When Trolls Run Relationships

A quick guide to the hidden tactics that turn love into conflict — and how to repair fast.

By CPH Therapy

You love each other. So why do some conversations leave you feeling confused, small, or quietly defeated?

This book explains what many couples sense but can’t name: when emotional safety drops, tactics appear. Not because your partner is evil — but because threat triggers tricks.

Inspired by attachment theory (Bowlby, Sue Johnson/EFT) and the classic catalogue of argument tricks often linked to Schopenhauer, When Trolls Run Relationships gives you a simple map of the patterns that hijack communication: dismissal, mind-reading, character judgments, traps, derailing into details, sarcasm, contempt, and shutdown.

Inside you’ll get:

• The Aftertaste Test (know when something is “off” fast)

• A Pause / Repair / Continue decision tree

• The Heart Rule and Respect Reset to stop escalation

• A 60-second repair that separates impact, intent, and identity

• The 36 Troll Index with antidote lines you can use immediately

This is not a long, heavy therapy workbook. It’s a clear, practical read for couples (and individuals) who want better communication, faster repair, and more safety in the bond — without endless exercises.

Less tactics. More tenderness.
