Funny enough she actually speaks well of her mother but she probably has Stockholm syndrome bc her family is dysfunctional as hell

I feel like walking away just makes her feel more comfortable to do it again. I’ve tried to be the bigger person and it historically hasn’t worked. She just keeps pushing it

a variation of this that i use a pretty good amount is “what an interesting thing to say out loud”

They didn’t have the best relationship but bc of our culture she still kinda took care of him and made excuses for his bad behavior bc out of obligation which I think is pathetic

I could but I don’t know if that would be worth the headache. At this point I’m just keeping my distance, hopefully I can leave and go back to my college campus early bc I there’s no way I can tolerate being around her till January

It’s literally like a Pavlovian Response. Eventually she just gave up cause she knew what was gonna happen. We don’t talk now but it sure was fun back in those days watching her get so angry

I get that. I’m a high strung person already so I knew she would push my buttons so she could play the “I’m the adult, you’re the child” game. And then one day I just figured out how to simmer on the inside while staring at her with fake confusion so SHE got mad that I wasn’t reacting. Then it made ME feel way better so I kept doing it
