A storm of emotions in a romantic relationship can erupt for two reasons.
In the first case, everything is not so hopeless, because we are talking about mutual love. But sometimes your partner simply manipulates you mercilessly.
There are 5 signs that indicate a man with whom you should immediately break off relations.
Flirting with other girls in your presence
The man will assure you that everything is harmless, but in fact everything is quite serious.
Firstly, a person has low self-esteem, and it is important for him to raise it by confirming his own relevance.
Secondly, this is obvious manipulation, playing on your feelings.
Humiliates you in public
Another proof that you are dealing with a fan of emotional blackmail is the desire to correct, teach or ridicule you in front of other people.
Reminisces about other girls
If a man only once told about a girl from a previous relationship, then there is no reason to worry. If this happens constantly, then it is time to sound the alarm.
The same goes for stories about attention from an attractive colleague or friend. The manipulator enjoys watching you suffer and not wanting to share it with anyone.
Disappears and appears in your life
Some use this technique to enhance feelings and affection. The man balances between minimal distance, which is suddenly replaced by inaccessibility.
This makes the woman wonder about the next meeting. The manipulator knows perfectly well that you do not let this thought out of your head and enjoys it.
Feelings arise when it is profitable
For some time the man shows indifference, does not call or write, and then instantly appears on the horizon and showers you with compliments (gifts).
The manipulator demonstrates such a surge of feelings when he expects a date with a continuation in the bedroom.
Usually, when everything has already happened, the big words and promises will be forgotten until next time.
