Is anyone else like this?
I have given up on trying to get a few people to see that I even have a valid point of view

And this includes my parents

To see that I have valid reasons to feel hurt and abused.

To see that I HAVE been ABUSED.
So maybe that is partly why I am feeling a need to spare others all the pain and nastyness I have been through. Not every misunderstanding has to end in a life long feud or ignoring games

... or with one party leaving a situation/place that might otherwise be "healthy" or at least positive in some aspects for them
