By the end of it I realized we didn't click on a personality level, we didn't really have anything in common, and so we just kinda ended up hating each other. It took us forever to realize we weren't friends anymore too, cause I guess we felt like we'd found someone who understood us and we didn't have too many other friends. Just clung to getting drunk and slowly becoming more and more passive aggressive.
I didn't say you were making it up... Just that I didn't think it described my limited interaction with the group therapy shrink I was forced to see while at the shelter

But your description of trauma bonding sounds a lot like most of the posts in this thread tbh
