Creeping through no man's land

[ACJ]

Yes you are right my R with my mother was very strained as a child and young adult BUT I always respected her. Even when she forbade me to go on holiday with H the year after we met I respected her wishes and did not go. I was 20 and by the time the holiday came round (which he went on with a friend) we were engaged.

I will probably get shot down for this but I really feel that now is the time for S16 to stand up and be counted. I've done everything I possibly can especially since he moved in with H and he has not responded in any way. I have to show tough love for a while at least. He has to know that he has to be accountable for his own actions. He sees none of that with H and OW and so I know it will take a while. I doubt I will see him at all at Christmas now but that has to be his decision. I'm sure H is rubbing his hands with glee but you know what I really don't care what he thinks anymore.
