Yes ECHOES. This is a very common cycle in a relationship with a person who is a borderline or a borderline "light". Basically setting the stage to experience what is familiar..

From a HIGH when the rules were changed/broken to a LOW when they are put into effect again when the T tries to protect herself from the demands of the relationship.

Now, when Rainbow's T sets the boundary again or another boundary around the email, Rainbow will experience what she is expecting -- feelings of rejection, abandonment, etc.... thus causing upsetment, anger, feelings of self-loathing.

It's like a game basically.
Thanks for this!
