To vent Is To Release

I am pretty pissed and cheesed-off at her, but I will not let it affect me. Sometimes, the fault lies with the other person, and I should stop letting her mood take over my sense of guilt - ie that I was responsible for behavior.

I don't exactly know how to handle it though. The traditional roles of nurturer and support have been reversed, and I find myself having to be HER support instead. Much as I want to ignore the implications, I find myself diagnosing her character. Hypochondriac personality coupled with extremely stong tendencies to wallow in self-pity, instinctive reaction to deny knowledge of any and everything and play dumb. And I am exploding.

Am I supposed to let her bang and slam, throw tantrums as and when she wants, sprout self-pitying remarks and worse of all, cry and blow her nose whenever a 'crisis' arises? Fuck no.

I admit that I may sprout certain vulgarities when angry, but it is always under my breath, or I just think it silently. Rarely will I put it down on paper, and thus for that previous F-word to emerge, is an indication of how bothered I am. The F-word summarizes succintly the feeling of anger, frustration and impatience I have about her.

"Stab her in the back"?

I may have eluded to mention that over-dramatization is one of her traits as well.
