I have a mean one too in MLC... The only thing that has worked for me in keeping my sanity is going dark with H. It really bothers him that I don't have any contact with him and act as if.....
I spent months validating his feelings, listening until I puked, reinforcing the positive, etc...
I now have some peace and sanity. I like you, am not sure I could take h back - too much damage.
I have three kids and he only takes them when his lawyer gets on his case to lessen his child support once the divorce goes through.
I am praying for you. He is treating you horribly, do not take it. Set clear boundaries and be strong as hell.
