well, I think we're using a different sense of the word "victim". I simply meant that there are people who are on the receiving end of crap that was not in any way as a result of their own doing. This probably doesn't exist often in "relationships", though. I understand that. I also understand that sometimes, some people have a propensity to create their own drama, and wallow in it. But thats also not what I'm talking about.
Sometimes, bad sh!t happens to people, and no amount of "thinking happy thoughts" is going to change it.

now...that stuff about "being busy being NOT a victim"...ya got me there. no idea what you're talking about...at least, how it applies to me.
