If Someone You Love Makes You Act Out Of Guilt, It's Not A Good Sign - Here's What To Do!
"I'm old and sick, and I'll get a heart attack and die if you won't do what I want."
"You're a worthless husband who can't even buy his wife a new iPhone. Oh wait. You simply don't love me, right?"
"I nearly died while giving birth to you. Now, be grateful and do what I say"
Have you heard anything like this from your parents or romantic partners?
This is emotional blackmail. And it's just as bad as the name implies.
Emotional blackmail is a manipulation technique that's meant to control your actions by tapping into strong emotions such as guilt, obligation, and fear.
It may appear innocent, but in fact it's a huge red flag. If you give in once or twice, the blackmailer's demands will become more and more outrageous. For example, they may skillfully isolate you from your social circle or force you to give up things that bring you joy. If they do it slowly enough, you won't even notice that you're being cut off from your support network and basically held hostage!
Why do emotional blackmailers try to manipulate you with fear, obligation, and guilt?
First of all, because it's such an effective manipulation technique! If done skillfully, it can put you under their absolute control.
However, not all emotional blackmailers are inherently evil - some people just don't know how to talk about their wants and needs in a direct way. Others have a personality disorder that makes them think blackmailing is an acceptable behavior. Of course, this doesn't mean you should tolerate it!
This book, written by acclaimed psychologist Emory Green, will help you understand your unique situation and find smart ways to deal with it.
With this book, you will:
- Understand why your blackmailer is behaving in this way
- Deal with emotional blackmailing in your family
- Recognize a manipulative romantic partner before they get hold of you
- Set personal boundaries and protect them
- Communicate in an assertive, non-defensive manner
- Build the mental toughness necessary to resist manipulation
- Realize if YOU are emotionally blackmailing someone - and STOP doing it
Dealing with emotional blackmail can be very challenging. Emotional blackmail usually comes from the people we love most, such as parents and romantic partners, and it can be very painful to realize that they've been manipulating you for years.
Sometimes, if the blackmailer won't change their behavior, you have no other choice but to terminate the relationship - and this can be an extremely difficult decision, especially if you have to cut a parent out of your life. But remember that you're doing this to save yourself - you're not a bad son or daughter!
This book will give you the courage to listen to your intuition, confront your abusers, and make hard decisions if necessary.

"Emory Green stumbles on his passion to explore the darkest of human nature in his 2 decades of practice in Business Psychology. Having worked with key leaders of giant industries, politics, and diverse people who are committed to winning at all costs, he is witness to the dark secrets of success. A trusted consultant and advisor, he has been both a friend and a foe to the most effective manipulators of their fate, and that often involves other people's fate, of course. CEOs, great leaders, charming Casanovas, and masters of manipulation, they all have their way of using tactics and having specific behaviors that facilitate their effectiveness in their crafty crafts and success. Emory Green has spent more than a decade studying these people and this led him to explore the dark side, so that others may see the light. Emory Green has now retired and is living a good life in his Alaskan home, hoping to share what he knew about darkness. Explore Dark Psychology with Emory Green as your willing guide. ""There are days when all I see is light because I knew what darkness was. And I understood. In all of us, there's some darkness somewhere within, and also among us, there are some whose darkness they can't be without."" Emory Green Hello World, This is indeed strange Psychology and a rather shadowy aspect of Psychology we know. I love writing for ordinary people so that we all see the extraordinary in our ordinary lives. If you are curious and want to end up wiser, I'd be honored to guide you through the murky steps. This is your invitation to the dark side! And this is a much safer way than what I had to tread. There was a time that I knew less than I know now. I've been scammed, I've been manipulated, all that while still practicing my profession and being someone with power in my own enterprise. And I know you know fairly that that's a double blow to my ego. But more than my titles and achievements, I am glad to commit to being a learner of life. So, I observed, I learned, then I responded with better knowledge. I wrote my books for people like you who do not want to show off as smarter, only better than clever. Those who walk in darkness can eventually see through darkness. But don't wait until all the lights are out and the darkness engulfs you, because it will. Learn to see in the dark."
