If you feel like you can't make your own decisions then it can definitely feel like he's brainwashed you. If that's the case, I would suggest that you need space.

You can be brainwashed by anybody you allow yourself to be brainwashed by, boyfriends included. Just because someone "seems" smart doesn't mean they really are. It just means they are smart enough to make people think they are. But it's all a smoke screen.

I have read of women being seriously brainwashed by their S.O. but this rarely happens.
More probably he is trying to win you over to his way of thinking and it seems to be working.
Attention from a sexy loved one is powerful magic. Many would do anything to please the other .. and lose parts of themselves in the process.
Hard to say if the brainwashing is good or bad .. only you can tell, but unconcious changing is probably bad.
One of the few good brainwashing stories is the famous folk tale of the "9 cow woman" a woman who was thought ugly until her fianance insisted on paying top bride price and telling her how good and beautiful she was .. soon she and the rest of the viliagers thought she was was great.
bad examples probably speek for themselves.

It became a 5 area try, they advised me that I scored 97% or extra helpful on 4 areas of the try, ( they never advised me what those areas coated), on the 5th area I scored 15% This area of the try dealt with judgment, (this how i found out I had I.E.E.D.). later on i offered some books on I.Q. tests and one approximately human beings being a Genius. This latter e book mentioned that all and sundry may well be a genius they only would desire to locate what they excel in. Now basically as a results of fact a individual is a genius that would not recommend they have extra ideal expertise in math, technological expertise and different college matters it potential that they have got extra ideal expertise in one specific undertaking say like a virtuoso in song may well be ignorant in math even inspite of the shown fact that math has a particular relation to song. On a area observe although quadratic equations provide me nightmares. I more suitable a sparkling thank you to multiply and divide via utilising the kinds interior the numbers.

yes it is possible. let me tell you a story lol. i met a guy online, after about a year i was head over heals and so was he. he confessed he was married but was getting a divorce. he moved me to his home, and i ended up living with him and his wife for 2 months before i got my wits about me. he fed me thoughts and in my love for him i allowed him to brainwash me. he made me believe that what we were doing was right. if you love someone enough you will begin to believe the things they tell you. and for me, in my heart i knew it was wrong, and that the things he were saying were wrong, but i stayed with him for a while anyway just because i believed him when he said he would leave her soon. if your relationship is unhealthy i advise that you get out of it ASAP, because until you do he will have a hold over you mentally and emotionally. i hope this helped a little

brainwashed huh! how so? details, details, my girl. I'd run from this guy. brainwashing is no fun. if he is capable of brainwashing you, and then actually does brainwash you, that means he is sneaky. you cant trust a man like that.

Depends on what he is brainwashing you to do or be. If you think it is bad, why do you stay? Ask yourself if you want to be with someone who is treating you that way.

There is a difference between brainwashed and influenced. It sounds like he is persuasive and you don;t know how to demand your own choice or compromise with him.

Run, don't walk, away from this guy if he has such a hold over you that you don't think that you can have your own thoughts any longer. That's not a relationship based on mutual respect and love.

You'll learn with age. It's easy to let a man influence you. Just the plain fact that you're admitting it and acknowledging it is PRICELESS.
