My mother and I had an argument and she threatened to tell my father about the chats she found with my boyfriend. She said it out of nowhere and I lost my cool. She promised she would never talk about this ever again but did it anyways. This caused me to lose trust in her and perceive her as a mean and vindictive woman. We ended up engaging in a physical altercation and I held her face with force, after which she got emotional and started crying. She then justified herself by saying I pushed her to the brink and she said it out of rage. I know what I did was wrong, but are her actions justified? Should she have broken my trust like that?
Sounds like something my mother would do. And yeah I hate her but of course getting violent ain't the right answer there which you know. So to real question no she shouldn't have, if you've both agreed upon something it should stay that way.
What she did was wrong and even if how you reacted was bad you are still justified to feel she is in the wrong.

emotional blackmail? aggression? violence? I was told that only men were capable of this. what the hell is going on in your family?
Parents SHOULD be telling eachother about that is going on with their kids. Keeping secrets is stupid and leads to having shitty kids like you. Sounds like are failure parents that are raising a second generation of failure.
Promises should never be broken, we shouldn't do hurtful things out of anger, we shouldn't hit family members. None of what I read feels justified, I just se these flaws that need being worked on.

You are a child in her house. She and your dad feed you, provide shelter for you, and give you everything you have. It sounds like you're engaging in bad behavior.
