What is triangulation?

Triangulation is a tactic used by manipulators, narcissists and gaslighters to instill jealousy and uncertainty. It is often used by a narcissist to describe the other people in the relationship as the abusers so that they can focus on those mistakes while obscuring their own actions. The triangle is a form of manipulation where one is unsure who is telling the truth
