The master manipulator, ruthless and scheming. They turn people against each other, exploit weaknesses, and play with people's emotions to get what they want. The puppeteer will blame others, deny wrongdoing, and use guilt to control the situation. You may find yourself caught by the puppeteer, pulled this way and that or engaged in mind games with no way of winning. If kept in this position for too long, your puppeteer may not even have to do anything because you will manipulate yourself and simply think it's how things are.
If you're the one pulling the strings, convincing people that what's best for you is also what's best for them, your manipulations may begin to control you. The need for control will take priority and the prevarications and contrivances will become habits you can't break, preventing you from having relationships that provide love and support.
