If life throws bad stuff at you, throw it back & move on
Spiteful people ruin life for their whole family for multiple generations. Everyone around them suffers due to a multitude of reasons. The list is endless.
I did not want to become an expert at reading abusive relationships, my family forced me to understand what they are.
Some people will see through the manipulator / bully of the family and run a mile instantly, the victims will never know what they missed, honest, decent people, potential, lifelong friends, life partners etc, GONE, because you enable an abuser.
Abusers surround themselves with other abusers, a network of abusive families supporting each other.
Before I learned what the word narcissist even meant I just used to think of them as nasty people who would live life cutting off their noses to spite their faces. I always used to snigger to myself and say they will die alone and hated.
I have had the misfortune to have been involved with so many people like this in my 6 decades, I see it coming true year by year now. Toxic old men and women dying in misery KNOWING their entire life has been a lie.
It all should have been so different. TBC
