Manipulative people are used to tell simpler things in a more emotional and intense way to gain your sympathy and make you feel sorry for them.
Whatever the situation is, these people always play a victim card to prove themselves right and they are so convincing so that you will always end up feeling guilty.
When you are sad, they act like sadder and when you are happy they act like more joyful. They always copy your emotions just to seek attention.
Manipulative people always used this tactic to show you that they are upset with you. They don’t pick your calls or respond to your message so that you feel guilty for even the thing which you have not done.
These people are always trying to make you feel guilty. They would remind you about the favours which they had done for you and used it as a leverage whenever they want something.
Compliments are good but these people used this for their own benefit. They over compliment you, praise you and these might not be sincere compliments. They do this for gaining sympathy and support.
Manipulative people never want to listen others story and if they mistakenly listen then they always respond through their own story, just to prove that their situation is important and more difficult.
