making the ability to pinpoint the exact traits of a gaslighter without incredibly good personal intuition or training, incredibly difficult. Allowing a gaslighter into your life is not a sign that you are non-perceptive, weak, or anything of the kind. It simply means that they were too sneaky for you to notice, you were too kind and permissive for too long, or those little inklings in your gut of “something is wrong,” were not strong enough to cause you to leave sooner. What matters is that you are seeking help now.
