Gaslighting is a dating term that comes up often and not in positive way.

It can be described as a form of manipulation that seeks to trick someone’s mind and emotions for personal gain. Although gaslighting can happen in different relationships such as a parent-child relationship or a friendship, it’s still mostly associated with romantic relationships.
