That is a very painful experience, and also very frustrating for you, especially when they limited your contact with her and as you believe, sought her inheritance as well. How can someone be so opportunistic this way? When things like this happen, we are often left with many unanswered questions. I am so sorry to hear that.
I also agree that this kind of gaslighting happens to men too. With testosterone, there is evidence that levels have declined over time and they are still debating the causes. Thank you.
