Ohhhh... Time. Hugs Hugs. I'm so sorry he's giving you such a hard time. I fear if you try to defend yourself against it he'll just subject you to more abusive comments... what he's saying is so outrageous and harmful. I'm glad to hear you have a reliable car that isn't tied to him. How are your spirits holding up? I'm here at my desk for a bit yet post away if you need someone to listen. I wish I had something more concrete to offer you for advice...
I cannot complain for not receiving from others, that which I've never asked them for.
