Things began to change once I learned to watch a person’s actions and not words. It took me 5 years to remove myself from a relationship that was dead four months in with her first betrayal. After that, I would stick around for four more years, chasing potential and broken promises.

I was desperately waiting for the person to show back up that I had met when we first got together. The only problem with that logic was the person she showed to me in the beginning never existed.

It took a while, but I listened to her actions and not her words. I quickly learned if her mouth was moving, there was a high possibility that she was lying 99% of the time.

If you are in a manipulative relationship, make a plan to exit. I don’t regret the 5 years I spent with her; I just wish I had listened to my intuition all along. Some lessons are learned the hard way.

If you can relate to any of the eight signs below, planning your exit sooner rather than later is suggested. Life is too short to deal with manipulation and betrayal.

  • They repeatedly lies when they know it hurts you.
  • You are only a priority when there is no one else.
