You know you are getting manipulated when you start doubting yourself a lot but your heart feels like no there is something wrong what you couldn't clearly see now.

You can't really avoid them. The best thing to do with manipulative people is learn their tactics so you know how to react. Many of them aren't even conscious of what they're doing so it's easier than you might think.
