[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 744326, member: 22877"] I composed a text telling him that his latest stunt is probably the most hurtful thing he has ever done and that I am more angry than hurt. And that he doesn't get to cut someone from his life and then turn around and ask them for help with something. It's just sitting there on my phone's screen waiting for me to send it or delete. I'm not sure which is the best option. Either way I would still be the "bad guy" for ignoring him, or the "bad guy" for not agreeing to call him an Uber. And part of me says that if I respond, even in the negative, it will open a pandora's box of him arguing, trying to negotiate or persuade, or giving him a platform for further hurtful and abusive words. It's telling that his text was all business, not one word of remorse or apology. Did anybody really think an apology would be forthcoming? I think it's the nature of the beast that this is a new day and therefore yesterday never happened, so no apology or acknowledgement on their part is required. [/QUOTE]
