Don't be sorry, Elisa, for calling a spade a spade, after all Malone set up Blair as “bad” one in original T&B relationship to "victimize" Todd as means to further redeem him. Malone wrote Blair repeatedly taking advantage of a VERY vulnerable Todd, who “sucked” up HER abuse until he snapped & retaliated.ITA, it’s a vicious cycle but it goes from Max to Blair to Todd. Max emotionally abuses Blair, leaves her self-esteem in tatters but Max refuses in turn to be Blair’s victim, no matter how hard she tries to HURT him back, including attempted murder, she can’t seem to DAMAGE Max so she seeks out someone she CAN hurt, Todd.

In EACH BnT story, Todd’s self-esteem takes a major beating, damaging him further but why is that? Because a person typically becomes an abuser out of a desperate NEED to boost their own poor self-esteem by tearing down another’s! Blair derides Todd, places ALL blame for their failed relationships on him/his problems b/c she can’t look in the mirror & admit her own litany of faults… that would be admitting her image of herself is probably as bad as Todd’s of himself.
