I think that's a symtom of abuse, or indicator. Don't quote me on this

Yup. That describes my ex for sure.

Abuse also creates people who at the core lack a sense of self, so trying to fit into groups can be difficult and makes them prone to do things wrong. (my head just went into a translation error dead zone)

It's crazy how big of an impact a non-abusive upbringing can have. I've personally struggled with cognitive dissonance from my own, took me a low 15 years to accept it

Yeah. I had a physically and mentally abusive father as well, but he wasn't much of a liar in this case. I'm 40, been on my own since 17, and still need regular therapy for all of it. So I empathize.
