[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 664883, member: 17461"] As my mother and my sister joined to do, to ridicule and humiliate in private and then, to celebrate what they'd done to the point that both described the eye rolling viciousness the entire family engaged in as the poor woman left to spend the night in a motel because, after having driven the entire way, she was too tired to drive further. Enough to tell, and retell it, to me. Enough for my mother to describe the behind the scenes actions she'd taken to disparage and destroy this woman to their mutual friends. And that, of course, is what they do to me, and to everyone in their circles. And to my D H. D H says I should have protected him, as he protects me. He is correct. This is accurate. For both my mother and my sister. Excellent post, Copa. Right down to "low rent". This is what my sister was doing throughout the entire Padre Island experience. Huh. Isn't that something and when am I ever finally going to see it. Serenity is right. A clean break is best; they do what they do with malice aforethought. Malice. And you are right, Copa. These are not the finely executed actions of someone plotting revenge. These are the actions of a clumsy fisherman, throwing chum into the waters. And then, dynamite. And then, they laugh, at the stunned and blasted creatures that float to the surface, gasping for breath. Idiot savants, in a way. And that includes my sister. Praying her Ring of Thorns around me [I]and my children.[/I] And all those things I used to believe, about my sister needing to do these things to establish some core of authenticity for herself after the way we were all brought up. I was wrong. Now, what to do, about that. Yes. This is true too, Copa. Abusive people abuse because that is who the twisted little freaks are. And if we do something as simple as speaking the truth, they explode into tears, playing the victim. Claiming they don't understand. Roaring about how we've hurt them; about how good and innocent they are...and about how they are done trying to "help" us. About how they have done all they can "for us". When what they mean is "to" us. For now. Twisted, evil little freak persons. Cedar [/QUOTE]
