[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 657759, member: 17269"] Good for you, Lil. Its great that you were able to be so clear, and great that he confirmed that he got it. Keep that text so that later, when he starts with the excuses/questions/obfuscations, you can KNOW that you were clear. COM says often that it is enough to say things once (oh wait, was that just an oxymoron???)...and it is so. I used to joke that I was going to get a tattoo on my thumb to remind me...HE IS NOT DEAF. If I said it and he isn't taking my advice/following through/doing what I suggest it isn't because he didn't hear it...it is because he is choosing not to. If Difficult Child doesn't do as you suggest, doesn't do service, doesn't go to court, doesn't take what he wants from apartment...it isn't because he didn't hear what you said. Good luck to you in these hard days, Lil and Jabber. Letting go of the fight we have been fighting with ourselves is hard. Echo [/QUOTE]
