00:00in a relationship the biggest red flag isn't rage yelling at you it's how they respond when you say

00:06that something hurt you and the reason that i think it's more dangerous because it's a lot

00:10harder to spot and pinpoint one example might be if you say hey it kind of hurt my feelings when

00:15you made that joke in front of your friends and they'll go relax it was just a joke or you're

00:19always so dramatic you bring up something that made you uncomfortable or hurt you and suddenly

00:25you're the problem make it make sense you're the one starting something you're the one that never

00:31lets things go you're the one that's too sensitive and the tricky part is they probably didn't scream

00:36this at you they probably didn't raise their voice and they're just slowly teaching you not to bring

00:41things up at all and that's the danger because it doesn't look like abuse it looks like a conversation

00:46that just went wrong like a misunderstanding maybe and you start to question yourself okay maybe i

00:52am asking for too much maybe i am dramatic sensitive overthinker but you're not because a

01:25carefully and even then they shut it down they flip it they turn it into your fault and when you stop

01:31speaking up all together that's when they win the most dangerous kind of manipulation is the one that

01:37whispers maybe it's you maybe you're the problem so if someone is making you feel bad for expressing

01:42hurt you're not in a healthy relationship you're in kind of a power dynamic and the longer you stay the

01:48harder it gets to see it clearly for what it is so just because they didn't raise their voice
