[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 620574, member: 17635"] Thanks, folks. Have i told you today that I love you? husband and I made a vow at breakfast (stopped at a Cracker Barrel on the way home) to NOT read any more emails from gfg32, at least for a couple weeks. I have promised myself that before, but maybe now that we have a pact, I will just hit DELETE. They all say the same thing, basically demand money because this IS our fault....and we promised to put him up in a hotel here, so why not there? We OWE him. He never mentions that all help was contingent on him getting into therapy. It is nuts of me to expect he will say anything different for a very long time, if ever. husband and I have made the same comments--if he spent this much time looking for a job and social services, he would be in a better place by now! I am so tempted to email back a one-liner, such as "Google sociopath" or "We do not believe anything that comes out of your mouth", but I won't. Because, yes, he would re-double his efforts. girlfriend is moving back to her hometown this weekend, so the next week or two will probably be the worst as far as sheer/frantic desperation. We pray good comes out of this. The only "good" we see so far is my enabling mom is starting to see it is gfg32 and not his parents. He has been very, very mean to her via emails. She continues to email back--long lectures, including telling him that he is exactly where he is because of HIS choices--and I have asked her (again) to stop forwarding anything to me. I love it when you assure me it [B]will get better[/B], and deep down, I know it has to. He has to give up one day. Sure hope he stays 1500 miles away. [/QUOTE]
