I have a question about episode \[#807 After Dark: One Thing After Another and this Breaking the Cycle. It's so hard. I realized that my dad was just nice to me while knocking on the door to get something from me. But as soon as he noticed that I wasn't going to open and that his emotional manipulation didn't work, he started calling me the worst things he could think of and became extremely aggressive. I think this was his true face. Was it just him being hurt, or was it something else? I don't think so.
