My Mother In Law says stuff like this to me. I'm trying to teach myself to identify the signs so I quit letting her get me all worked up. I know, "If you love me, you'll..." is one of them. What are some other examples?

"You know, I really don't ask for much..."
"Well So-and-so would do that for me"

My husband uses,
" I have a lot of stress at work, hence I should be treated like a king at home".
" I work hard at the office and you are a stay at home woman and childless so you should provide me with a relaxing time and I do not have any time or urge to talk with you"
So basically the emotional blackmail phrase is " I work hard and so you have to......"
