[QUOTE="kennedyland, post: 592885, member: 16133"] Excellent points of view. I have yet to contact him. I didn't do the knee-jerk reaction of calling him up last night after I talked to his sister. I wanted to give myself time to think about it. Now that I've slept in it and given myself some distance I've decided what I want to do. First of all, I'll open the door, but I'm not going to hold his hand and let things slide. He owes me and my wife a few apologies for his hateful text messages. Also, I'm not going over to his apartment and giving him rides if we get together. He can take the bus. He can also pay for his own meals. If he comes over to my house he has to wear clean clothing, be showered, and not stoned. There is a wedding this summer in Michigan and he'll have to find a way to get there and pay for his own ticket and hotel. No free ride. His birthday is on Saturday (he'll be 29). I sent him a card with a note saying his choices are up to him and my choices are up to me. Frankly, I don't think this will go well, but I don't really care. My life, my rules. [/QUOTE]
