- Subtle guilt trips through self-victimization
- Actively being a paragon of virtue, to use as leverage later ("If I'm perfect, then you have no excuse to be upset with me.")
- Generally passive-aggressive (occasionally downright aggressive if they feel justified or people they love are threatened)
- Self-pity/withdrawal/self-castigation
- Mentally able to block out things they don't want to address (denial and repression)
- Can keep record of wrongs easily
- Prone to wild speculation when things are forced outside the box (i.e., weak N abilities)
Those are the things I generally have experienced.
