I have a question about this episode #284: Breaking Free from Toxic Friendships with Violet Benson and this clip Uncovering Childhood Patterns. I realized that my dad was just nice to me while trying to get something from me. But as soon as he noticed that I wasn't going to open the door or 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?
