Have you ever been manipulated, lied, or tried to control by a "toxic" partner? This person may have been a psychopath, narcissist, or had borderline disorder. You have been betrayed, used, misled. You have been seduced and seduced. They took your money, your life and broke your heart

And you stand, repeating in bewilderment: "How could I be such a fool?"

There is an old Spanish proverb "Leo thinks everyone is like him."

Honest people expect others to be honest. It does not occur to someone who is not a thief to lock his belongings, because he has no idea that someone can take someone else's.

And here is a person who is in a relationship with a psychopath, narcissist or manipulator endlessly repeats the same questions:

How could you not notice anything?

How could I choose this?

Why am I so gullible?

If you, too, torture yourself with thoughts like "how could I be so deceived?", Perhaps the following explanation will be useful to you

I found this definition in an article on manipulation and behavior control:

"Psychopaths are full of contempt for the so-called best qualities of good-natured people. They deliberately use their openness and trust in the world against themselves. Worst of all, they do all this for their own pleasure. It is not fear, pain or self-doubt that pushes them towards such behavior, but an inability to show concern and a desire for domination."

Your gullibility and naivety are natural, because you are an honest person.

And one more thing: the opposite of openness and trust is cynicism, suspicion and condemnation of one and all.

Do you need such an alternative?
