[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 703776, member: 17635"] Is this not the way it goes? They can be desperate, feeling no hope, and maybe even a little nice -but if we respond with a no....well then....back to life as we knew it. A year ago or so, my Difficult Child called. husband and I were in the car and I answered my cell, not recognizing the #; i NEVER EVER do that now. Difficult Child (sobbing sounds): "(girlfriend's grandmother) wants to know how you can be so mean to me." ME: "Well, Difficult Child, perhaps you have not been honest with her." Difficult Child: "NO, you listen to me!" I quickly got off the phone. It went from crying to hatefulness in, what, 5 seconds? Hang in there, Pasajes. You (we) always have and will continue. My take on this is not to answer your phone for a month or so. [/QUOTE]
