#4 Two-faced moms
My mother was a completely different person to many other people. She’s a strong and self sufficient woman who just didn’t get much luck in life. She has a good relationship with her children and is a great parent. In reality, she’s ridiculously lazy, clingy, draining, and manipulative, needs constant attention, and someone to always take care of her and listen to her problems and do absolutely everything for her.
However, as soon as she was no longer able to get her way with me she started to show her true colors to the world. I also had the same thing happen with an ex-friend who also has narcissistic tendencies. To quote one of our other friends: “she’s like a completely different person now”. —ruduo
