Yes, the phrase "no good deed goes unpunished" has NEVER rung more true than with my xNPD/AH...
He actually screamed at me at one point this weekend that I need to "detach" (his belief is that I am "jealous" he was with his girlfriend and that the kids weren't at all upset by his blowing them off) and then demanded that I remind him of his parenting time.
I just laughed at the absurdity of those statements.
