The blame never stops. My ex just loves portraying herself as the victim. I am sure her behaviour is calculated - she made being around her so unbearable that anyone would flee - then she would say - "See, he abandoned me." "He's not supportive." (This despite the fact that I shelled out thousands of dollars in stuff for our daughter). Then she would proceed with the emotional blackmail regarding. She even resisted setting up my child support payments so she could continue to play the victim and continue on the dole. She went so far as to not put my name on the birth certificate in order to make it harder on me.
