he built a private timeline of our relationship using old messages, photos, and journal entries. at first it looked sweet. then he showed me a generated summary of our worst arguments
the story portrayed him as calm and patient in every scene. my words were paraphrased into increasingly unreasonable demands. i asked where the original messages had gone, and he admitted he'd provided summaries rather than transcripts
i showed him one exchange he'd described as 'unprovoked anger.' the actual message began with me asking him to pick me up after surgery and him saying he'd forgotten
he stopped treating generated summaries as evidence. i told him memory tools can organize the past, but they don't get to edit me into the villain
