I should take a stance with my family.
I would only do it if they keep 'bugging' you about it. I dug a big line in the sand because of other issues involved. Haven't talked to them since. Talk about detaching. And I've felt more detached from sitch---nice unexpected side-bonus.

that is really aggravating...it's like earlier in my sitch. I was trying to leave W alone, but had to see her like every other day. On a positive for you, he is contacting you first.

You know what you want to do when you are able to implement. Meanwhile, keep positive, friendly, and I still think you are being consistent...I just think you are frustrated by the mini-baby steps.
