[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's totally in the wrong here, no question.

But please stop using gaslighting to mean manipulation.  They aren't the same.  Gaslighting would be telling you that he never said you made him sick; that in fact he was never sick so he doesn't know what you are talking about, and why are you making this up to paint him as the bad guy?  Gaslighting is way more severe than 'I'm sorry but what I said wasn't that baaaaaaad.'[/quote]

Um. It’s absolutely gaslighting when someone says something that songs like: “I was just joking. You didn’t actually think I was being serious, did you? Gosh you’re so sensitive.” That’s gaslighting. He’s trying to make her think her reality isn’t real…the reality being that he acted like a jerk, continued acting like a jerk and then claimed he was just joking and how could she POSSIBLY think he was actually serious (even though all signs pointed to ‘Not Joking’) unless she’s just overly sensitive. He was only “just joking” AFTER she became upset with him. Gaslighting is a form of manipulation. But really…why are you trying to gatekeep gaslighting??[/quote]
