This is really interesting to write:

  1. They will give you small thing for free like food or some small help. Like small loan or may be mental support.
  2. They will talk to you only if you are useful.
  3. They will find what interest you what motivates you and they will talk about those things. In fact they will show you superiority in that. They will give you small lie that they have done these things in your interested area.
  4. They will be very friendly initially.
  5. They will be extremely jealous of you if you do something good.
  6. They will try to discourage you if you start to go ahead.
  7. They will do less work and will talk more.
  8. They are extremely dependent on other people but think they are good with people.
  9. They will not share with you what they think is valuable.

Understand most of the time you are being manipulated by someone. It can be your friend or your manager or your government or the guy who is trying to sell you something.

What’s the solution for all that? Identification. Once you understand how you are being manipulated you will escape the loop.

Never goes on what someone says. Always observe the action. What someone does always tells you the real intention of a person.
