Bad behavior = narcissism? Holding people accountable and promoting fear and hatred have similarities. When someone calls you a narcissist for that, your loved ones would ironically disagree with them, but agree later, but still love you unconditionally calling you a "good person".

It's widely believed Anastasia, the first wife of Ivan the Terrible, had a soothing effect on his volatile personality. She was selected from 500-1500 eligible suitresses. She wasn't considered very pretty but had a calming aura. After she died(allegedly from poisoning) Ivan had an emotional collapse and his personality changed. He supposedly mentioned years later after many marriages if Anastasia had been alive he would not have been so gruesome. Cutest thing I have read recently. https://www.theromanovfamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/anastasia-1.jpg

@joemama711 I'm not even being biased towards myself, but when they use the term 'standard American' accent. Mine is as standard as it can get XD, no uniqueness or accent/lilt to it, which is fine, I just don't hear any accent from myself.

(6:45 PM Thu.) I am overwhelmed with a feeling of rage and I want to throttle something to the point of near death. To explain (so I don't just sound like a psychopath): I had a very beloved (on all levels except physical) child of mine reveal to me that they are in a bad place right now. The issue isn't necessarily that they are in a bad place, everybody has those days/weeks/months/years, but my anger is the reason of their bad place. They are being mistreated by someone that should be taking good care of them...and to be honest, I never liked their partner in the first place, I just never said anything because 1: I didn't want to cause tension in their relationship due to baseless opinions, 2: they never asked what I thought about said partner, 3: I'm not their actual mother (even if they feel like I am) so I felt making any comments about their relationship would be unneeded and inappropriate of me to make/comment on and 4: I didn't have proof or an exact reason why I didn't like their partner (which leads back to me not wanting to dish out baseless opinions/thoughts/feelings of mine). Oh no. But now I find out the relationship is so rocky to the point of my child's life possibly being on the line and I am mad. I cannot even find the concern in myself (well I can, it's just mostly anger rn towards their partner) as I want to drive—heck, I'd walk to them if needed—down to where they live and beat the ever loving crap out of their partner. It also hurts my heart, because my kid deserves the best out of life, especially at having been hurt time, and time, and time again by people they thought loved them. I'm. So. Over. Their. Mistreatment! If I had the finances, I'd make my way over there with my overnight bag, the wrath of an infinite amount of burning suns resting within my chest and my fists, ready to pummel someone's face into dust. You don't get to use fear as a chain in someone's life just to keep them tied down to you, ESPECIALLY not anyone I know. I wouldn't let them escape from me until they know what fear actually looks like, then we'll see how they like the thought of it.
