We have a new word in our lives thanks to a cable television show. The word for the day was "conflama" which is a contraction or the words conflict and drama. I think you get the meaning... So I get home last evening and get hit with the conflama for the day (at home anyway). It seems that the little ticks other parent used a computer here and left themselves logged on to their email. The tick used the same computer, found the email still logged in and proceeded to go through the emails. Then sent threatening emails to the parent of the first part. Conflict.101 right? When the tick gets home and is asked about this they immediately get defensive and attempt to steer the conversation away from the original topic and towards how they are the victim in all of this. The short version of this is that in all that was said last evening by the tick, I heard one and only one piece of truth from them. That is that they were selfish.
I have reflected back on this and have come to the conclusion that the tick is truly a sociopath. Having done my due diligence, doing the research and the end game from most of those I read say that you simply have to divorce yourself from them completely. A sociopath will never admit they have a problem, seek help or effect permanent positive change in their life. They will only continue to use, connive, steal, lie, disrupt and in general cause emotional havoc in those lives around them.
My goal is to come up with a plan to force the tick to move out for good. I think that using communication and transportation as my leverage will work but I will need to get everyone on board. I have even thought about speaking to the significant other about the tick. It is not right for someone to be used like this and have no idea as to what is going on. My problem is how to approach them without opening the door to reprisal. You never know when or if someone will say too much and thus basically throw you under the proverbial bus. Maybe if I approach another person to act as a go- between? Not sure about this, I will have to give it more thought before action is taken.
