The worst kind of guilt is when you accept an undeserved guilt.

But what if the person they’re hanging out with is a bad influence and causing problems in the relationship, is an ultimatum still emotional blackmail?

What if I’m the blackmailer, but didn’t realize it... but I feel like she has left me no choice... I answered yes to a couple of the questions, but from the other side of the coin. 😔

Could you please do a video focusing on toxic friends and family I feel there's a lot of "best friend" and toxic family situations that didn't make the video

Stage 3 feels like you'd be also experiencing things that are more subtle. They would simply insert the slight feeling of judgment instead of something that direct. Usually has the energy of "It's nice, but..."

Personally, I wouldn't bother having an empathic discussion and exposing how you feel as a result of that blackmailer's behaviour. You're only giving them more info on how their tactics are working. Once you know they're a blackmailer hopefully you've cut them out of your life by that point. This type of person never changes. Most people are like this so be prepared for a lonely life!

[BrokenSofa]

Whenever I hear that guilt pressure I throw up the walls. It's so obviously selfish behaviour that you should immediately punish it.

I have a question; do the person who is executing the emotional blackmail aware of doing so, or is it most common for the person doing it to be unaware of their actions. Thank you for making these awsome videos!

[thelimitlesslife]

I wonder why the views diminished in your YouTube channel, I believe that the content you make now, and the subjects that you cover are far more interesting than before, but yet the views are lower, this is unfortunate :/

[hehehiyeyo]

For practicing phychology you have to become an extrovert and try to socialize with more people to experience these...😵

[catalystcomet]

I'm going to say it now because I'll probably forget by the end, and so I'm sorry if I'm repeating what you already say, but it's important for people to know that so often this is done unintentionally. I know because I've done it. We've all done it if we look hard enough. I'm not talking about the obvious cases of people who are clearly douchebags, but if you think about it, you've done this and you didn't mean to. So, trying to point it out to somebody can be really helpful, and like me, they might be really grateful that you did.
