[quote=Anonymous][quote]Do you think she really knew the whole time? And when she started to know, did she fully know right away? As the wife in this, I can assure you that if she was lying to you, she was also lying to herself, and probably had to over and over again. I definitely had to gaslight myself, many times over, while I processed. [/quote] The term "gaslighting" comes from a movie (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslight_(1944_film)) about a husband who tries to manipulate his wife into thinking she is crazy. As applied in everyday use, it means one person trying to convince another the other person is crazy by manipulating them. You may have deluded yourself (and you definitely deceived your husband), but cannot gaslight yourself. Watch the movie. Learn something.[/quote]
