While guilt can sometimes be a good motivator, it is also often used as a weapon, especially in relationships. We put people on guilt trips to manipulate feelings and make them do or not do what we want. Sometimes we don't even realize we're using guilt as a weapon in our relationships until enough damage has been done, and we see the hurt we've caused. No one wins when we play the "guilt game," so how do I break the habit of using guilt to get my way? What are some signs I need to look for to see if I'm hurting my relationships with guilt?
