In a way it seems like instinct. When someone asks why you like a certain scene for instance, I've noticed that the person will go into detail and try persuading you into seeing it like they do. In theory it could be instincts we are born with or conditioned into.

True. If you just criticize the other person, all you will do is get them on the defensive.

Sounds like the classic passive-aggressive relationship. First they pretend to like everything that the other person likes and then overtime they eliminate them one by one through criticizing and nitpicking the person's behavior as unsatisfactory then they only give positive reinforcement when the other person does what they want.
(the first tactic is to get the person's trust and defenses down)
(the second is to recondition their emotional want for attention towards what is eventually offered as the only option that will grant them positive approval).
You can get a master's degree in this by dating a romantic Sociopath.
