Is this funny or am I as twisted as kn*b face xp?

[pinemartina]

I am working on cheering myself up and having positive and empowering thoughts on my birthday....

The last time I saw xp was when he turned up uninvited, and raged, in a loud ,psycho style in my face, as I fed our newborn dd.

I did my best not to engage.I showed no emotion.I said "whatever" and held up my hand saying "the ears aint listening"

He spewed vile words at me for an hour.

Do you remember the film of "The Colour Purple"?
The part where Celie tells Mr she is leaving with Sug...They are at the table ,eating with the family.He lays into her with his usual abuse and she finally stands up and "curses" him,holds out her arm ,points her fingers at him and says "everything you done to me will come back on you..." as Sug leads her away and Mr looks shaken up....

I stood up and held out my arm,pointing my fingers in a spreadout "v" and said the same words to him over and over,very calmly.
He took a while to listen,then he started on at me "you are mad - you are the same as me only worse..."
I carried on repeating that,then started hissing through my teeth like a snake,long continuous sound ,while holding my arm out and staring right into his eyes.
That was when he left.
As he shouted how mad I was and how he would have dd taken away,I carried on hissing and didn't stop til he had shut the door.

(yes,my parents were there,no,they never commented)

That memory makes me laugh.
Does anyone else find it funny or
Am I bonkers

No it is quite funny.

People like your xp are crazy-making, so it's pretty normal to wonder if you are as bad as them I think.

Time without his influence should serve to show you that you're ok. You probably won't start going around hissing at people and trying to hex them. Probably .

Totally agree.

I think it's funny that he keeps calling you mad so you actually did a mad thing, took the wind totally out of his sails. He could do nothing but keep repeating that you are mad. Where did it get him? Nowhere at all. You were meant to change your behaviour in response to what he said, especially the ultimate threat of having DD taken away. But you didn't. And nobody is going to believe him if he tries to tell them how mad you are, because they know both of you, and they know who's mad and who can be trusted with a baby. That's pretty funny, to see big scary ranty bloke reduced to helplessness. Couldn't happen to a nicer fellow.

Now do something like that to your unspeakable parents - they so have it coming.

Thats funny, well done you. I think you've probably put a bug in his head now. Maybe you should make a little doll and put some pins in it, get it out if he ever dares to give you BS again. LOL!

You could....if you wanted to...mess with their heads quite a lot. Given how delusional they all are...I'll bet your lovely kids would play along too!

But probably not a good idea as they are close to the edge already.

;0)

That's empowering.
How fantastic that you could take the piss like that and not worry about his reaction
Yey
