Hi,I am sorry to all the woman above for what you are dealing with,I to was in a similar position,my partners mother was the child and my partner the parent,he has always cleaned her mess up for her,she lies,manipulates then threatens to harm herself if she doesn't get her own way,she has had 4 partners(2 of which were husbands)walk out on her because of her behaviour,she never takes the blame for anything,foreva claiming she has bipolar(which i might add has never been dignoised by a doctor to her)when ever she mucked up she would immediantly blame bipolar.Her last antic involved was when she told my partner 1 thing and his brother another thing,she sat and watched while the brother had a verbal go at me for something I had no idea about,and then my partner and his brother starting fighting as well,once it was finished and they had calmed down abit they confronted her,she still tried to deny she lied to each of them then admitted it then took it back once again blaming bipolar,the brother and I stopped talking he started claiming I was the 1 at fault,my partner no longer speaks to either of them and I have been blamed for coming between them all,I could no longer handle the situation and have since left my partner.
