There are times when a person can SEEM like someone they are not.

I could write a book (but do not wish to) regarding abusive individuals in the ''family'' of origin who EXACTLY fit that description.

I was designated as the ''outcast'' as I was not a Malignant or Covert Narcissist as all of the rest of the ''family'' are.

I was also something of a whistleblower. I noticed the abuse. I dared to speak. And it was all tossed back at me by the whole ''family'' (rather like some sick ''old boys network'' with lies, abuse and cover ups)
