This applied not only to threats and bribes, but even acts that were meant to be purely to my benefit, to punish people for trying to anticipate my desires.
Is it the anticipation of your desires that you try to punish or something more specific to trying to force their anticipations onto you? I ask because most people spend significant social effort to train others into anticipating their desires.
I suppose it was really more the latter than the former that I was reacting to, but my conscious interpretation of it was as a backlash against having my desires be understandable to others, and therefore manipulable.
