Very true, Auntie. I did a lot of marriage counseling over my 40 year career in mental health, and I can vouch for the fact that though they live through the same events and know the same facts, two people can have very different interpretations of those facts and their respective motivations and actions.
I was so “evil” to someone, that they complained to the rec center and got me dismissed from my volunteer position. Then the same person complained because they cancelled the program I led, due to not being able to find someone else to do the program. I won’t have anything to do with that person or the rec center anymore. Does that make me evil still?
For some people, making you/me the villain helps to justify what they are doing. They don’t have to admit they are wrong if they can blame someone else.

I’m evil in “somesone’s” story? I can live with that as long as “somesone” doesn’t have me arrested.
