Fine. See if I care. It’s not like I spent all this time making these plans…The
guilt trip is one of the more aggravating manipulative tactics. It’s also one of
the more common to the point where it’s become a cliché, a lever pulled by
shrewd spouses or sitcom mothers-in-law. Whether done with a smile, silent look,
or spoken few sentences, the strategy relies upon making a person feel guilt or
remorse so they bend to the other’s will. And while, yes, guilt-tripping is
often done in a way that’s not meant to harm, it’s coercive and, done regularly,
can result in strong feelings of resentment. After all, guilt can be such a
powerful motivator that the tactic is less a trip than a trap, one that can be
tough to escape.
