(12,463 posts)Lesson 1 do not tolerate bullying shit. Ignore his jarring angry drama and do not put up with it.
The people in the whitehouse that freaked out when tfg got mad and dramatic now know what battered women and abused children deal with.
My father was an abuser.. I lived under his threats and degrading and hitting for years.
My sisters and my mom always tried to ignore or placate him and sometimes they
or I got hurt.
One day when I was a teenager I decided to stop being scared of him.
He was cutting a roast
to make a sandwich and began to start in on me.
He put down the butcher knife.
I picked it up
He started to berate and threaten me.
I stepped up fast.
Yelled with the angriest voice I could do, with the knife near his face, if you try to tear me down again or hit me,
I will poke your eyes out with this knife. Dont think I wouldn't do it you got to sleep sometime you bastard.
He started to run out the kitchen door. While he was opening it and standing still I threw the knife it stuck in the door inches away from him. He ran out,got into his car and zoomed out the driveway.
Later he whined to mom pathetically that I tried to kill him. I overheard and laughed.
Mom told him quit making shit up.
He never hit me again.
And watched his mouth too.
I learned to out bully a bully to the point I made it crystal clear
that I was willing to outdo his drama with
a bigger scarier drama and bigger threat then he expected.
Bully psychopaths like my father pay attention to your boundaries when you let them have thier own medicine back times 1,000 they know when to cut the shit when they would be the one hurt this time.
Dont worry he was not hurt, or in real danger. I know how to throw knives,and I had no intention to hurt or kill him,I just made it look to him like I would.
