I'd investigate what it takes to place a restraining order and what it takes to enter a Witness Protection / Anonymity program, as you may need both to escape this woman.

She is toxic. It's well-known, well-documented and personally observed by yours truly that children of broken homes carry a great deal of their learned behaviors into adulthood. This means that should be acting just like her mother in 5-10 years. Do you really want to be with her mother?

The only cases in which I've witnessed a demonstrative change between the learned behavior of the parents and their children is when the adult child makes a determined decision to not only avoid acting as their parents did, but develop their OWN ways of dealing with situations.

She's trouble, and I can promise you that you'll only be ruining your own life by 'experiencing' anything with her.

I'd also throw in a healthy dose of counseling for you; particularly for what appears to be an unhealthy codependency. Attending a group like Alanon would likewise help - even though you didn't identify her as an alcoholic - the roles being played out here are much like those between an Alcoholic parent and their child, or an abusive spouse and the recipient.
