When does it become manipulative to beg your partner not to break up with you? Is it possible to manipulate without knowing it? Is it manipulative to think you did nothing wrong in the relationship?

It can be and also be careful that you yourself are not narcisistic. Not saying yiu are, but people who miss it and wonder the rest of their lives.

I think it is in a way manipulative, even if it’s unintentional. instead of saying “please please don’t leave me i’ll do anything” maybe it would be better to simply ask if the other person is willing to try to talk things through with you and try to make the relationship work out. also, it’s not manipulative to think you didn’t do anything wrong in the relationship, but it’s pretty unlikely that you didn’t. every healthy relationship has ups and downs, and taking accountability for your actions and learning from them is a huge part of maturing. relationships are hard though honestly… i’ve definitely been taking a break from them altogether lol
While I understand not wanting to be broken up with, we can't really control what others want or do. So try your best not to try and convince them that you are great (which you are) and just keep being yourself and learn to stand on your own. I struggle a lot with being independent especially in a relationship.

It's manipulative from the start, yes it is but it's still your responsibility to try and figure out why you resort to manipulation. No it isn't but it's very unlikely you did nothing wrong, relationships run both ways.

Manipulation becomes evident when one person tries to control or influence another's emotions, decisions, or actions for their own benefit. It is possible to manipulate without knowing it, as sometimes people may not be aware of their actions' impact on others. Thinking you did nothing wrong in a relationship isn't necessarily manipulative; however, it's essential to be open to understanding and acknowledging your partner's perspective and feelings.
