This list describes my mother v well. When I started loosing weight she sabotaged, but also told me she would give me money for every stone I lost. It killed her that I wouldn't take her money, but she had no real generosity, just wanted credit for anything I achieved.

It sucks that I figured her out, but it took another eight years and a marriage to figure out that I was in a relationship with a narcissistic abuser. It's really insidious. Thanks for this thread @SomeoneToUnderstand
