1. Whichever role in the Drama Triangle that you do NOT know how to do -- on purpose as a procedure -- is the one that you will get blackmailed and threatened with the most. The other person’s switch between P-R-V is often frightening and confusing for you -- because you don’t like experiencing that in yourself--and that is how others use their POWER on you.

2. Two people can NOT say in the same Drama Role for very long. People unconsciously change Roles in the Drama Triangle to maintain their illusion of power. If you change Drama Roles on purpose - as a procedure - you can control yourself and minimize the damage to both of you when they get stuck in their Drama and manipulation to maintain power.

3. People have a favorite scripted Role and a favorite scripted switch to another Role. These are learned and fine-tuned in childhood and as grown-ups. If you know them, you can avoid that Dramatic Switch which generates the unpleasant payoff that follows.
