      I have a ton of empathy for abuse victims.
      Having something shitty done to you, doesn’t mean it’s okay for you to be shitty.
      Cheating is not okay, even if your spouse is abusive. Leaving an abusive spouse is a valid reaction. Cheating is not.

      And from a legal perspective, the second we open up the can of worms of ‘This person is shitty there for it’s okay to be shitty to them’ you create a slippery slope that could easily be used by shitty people against good people.

        It’s pretty obvious that you don’t.

        Having something shitty done to you, doesn’t mean it’s okay for you to be shitty.

        I did not say that.

        This person is shitty there for it’s okay to be shitty to them’

        I did not say that.

        So, according to you malignant narcissists are good people? Okay
