My h called me at work today. It was just last thursday that i set a boundary and made H promise to honor... NO R TALK on the phone while AT WORK. H called to ask what book to go get next. Exacerbation thick in his voice, sarcasm galore... defeat... I said "hey! it's okay... i'm not going anywhere, I just want to talk about these things and fix them. But it didn't fix anything. I saw the conversation getting "hairy" and knew I needed to stop it before my line got crossed. H started going on about how he has needs too... man, I kept asking over and over, can we talk later? can we not talk about this now, can we please stop???? I was really mad that he wouldn't respect my boundary and he told me that i'd just have to hang up on him if I didn't want to talk.
