Terrorists Use Feelings Against You - 1 Minute Read

[hahahmm]

Have you ever been bullied into doing what someone else wants? Have you been afraid of saying something that would upset them and make them yell, scream, cry or even get violent? Did they actually do any of those things? Then you've been terrorized by a terrorists.

"911, What's your Emergency?"

"Give me what I want or I'll cry". Sounds ridiculous, right? But this is exactly what many people experience when dealing with terrorists. And your fear of being seen as "mean" or uncaring is used against you. It's used to beat you into submission and to the will of the terrorists. Emote means to portray an emotion, usually in a dramatic fashion. It's what actors do in tv shows & movies when they pretend to be feeling real emotions. It's what terrorists do in an effort to control you. If you say or do something they don't like they may emote loudly.

We don't negotiate with terrorists.

If you speak the truth and the terrorist starts emoting, don't back down. Don't try to negotiate or give in to their demands. A strong "no" or ignoring their emotions will keep you from being manipulated. Be prepared to walk away from the relationship and you'll have the strength to win any battle.

I don't know if this issue is precisely against terrorism or bullying but honestly, if this is for bullying then yes!
I was bullied and made to do things that I didn't want to only so they don't hurt me later.
During my childhood, I was a pretty easy kid to pick on!
Naive af who would believe anyone without thinking logically... of course people had their fun with this.
Leave that, even now at the age of 21 having recently joined college, I am being ignored/made fun of/being left out and left behind.
I remember when this thing which happened to me in school.
I was no one's favourite/best friend.
No one would wait for me so that we can go together. No one would hold seats for me. No one would ask that where is Yash?
No one would be eager to share secrets with me.
When I was in school, I thought to myself that I'll change this in my college days but the same thing is happening there as well.
It is ridiculous.
Plus my fear of public speaking is fucking my life so bad these days. I might have to speak in front of 150 students which is just not me.
Life is real bad these days. I am being left out even with my roommates.
I wish my graduation finishes soon which is of 5 years because it is just 13 days since college started.

I understand your point and appreciate it. Many people are "terrorists" in relationships because they use their implied threats of acting hurt and making you feel bad to manipulate you into giving them what they want. You may get others commenting and indicating that they don't understand, because it is a different kind of terrorism, but there basic principles is the same.

The best defense is to have enough self-confidence to say "no," and to then stand resolutely on that decision. That is what I have developed over many years.

Are you talking about WOMAN?
"Give me what I want or I'll cry." Yep.

You need to be clear that a woman's brain runs on feelings and emotion.
A man's runs on facts and logic.
And why you simply CANNOT win an argument with a woman - they will always turn it around to be about their FEELINGS.
And you'll see and hear men whining and fussing about not understanding how women thing - NEWSFLASH!!! THEY DON'T!!! It is ALWAYS and ALL ABOUT the FEELZ.
