I like you have manipulated my wife throughout our M also. For me the manipulation stemmed from my anger and low self esteem. Since working on my own happiness and my anger I have overcome my need to manipulate for the most part. When we feel we are losing control we manipulate. Get rid of the need to control and you will not manipulate.
