I think that is the point. You must lead her/him down step by step
always providing the one who is in charge with more and worse
information, material, etc. to blackmail with.
On the other hand you can change the attitude of the blackmailed
character by learning to live with the situation. This might be, that
he/she starts to get aroused by it or maybe more realistic just gets used.
But there is a major problem.
The more the character gets used to the situation the less is the
humiliation for her/him
