[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 664430, member: 17635"] And, Genie, that is a very good reason not to contact him in the near future. You need more time to heal. I have been reading the advice to you and think there was nothing wrong with telling your son that you love him. Right now, where it stands with my 34yo Difficult Child, i will not reach out to him because #1. He would most likely come back with all sorts of demands and mean accusations. #2. He might ignore me. That does not bother me as much because he knows I currently have his phone # blocked. :cautious: I am not proud of that, but this is the second time in two years I have blocked him. Self-preservation of my peace was the reason both times. husband does not have him blocked and there is always email, so if he needed to get hold of us, he could. My guess is, 30 days or so down the road, you will be in a [B][COLOR=#b300b3]much better[/COLOR][/B] place. I used to feel just like you are feeling tonight - the disgust, the embarrassment, etc. Those feelings are 99% gone. I pray he will make better choices, but have released the angst. Disclaimer: You may see me on this board angsting on any given day - but much more seldom than a year ago! Hang in there. Take care of you. SS [/QUOTE]
