Welcome to my world sweety, Im so good at blaming myself but its not you nor is it me it is the perpertrator of the crime, they get into your mind making you feel that something you said or done made them do this. It's not it is totally and completely them and them only. I'm 56 and only learning now that I am not to blame.
