My thead locked in record time and shortness!! Update on MLC
Very old friends arrived Saturday evening, and we had a great day on SUnday - went out to Richmond on the Thames, had lunch and walked up to Marble Hill House, and back to Kew, along the river. Very pretty day.
H continued to try and phone on Saturday, and THEN I learned Sunday evening when youngest son arrived for dinner with us, his father had DRIVEN from where he lives to Central London to see him, as son wasn't answering his phone. [It is not an easy or short drive!]
Son wasn't at his home [he is at university, and lives in a shared house], so h spent time driving around London to track him down. They did eventually meet, and apparently he 'sort of' apologised a bit, bt really it was all about self justification. Son says he cannot cut him totally out of his life, but I fear that h is suckering him in to kick him again [as he has done so many times - it reminds me of Charlie Brown and Lucy, in a sad way].
I had another nasty postcard today, but fortunately my friends were staying, and they advised me to shred it. H also called this am, and my friend [male] answered the phone. He hung up without speaking!!
But he must now know that these friends know about his antics, and have seen his spewing postcard. He knows them well [they are/were our oldest friends] and it speaks volumes to me that he couldn't even say hello to Tom.
I find it so weird that he simply cannot leave me alone at present. He was the poster child for the drop out MLCer, and I would go for weeks and weeks without any contact. He is so crazy it is starting to frighten me a little. . . . . I mean after two years of this he is suddenly back in contact telling me how horrible I am. I thought he had got it all out of his system. I think he resents my happiness . . .
But it feels good to have made the decision on no more contact. I refuse to be abused any further, and I wish my son would make the same decision, I admire his courage in continuing the r, but fear that it can only lead to more pain for him.
