You're hanging in there like a trooper, Alicia --> that took a lot of solid nerve to NOT rise to his bait and let him drag you into his pain. You let *him* be the Drama Queen, and held yourself above it as much as you could. You did good, girl.
I know that you're hurting, so come vent to us all you want. Get it off your chest and out so it doesn't fester. You've got our support.
I'll stop here, as anything else I type will be my own rant in your defense.
