck then.

 

Eh, yea, but that's not hurting anything. It's almost an art form to get get men to do anything but sit around...

 

I do sometimes.

 

I'm sure.

 

i actually did find it funny haha
i just couldn't come up with a proper response...way too high and watcihng Office Space haha

 

we enjoy doing nothing

 

Ahh well thats nice to know

 

Thats what the 'ego' needs to believe, anyway.

Everyone with a TV/radio/friends/any interpersonal contacts/thoughts... has been and is being 'manipulated'. It is rarely known or understood by the 'victim'. As I said, the 'ego' is involved and will blind you to the fact that you are manipulable; "Not me! I'm special!"
Anyone with a 'belief' is easily manipulated; anyone with an 'ego' is easily manipulated.
(From the Perspective that 'manipulation' is possible in the first place...)

 

you don't really believe that do you piaf?!
silly girl

 

eck, pseudo psychology.

 

That is a huge fallacy! 'Naive realism' has long been refuted.

 

If you're gonna post like a smart ass why dont you go all the way and cite some sources?
