Russia is that uncle that used to be cool, started a cult, went kinda normal after his cult fell apart, but is now neck deep in a plot to destroy you and trying to get the cult going again.
IDK if you could call it dating. I moved out of the house, but she followed me so I had to get a restraining order. She didn't like that, and it came to blows. We finalized things with a formal separation, but she kept getting involved in my business so I had to sue her, and then she seems to have finally gotten the message.
We're on good terms now though, but it took some time for the wounds to heal.
