Another average person doesn’t realize it, but people are constantly emailing texting and DMing me. There are notifications going off on my phone constantly. I have the most energy for people in real life but on my phone is very minimum when it comes to free time being exchanged
I’m studying dark psychology and I wish more people talked about this:
The most powerful manipulation tactic isn’t gaslighting.
It isn’t guilt-tripping.
It isn’t even emotional blackmail.
Detachment doesn’t happen in a single moment. It develops through countless disappointments, unanswered feelings, and things left unnoticed, until one day you quietly let go without even realizing when your heart finally stopped holding on.
