Friends : What Is Manipulation And How Do You Stop It From Being Done Once Its Recognised

I told this lad that I liked him and he said he had feelings for me too, however we decided not to do anything about it because we didnt want to ruin our friendship. Then he goes and sleeps with 3 of my friends (on different occasions) then asks me if i want to have a drink with him! I think Im being manipulated but Im unsure what it actually is. I feel emotionally distressed, how do I handle this? ~~~ carol ~~~

Best Answer To Friends Question

I dont think you are being manipulated or you would have ended up like your friends he obviously has more respect for you and sees you as a friend unlike those other girls he slept with I dont imagine for one minute he has any feelings for those 3 girls so dont get emotionally distressed, youre not in a relationship with him so he is free to do whatever he wants really isnt he? just be aware of what sort of person he can be and stay friends for now, he sounds like a bit of a player so dont give him your heart easily

Answer 1

Manipulation is when a person tricks you into doing something you might not have otherwise done, but its not completely outside the possibility of things you might do. You7re not being manipulaed, youre being toyed with.

Answer 2

You are being manipulated and the way it is being done is nasty and he will not stop doing it. You handle it by walking away. If you dont you are telling him that he can have you and other people. All he has to do is promise a few times and you will belive him. Get out free, NOW. And if you dont it really will be your fault.
