12 Ways You Can be a High Value Woman He’ll Never Want to Leave

It seems like your partner is two completely different people; they can change in a split second for no reason. They will act one way with you but a different way when around your family and friends, and maybe a completely different way when around a boss, or strangers. Psychopaths are experts at blending into whatever crowd they're around, like a chameleon. They can make anyone like them. When you first began dating, they were charming, sincere, everything seemed perfect, and they would say everything you'd want to hear.

This is because they wanted you to believe in them when in reality they were really just setting their traps. Now that they know you are dedicated to them, they are able to reveal more of their true selves without fear that you will run away. They can show their evil ways and feel they know how to manipulate you. Psychopaths are the masters of manipulation. They have a way of turning everything around on you.

You start to have little battles with yourself in your head, overreact, or start to second-guess yourself. Psychopaths like to confuse their partners and make it near impossible to have a logical argument. Even when you are in the right, you will never feel that you are because they will manipulate everything you say. If you begin to question who you are and your values, you might be dating a psychopath. You start to think you are going crazy because you constantly doubt everything you do and say.

You might start to become paranoid about things like what kind of clothes you wear, what you say to friends, or if people are talking about you. Who you once were and felt comfortable being might be a fleeting idea. When you talk to your partner you feel like you are never heard because they just don't listen. It's like you are talking to a brick wall.

When they do choose to listen, your words are often taken out of context or used against you. If you said you would like to watch a romantic movie, your partner would try to convince you that you are silly for liking that type of movie, or if you told him you wanted to go out for dinner, your partner would try to make sure you do something they'd want to do instead. You feel completely ignored and that your thoughts and opinions are not valid. In a loving relationship, partners are able to communicate effectively and respect what the other person has to say.

A psychopath will lie about almost everything they do, regardless if they actually have a reason to do so. This can include where they have been, who they were with, why they were there, and the like. Instead, they will twist your words and make you think you were the one in the wrong. Psychopaths will even lie to get you into a relationship with them by telling you they like and want the same things as you.

In reality, they don't like or want the same things as you at all. The only thing on their mind is the need to have control over you. A psychopath will lie in order to get what they want, and can even see it as a fun way to manipulate other people. You feel like you are walking on eggshells; the smallest things will make your partner lose their temper.

If your friends ask you to come over or if your family asks you out to dinner, you're scared to tell your partner for fear of their reaction. Your partner wants to know who you're friends with, making you feel guilty about spending time with them, and eventually you slowly start to spend less time with your friends until you feel like your partner is the only person left in your life. They learn about your vulnerabilities and weaknesses so they know where and how they can hurt you, and cause you more pain. They make you feel alone, confused, scared, embarrassed, or worthless until you no longer have any confidence left in you.

All of this is so they can make you feel isolated and lose all of your support, giving them more power and control. If your partner is a psychopath, they may hurt you either physically and verbally. They have no remorse for their actions and they will manage to blame you for what they've done and make you feel bad for saying anything at all.

They do not respect your feelings and what you need in a relationship. If you caught your partner cheating, a psychopath may promise that it was a one-time thing and will never happen again. Despite this, no matter what they say it always seems to happen again and again. They continually make choices that hurt you without showing the slightest amount of care. This is their way of manipulating you. The only thing they are sorry about is being caught. A psychopath will do whatever they can to make you feel bad for them. Their aim is to get you to sympathize and feel sorry for them.

The reason they do this is to manipulate you in not leaving them despite their treatment and behavior towards you. This is a trap that most people fall into, however your own mental and physical health should be taking number one priority at all times.

You shouldn't try and help someone who is only tearing you down. When your partner does something nice for you, they feel entitled to praise or a reward, like a little child or puppy. They are not doing something nice out of the kindness of their heart, but rather to get something from you. Furthermore, if you do not reward or praise them they feel it's their entitlement to hurt you. If they have been hurt or dismissed in any way they feel it's their right to retaliate. Do not feel that you need to follow them around praising them all the time.

That is not normal for a relationship.
