Blamed to Protect Their Secrets

Some people are too afraid to live in their truth, so they create a version of themselves the world can clap for—a quiet, phone-scrolling "gentleman," the kind who smiles in public but manipulates in private.


They sit among your friends or family, barely raising their eyes from their screens, showing zero respect for people who walked into your shared space. Yet in front of them, they try to act affectionate, just enough to make you look cold. Just enough to flip the script later.


They subtly pull you down in front of others—mock a word you said, dismiss your efforts, raise an eyebrow to trigger your reactions. These little breadcrumbs? They're not random. They are collecting moments to one day point a finger at you and say, “See? She was the problem.”


And all of this—just to hide the wild, unspoken desires they carry inside. Desires they can’t be honest about, because deep down, they know they won’t be accepted. So instead of truth, they build lies. And to protect those lies, they choose to break you.


If you question them, they won’t answer. If you express your hurt, they’ll call you dramatic. If you try to hold them accountable, they'll say you're bossy, dominant, self-obsessed. But it’s not you—it’s their fear of being seen for who they truly are.


They hide behind words like respect, freedom, and peace, but disrespect your love, your space, and your patience. They preach logic but act on impulse. They speak of maturity but avoid every real conversation that might uncover their truth.


And worst of all?

They’ll blame anyone—friends, partners, even the ones who fed them and held them up when no one else did. Just to protect the lies they’ve wrapped around their desires.


But here’s the truth:

They don’t fear your strength—they fear your clarity.


Because once you see through them, their act crumbles. And they’d rather blame you than face themselves.


“When the truth is too heavy to carry, they throw blame like confetti—hoping it sticks to someone else.”
