A mother drowned her toddler twins in a "narcissistic rage" to punish estranged husband after marriage broke down

I have a step-daughter with my ex.. I love her VERY much. She has my values. She's very smart. She's incredibly kind.

My ex... she has positive characteristics but when something gets in her way she has an iron will to push it aside.

I didn't realize how bad this could be. I started calling it "Pulling a Tatiana" (not her real name).

Long story short. She didn't work, and didn't want to work. I just supported her. I wanted to end it because she was becoming abusive and I wasn't feeling the chemistry.

She wasn't having it... I was hers. She threatened to destroy my company,. Call my customers and tell them I raped her. Call everyone in my industry and tell then how horrible I was. Just a constant stream of anything horrible she could think of.

What's frightening is she did the same thing to her own daughter recently. She called me and was frightened and crying and I had to tell her a bit of what happened to me as I didn't want to tell her out of fear of ruining their relationship.

People can just do this... lose their fucking minds. Decide that you're their enemy and do whatever they can to destroy you.
