Some people never change.
Not because they can’t.
But because they don’t want to.
They thrive on control. They live for the drama. And they get a sick sense of satisfaction from watching chaos unfold—especially when they’re not the one holding the match.
They don’t light the fire.
They hand someone else the torch.
🧠 A Special Kind of Abuser: The Puppet Master
You know the type.
The one who never directly threatens, but always “knows someone who might.”
The one who smiles in public but plants rumors in private.
The one who doesn’t want to get their hands dirty—because they have others do the damage for them.
They manipulate.
They recruit.
They spin stories that turn good people into weapons.
And in the past? I was one of them.
I was the one they manipulated.
The one they trained to fire their bullets.
The one who took the fall, while they played innocent in the background.
But not anymore.
🔁 The Pattern Always Repeats
These kinds of people don’t move on—they move targets.
And the cycle begins again:
- They find someone new
- They charm and manipulate
- They slowly introduce “an enemy” (usually their ex)
- They get the new person to prove their loyalty by joining in on the smear campaign, the harassment, the silent revenge
And to the new partner, it might all feel justified.
They’re being told a carefully curated story.
They believe they’re “helping” or “defending love.”
But here’s the hard truth:
He’s building up to it.
Whatever he did to the last partner, he’s preparing to do again.
And when it starts, it doesn’t stop.
It escalates.
It spreads.
It takes over.
⚠️ To the New Partner (Yes, You)
You may feel important right now.
Chosen. Protected. Empowered.
But what you’re in is a role, not a relationship.
You’re not the first to be flattered, used, and weaponized.
And unless you wake up, you won’t be the last.
Because when his anger turns (and it always does), it will come for you, too.
The love bombing will fade.
The paranoia will start.
The control will tighten.
And then one day—you’ll be the one watching your peace fall apart while he pretends to be the victim.
I genuinely hope you never reach that point.
But if you do, just know—there’s life after him.
And there are people who’ve walked this path before you.
💬 Final Thoughts
Some people don’t want peace.
They want power.
And when they can’t control you, they’ll try to destroy what they couldn’t possess.
They’ll recruit others.
They’ll bait reactions.
They’ll whisper lies.
But I see it now.
I know the pattern.
And I’m not playing anymore.
Good luck to the next player.
I hope you wake up before the game turns on you.
