But while manipulators often play the victim, the reality is that they are the ones who have caused the problem, she adds. A person who is targeted by manipulators who play the victim often try to help the manipulator in order to stop feeling guilty, Stines says. Targets of this kind of manipulation often feel responsible for helping the victim by doing whatever they can to stop their suffering. Nice Guy. In fact, exploiting the norms and expectations of reciprocity is one of the most common forms of manipulation, says Jay Olson, a doctoral researcher studying manipulation at McGill University.
A salesperson, for example, might make it seem like because he or she gave you a deal, you should buy the product. In a relationship, a partner might buy you flowers then request something in return. Often, manipulators try one of two tactics, says Olson. The first is the foot-in-the-door technique, in which someone starts with a small and reasonable request—like, do you have the time?
The door-in-the-face technique is the opposite—it involves someone making a big request, having it rejected, then making a smaller one, Olson explains. INFPs can be somewhat trusting of people, especially when they truly care for them. INFPs as they get older will likely develop tougher skin, and will find themselves a bit more guarded and skeptical of others. They will attempt to only let the right people into their hearts, as a way to protect themselves from any further hurt.
INFPs are smart people, and can often sense when someone is trying to manipulate them, but sometimes they go against their better judgment. ENFPs can be somewhat gullible and easily manipulated, but at the same time they have a natural skill for manipulation.
They are good at convincing people of whatever they want to, but will likely not do this for long. The ENFP might play a trick on someone, but will quickly admit that they were lying in that situation.
ENFPS dislike feeling like someone is trying to manipulate them, but they might struggle to notice it. Younger ENFPs have a hard time noticing manipulation, simply because they are positive and open people. As the ENFP gets older though, they will likely develop a better sense of others and will become less trusting of shady people.
INTJs are extremely difficult to manipulate, and often are great at sensing when someone is attempting to sway their actions. INTJs prefer to make their own independent choices, and require plenty of facts and date to be swayed in any way. They avoid people who will attempt to manipulate them, and will likely cut those types of individuals out of their lives completely. INTJs are naturally skeptical people, and will quickly sense when someone is trying to manipulate them.
They will become angered by people close to them who want to manipulate the INTJ, and will likely express their disapproval openly. ENTJs are naturally skeptical people, and will not be easy to manipulate at all. They often have their guard up, and will pay close attention to the intentions of others.
They only want people around them who they can trust fully, and who will not attempt to harm them in any way. ENTJs can often sense when someone is not trustworthy, and will certainly not be swayed by that individual. ENTJs are very independent people, who prefer to make their own decisions. They do not let the opinions of others push them in a different direction, which makes them rather difficult to manipulate.
INTPs are often extremely skeptical of other people, which makes them naturally hard to manipulate. They constantly have their guard up, and are almost expecting people to try and manipulate them. They have a hard time believing most people, and will do plenty of research to back up whatever information they receive. INTPs rarely let people in, simply because they hate feeling manipulated. INTPs do not want someone to make a fool of them, which often makes them untrusting individuals.
Instead of trusting someone and being hurt, INTPs would rather keep a safe distance. ENTPs are naturally skilled at reading people, and are especially good at avoiding manipulation. They can often sense when someone is attempting to manipulate them, and will turn the tables rather quickly.
ENTPs might even find a way to manipulate that person back, as a way to dish out some much needed justice. They truly dislike when someone is trying to manipulate or push them in any way, and prefer to make decision on their own. ENTPs are independent people, which causes them to become rather frustrated by manipulative people.
The easiest people to manipulate are those that don't demand a lot of information, are open to messages from authority figures and are willing to make decisions on a hunch, particularly if there's a promise of short-term gains.
