[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 756125, member: 18958"] Seeking Strength, I'm sorry. He is feeling sorry for himself that his life is oh so hard, and wants to put it on you, into your psyche. This was a cruel and abusive way to hurt you, because he's mad about his own failed life. He would text, "purple people eater" (an old, old song) if he thought it would inflict damage, so that he could imagine getting a rise out of you. I would never, ever respond to him. It would only feed his negativity. I think each time this happens you are called upon to recognize how much better off you are, than years past. You have detached. Over the years I have been here I can see with my own eyes, how you've gotten your power back. Of course it smarts, but the person in pain now, is your son. He is flailing about now because he, not you, or his grandparents have to experience the effects of living badly. Your boundaries are so healthy and strong and appropriate he has to sneak around on the internet to get to you. He didn't really. You are fine. He is not. But he's got to feel this if there is any chance of his healing. I am so very sorry this happened. I feel sad for him too, actually. But you are fine. [/QUOTE]
