Being British, and very ungodly, you would think I could not understand, how wrong. I've spent over 30 years under the spell of a sociopath, believing in the sanctity of my marriage vows. You know, for better for worse...! When he kept secret the death of my father from me because it interefered with work, I was convinced by him it was the right thing to do. When he put 27 stitches in my arm or broke my fingers, I believed I had provoked it. When he lost our home, when he stole money, when he criticised, provoked, abonded his children with no money or nowhere to live, I fell in to his trap. I was the one who was deranged. I was the one who had a break down. He was the rational one. I broke free recently. He is sick, I accept that but that does not mean I have to condone his behaviour. I am an intelligent woman, highly educated and could have been in a much better position had I not futilely sought his approval. Co-dependency, I needed to feel someone loved me and sociopaths pick up and feed on that need. My husband has now turned his manipultion on to my son and that has been the last straw. If there is a god who do you think he would ask you to pick your son or your husband? Remember it's not just you he will screw, it's your kids also.
