I believe you! D: <3 And god, I know how that is, when someone is so good at playing emotional games that no one believes you when you've figured them out. Not just in regards to her, either.

Ugh, although I definitely didn't get the worst of what she did, I still can't believe I fell for what I did get for so long. I just sort of started to notice more and more things about her, you know? Inconsistencies, jabs of cruelty in IM conversations, and how bad things always seemed to happen to her. Finally, I found myself instinctively avoiding her and wondering why.

Then I thought back and kinda figured it out.
