Pay back can be a bitch. Too bad when it gets deflected to innocent bystanders. Matricide is the obviously healthy resolution.
Payback? My ex was from a family who hard fights because of alcohol in front of complete strangers and family or friends and they cared not one jot. He would be drinking ricard, she would be drinking 6 bottles of fizzy wine at lunch, same for the evening too. So, basically all the family have grown up seeing two people fight and think it is the correct thing to do. I had stitches in my arm when I wanted to leave for England because I had had enough. She drove 100+ miles to take me back and I agreed. She slapped me, punched me, broke a broom over my back, spat in my face, and not once did I lift a finger, and I am very proud of that.
