She used to tell me how awful he was, totally triangulated me. It was horrid.
My former t told me how I could have a relationship with my father without injuring him, and I'm working my program so to speak around him so I can have a relationship with him. |
Your mother reminds me of an ex friend of mine. She had a lot of children and treated them much like you describe.
It's got to be tough for men targeted by female psychopaths and narcissists. They're more likely to be seen as the perpetrator just because of their gender. And even if not people would be like, "well just leave you can physically overpower her!"
Psychopaths are very good at exploiting people that have NPD. A psychopath will have a narcissist wrapped around his or her finger in no time and they'll utterly decimate the narcissist.
It sounds like she was using your father to keep the blame off of her. Pretty typical.
It sounds like you care about your father. How do you feel about your mother?
