Manipulative & Controlling Sentences, Vol. 2

(Sentences for manipulative muses, and for those that have had enough of it. Adjust phrasing where needed)

"Did you believe you could change me in the way I've changed you?"

"Why do you have to control everything?"

"Are you trying to manipulate me? Because I'm long past the point of needing my ego stroked."

"You don't want me to have anything in my life that's not you."

"I'm just trying to help you see the truth."

"Isn't it just easier to say yes?"

"Why do you treat me like this?"

"I promise you, you will come to love me."

"You have no right to control my life!"

"I will not be manipulated like this."

"However you think you are going to manipulate this situation to your advantage, think again."

"I care about you. I want to make sure you're making the right decisions."

"Do you think you deserved to be loved?"

"I'm perfectly capable of making my own decisions!"

"See? This is all I ever wanted for you. For both of us."

"Don't you want to be saved?"

"Would you rather I lied?"

"Would a true friend ask you to risk this much while risking nothing himself?"

"Is this you talking or him?"

"I know this all sounds insane, but how does any of what's happened today make sense if I'm lying?"

"I have a very odd feeling that you're taking advantage of me."

"Don't you trust me? Haven't I always kept you alive?"

"It's not a lie if it's going to come true eventually."

"I thought you were my friend, but you manipulated me."

"You can't leave me. You need me."

Dr. Genevieve Birch attending NYE at Top of the Standard

Viva normally doesn't do holiday things outside of her home--they're expensive, crowded, and not nearly as good as something intimate and homemade.

This year is different, however. This year, her kid is visiting, and she wants to give them the shiniest, most perfect New York City holiday season to help make up for, well, all the times she wasn't there. This effort, like most of them, are wasted on the kid as they immediately left Viva to go get wasted with other people their age.

“Well it’s only for a weekend, of course. People have to get on with their ordinary lives, old books or no. I thought you’d like it, a bit of a trip and someDISINTEGRATING copies of Keats. You’ll come, won’t you?”

"Course I will," Don smiles, warm and kind. He can't help but induldge David, for the most part. "You know how much I love Keats."

It's true; Don does have a particular fondness for Keats, and old books too. But his reason for going along with David is not necessarily the literature.
