Manipulation of feelings and using guilt in order to get someone to do something not of their own choosing can signal controlling behavior!. We all use manipulation and sometimes guilt to change people's minds, but to do it in excess underlies pathology (disease)!. If you're talking about a situation that involves one "fighting" for the relationship by persuading the other to stay, then that might be considered normal behavior!. When a partner says "If you really loved me, you'd stay with me" the issue may really be with different relationship priorities!. One partner may value trust, fidelity, loyalty, and companionship; while the other partner may value friendship, sexual chemistry, and adventure!. Talking to each other about what you expect and want from a partner is very important!. You may find that you're both looking for very different things and just didn't realize it!. The best of luck to all parties involved!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
All relationships have a control element - that's how they work!. The problem is when one person takes on too much control and suffocates the other person to an unreasonable or paranoid level - or if the caring is no longer mutual and a person feels they need to stay in a relationship because of fear!. Fear of their partner hurting them or themselves, or someone else!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
That is very typical of emotional abuse!. Maybe you need to reevaluate this relationship!. There are domestic violence programs where you can seek help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
