Sorry to hear about your evening G8r. Sounds like she is just looking to start a fight with you. Keep validating and keep your boundaries. If your boundaries are not well defined, trying writing them out here and asking for feedback. Decide what the consequences are if the boundaries are crossed. Then stick to them. This is a very hard thing to do. I keep trying and as she evolves I can feel myself get sucked in. Some times I do ok recognizing it and getting out, sometimes I get sucked in despite saying to myself, stop you are engaging.

Good luck to you G8r, I am sending you wishes of strength!
