Emotional Manipulation -“She Says I’m amazing!”

Dear S.Q. I’m a handy guy and enjoy fixing things. All my past companions contributed in their own ways to elevate the relationship. I like a woman from a dating site who says I’m amazing but she lines up projects for me to do around her house while she runs errands or does hobbies. I feel used.

Dear Used. Don’t ignore your gut. Figure out if you’re intentionally being manipulated as an unpaid handyman because she’s a “taker,” and you’re the poor sap who’s the “giver” in an unbalanced relationship. Or, will her contributions develop into a loving partnership with time? 3 months of closely assessing this major deal-breaker should give you all the information you need. Believe your gut, head, and the facts, not your ego. -SQ
