- Please don’t let anything I say lead to a confrontation. I’ll do anything.
- I can’t stop focusing on your well being and solving your problems.
- I feel great when I solve your problems and give you what I think you need.
- All those funny things that you do you do simply to spite me. To manipulate my feelings and desires.
- If you’re ok. I’m ok…
- When I feel good about myself, it is because you like me and approve of me.
- Every bit of my mind is given to you. I need to protect you and have just a little control over you.
- Are my values ok? What’s your opinion about my opinion?
- I see myself years from now, doing what’s best for you.
- I will be perfectly happy doing what YOU want to do.
- All my hopes and dreams are not as important as spending time with you.
- If I give you whatever you want, you’ll let me be happy, right?
