When he got out, he joined a church, whose members welcomed him.

#2 Amy’s mother was extremely dramatic about her father’s death. She sobbed, and said, What am I going to do now. You’re going to take care of me, aren’t you. Or are you going to abandon me like you did your father.

#3 There are five types of people who can ruin your life. They are the Narcissistic High-Conflict Personality, the histrionic HCP, the antisocial HCP, the schizoid HCP, and the paranoid HCP. They are difficult to deal with, and can often be avoided if you know what you’re looking for.
