I'm out. Situations like this made it very cut and dry for me. I never had any doubts about what my mother was. Sometimes it made me feel like I was just as bad to have to deserve it, but it made it easier for me to leave. Even though everyone in my family will and has told me I'm wrong and she's nothing like that. Strangers that have never met me but know her have told me how wrong I am. But I know. She may not have shown anyone else, but I saw her. I know, and that's enough. I think the thing to pull away from these stories we post on here is just because everyone else is fooled doesn't mean you are wrong or crazy. You know, and sometimes that just has to be enough.
