Welcome to Adam’s Masterclass in Manipulation

Ah yes, dear readers, step right up and witness the Adam, a man so committed to rewriting history that even George Orwell would be impressed. This section is a shrine—nay, a museum—dedicated to showcasing Adam’s totally-not-manipulative behavior surrounding the adoption he swears he wasn’t pushing. Spoiler alert: he absolutely was. But don’t take my word for it! We’ve got the texts to prove it, and boy, are they a wild ride.

Now, sure, there’s the occasional “I don’t want you to make your decision based on my feelings” sprinkled in for plausible deniability. Bravo, Adam, truly a masterstroke in gaslighting! Those moments are the text equivalent of him shrugging and saying, “But it’s your choice!” while pointing to a burning bridge labeled “Your Future.” Inspirational, really.

But as the adoption deadline loomed closer? Oh, honey, the gloves came off. Adam, the self-appointed prophet of doom, swooped in with chilling warnings about how keeping the baby would ruin your life and devastate Ava. Like some kind of doomsday preacher, he painted a vivid picture of your life descending into chaos, complete with Ava sobbing in the background like an overly dramatic soap opera. He must’ve thought he was the hero of your story, bravely saving you from yourself, when really, he was just wielding guilt like a chainsaw.

Let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: his ability to subtly imply that you were basically signing Ava up for a lifetime of emotional scarring. Because who doesn’t love a partner who weaponizes your love for your child to get what he wants? Truly, Adam, your selflessness knows no bounds.

So, as you scroll through these texts, enjoy the artistry of Adam’s mental gymnastics. Admire the finesse with which he tiptoes around taking responsibility while simultaneously steering the entire ship toward adoption. Grab some popcorn, because this is manipulation at its finest—messy, contradictory, and 100% Adam.
