I think it's time that the constant theatrics be put to rest so we can actually have decent discussions.

And, I'm not being snarky here, I'm quite serious.

These are not "theatrics"- I am just choosing to not engage in the conversation right now. The only one calling someone a victim is you- I have never claimed it- you keep trying to give it to me.

I am being quite serious as well.

Someone tell me why my decision to back out of that conversation is such a problem for you. I have made a choice to not engage in it at this time- that does not make me a victim. It is not theatrics- it's just a choice to not continue with that vein of the discussion at the moment.

Instead of respecting that you keep at me- as if I need to respond in a certain way at a certain time. I needed to step back and wait to discuss it- and you won't let it go.
