Guest guest Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 well said, why I chose to walk away and try to avoid dealing with her crazy friends as much as possible, they all hear her side and never ask mine or what I have going on in my life. More later. proflaf Subject: Arguing with nada To: WTOAdultChildren1 Date: Friday, August 13, 2010, 1:39 PM Â I wanted to add that its very frustrating if not impossible to have a rational, productive, adult-to-adult conversation with one's bpd/npd mother. Its like trying to interview a slick politician, or a criminal law attorney. (I think most politicians start out as lawyers, actually.) Politicians, if you've noticed, almost never answer a question with a direct " yes " or " no. " Sometimes, they won't even answer the question asked at all, but will start talking about something else entirely. They're slippery, they refuse to be pinned down. They actually take courses and training in how to be manipulative, how to put a " spin " on an answer to make themselves look good, and how to talk around a question without actually answering it clearly. Our country is run by nadas and fadas! -Annie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
