All Hope is lost/Help - Part 2

[Evie]

I've had a further text from H which says:

'U have said some really shitty things to me - 2do with the boys, girls, my job etc etc.
I left b/c it wasn't right between us - which u agreed to. I MOVED OUT not you, its me who lives in a shoe box & me who has to listen to our answer machine b/c u don't pick up yr phone when i want to speak to the boys. It was me who told the boys and you just sat there crirising me in front of them.
ALL of this b/c we dont get on - remember it takes two. Think of the very very hurtful things you've said to me & think how you've missed the boys this week - as every week for me is like this one when im not on holiday. You haven't got a bloody clue'

In my defence, i didn't criticise him in front of the boys, I sat there and didn't say anything, except to say to the boys that this wasn't what mummy wanted.

The answer machine is for the business mainly, so I keep the door to the office shut so I can't here the phone and I can't always pick up my mobile b/c i'm always really busy. All the more reason then to make arrangements to phone at certain times.

I did say some horrible things to him to goad him to try and talk to me, to try and put right what i could see was going wrong, but he would never open up and communicate. I'm afraid i was very sarcastic and belittling to him. He hates confrontation and would run away rather than face what was wrong.

I want to reply to this text and would appreciate any advice on how to handle it correctly.

Thanks for reading
