Emotional blackmail can occur in the family or couple, as well as in friendship. A blackmailer's intention is to exploit the other guy, to make him a person who obeys his wishes. It can sometimes be done so subtly that the other may not know it is being exploited. Here are four ways to blackmail and how to avoid falling into this kind of manipulation.

Manipulation is a hidden psychological device, the purpose of which is to force a person, contrary to his interests, to perform the actions you need. An essential factor of manipulation is to make sure that a person himself wants to do it. Someone will ask, “Why not just ask for a human?”. And by what to ask, it’s not always easy. In some cases, this is not at all appropriate. Regardless of the scale, any request is still the responsibility. By asking, we confess our desires, somewhere in helplessness, somewhere in unprofessionalism.

Those who cannot connect with others or have the ability to disconnect from their emotions deliberately may be part of this obscure triad. There is a set of personality traits that define narcissism, Machiavellism, and psychopathy. In the most extreme cases, individuals who share the characteristics of this triad become criminals or get lost in the broad spectrum of mental illness. However, some do not meet the criteria for a psychiatric diagnosis and live with us daily.
