Have you been Gaslighted? How?

What happened?

How did you deal with that?

Well, there's man (self-proclaiming that he's a life coach) who teaches other men to have multiple wives. He suggests Gaslighting to brainwash women to think they are not good enough and let men do whatever they want. Of course, people disagree with this toxic tactic.

Gaslighting is a very obvious manipulating technique, i've been reading many books throughout my life about psychology, and I did some pretty unethical things back in high school regarding manipulation.

When it comes to dealing with a gaslighter, the first step is to clearly identify the behavior as gaslighting. Once you’ve done that, it’s crucial to confront them, by that I mean make them angry. Then, simply cease social interactions with them. The primary objective of gaslighting is to gain control over someone. By recognizing and addressing their behavior, you remove their control, thereby neutralizing the manipulation.
(Speaking for my own experience of course.)

Gaslighting multiple women into a polygamous married is definitely pushing the envelope of possibility. I doubt that house of cards will survive long.

I don't think I've ever been gaslit especially not by a girlfriend. But that's because I'm far too bullheaded.

And of course I never use such tactics either. I prefer the what you see is what you get approach

I think we all have been gaslighted. It can happen during casual conversation. For example: They may say things such as, “Are you sure about that? You have a bad memory,” or “I think you are forgetting what really happened.” There are also the instances when someone is pretending to not understand the conversation or refusing to listen to make a person doubt themselves.

I probably have, but I just get on with my life. Trivial nonsense doesn't affect me at all.

I sure got stood up by a woman who chatted to me even phoned on a dating app and she totally stood me up. I dialled her and she's like, flat as a flat toner can be, she's like "I changed, my mind" goodness how deadpan tone can someone be lol. Ah well, some people are just players in a negative way. No grudges, to this day it's just a story now is all. Just a story 😅🤣
