Often, the best response to this form of abuser is none.
Yes, they will gaslight.
Yes, they will lie to friends.
Yes, they will lie to your colleagues.
Yes, they will use new social media.
Yes, they will send monkeys by flight.
Yes, they will rewrite history to avoid their shame and guilt.
Yes, the worst amongst them will continue for months and years, never relenting — be realistic.
Have they not shown themselves in their actions, sufficiently?
No response, still, is the best response.
Good luck in your thriving.
