I think that is the only way you could possibly view them and retain your sanity. You know that they can't be believed and can't constantly try to parse what is or isn't true in what they say.

I worked with a narcissist borderline sociopath last summer and thought I was losing my mind half the time. Had to quit since she was my boss and there really wasn't much alternative. So did everyone else. This woman starts a new crew about every three months.

Am loving this series. I wanted to know how it all ended at first, now I'm dreading the end. Thanks!

No way. As I said, I can only judge actions.

My head was spinning when I was in the prison. Truth, lies, fantasy… I usually split the difference. Thanks so much for the kind words. Let me know how you react to the film now that you've read this series. Glad you're no longer in the abusive relationship.

Rich:

I get some of my best dialog from, well, real life. I had it in my first draft and then, somehow, it got lost in subsequent drafts.

Sigh.

I'll use it in another film.

“Sorry.”

“This place is filled with sorry.”

Now that's a great movie line…

But you have to understand something. What we view as truth, and they observe as truth, are two different things. In her mind, this is her truth. I don't think she was being disingenuous, she most likely believed this to be obtainable. It is a dream. Her dream. I cannot fathom what I would do living there, but I can imagine a reality for myself with a totally different makeup. I was married to an abusive man for 14 yrs. I learned to dream of a life where I would have a much better life, no chaos, and nothing happening day to day. I was lucky enough to obtain this. I feel pretty confident that most inmates play people to be sympathetic to their cause, but something about this rings very true for me. Great writing once more, Robert. I am going to watch the movie again, as I said before, I only remember seeing pieces of it, at the time. Honestly though, I can't imagine the movie could live up to the richness of the picture you paint with your words. Powerful.

Wow. These ladies sure spin tales. There's no way you can judge the truth.

Lurowan:

Actually, it has become an overwhelmingly leftist/liberal trick.
