Any person who has ever dealt with a person with a severe personality disorder would tell you: this is all pretty bad advice.

This kind of advice only makes sense when all parties involved are acting in good faith, and we are in the realm of “people just make mistakes”

But when dealing with fundamentally broken people, taking this attitude is just gaslighting yourself. It’s how people justify being in abusing relationships for years.

I’m dealing with this problem. Just recently got her to agree to appointing a decision maker to resolve those issues.

I think part of my issue is her new husband makes solid money, And her lawyer saw her as a cash cow, so the latter kept validating her crazy ideas.

Decision makers are required to be neutral, so hopefully that helps going forward.
