So maybe, your mom has lied about having cancer, blood clots, and other serious illness to get out of
something or to evoke sympathy. And, maybe, she told her one boyfriend she needed to get
special surgery in a city that was a plane ride away when in
reality she was hosting another man at her place all weekend and didn’
t want her first boyfriend showing up unexpectedly. And then when her boyfriend showed up to leave her flowers, gifts, and a speedy recovery and her
lie was uncovered, she told the new boyfriend the old one was a crazy stalker who'
s been attacking her for ages. Because she always has to be the victim. It’
s the only way she can justify their actions. And maybe, in order to make it seem real, she actually took the old boyfriend to court. And you don’t know if she did it so she can live with herself just to keep up the show for the rest of the world.
