I know several people that try to put guilt trips on me, and for some reason I let them get to me, but I must learn to stop feeling guilty
I have friends who have guilt-tripped me many times. I have never liked. Sometimes they had seen it on my face I didn’t like it.
I don’t like it when people use guilt technique for their own advantage.
people try to send me on guilt trips, but that’s not my way
I have had my share and not always easy to ignore.
We can only do our best …
and sometimes it helps knowing that it wasn’t your mistake but still you could grant that request …
We all have plenty to feel guilty of probably. I don’t need anyone trying to give me the guilt trip.
You shouldn’t!
You should not be blamed for doing nothing wrong!
So very true and apt. Now, in fairness sometimes parents use guilt trips with children to push a specific lesson.
Relationships are given and takes. In many cases, the line between blame and guilt becomes the issue.
Great article!
Thank you, Doc.
I think if the intention was not to “profit” or get something out of the guilt trip but to educate the child, it’s fine, as long as you don’t cross the line or exaggerate the consequences.
In most cases, I don’t think anyone should be blamed when he/she does nothing wrong.
I like your version a lot. Very clean and easy to use!
Thanks! You helped today!!!
Thanks, glad to know it helps 🙂
