Have you ever experienced a conversation scenario called "deflection", which is a kind of manipulation? Explicitly, the counterpart refuses to respond you directly, but in turn responds in a negative way.

For example, the GF asked the BF: " Do you love me?" The BF answered: "What exactly is the definition of love?"

Another example, the GF asked the BF: "Do you know where is the remote?" The BF responded: "Why don't you make a call to the remote controller?"

What will be your response to the deflection normally?
