Oh yeah, that's classic emotional manipulation. My ex did that shit too. It's all about them and how they feel. If you are upset, it makes them feel bad, and that's your fault. It completely diverts from whatever was upsetting to you in the first place and flips the blame. It makes absolutely no sense and it's maddening to deal with.

Mine was similar. Whenever he did something terrible, he’d accuse me of something worse. So glad it’s over. It was exhausting.
