Thanks Allen and June! Appreciate the input (and sympathetic ears!)
Just got off another call with Larry. The money move - as frustrating as it is - is part of the addiction, part of the test to try and run me off. Men behaving badly, MLC/WH style. We have officially reached the "two steps forward, three steps back" part of the program, folks.
Unfortunately, it will get worse before it gets better.
If I get all worked up about it, he wins. If I remain calm, cool, and collected - in spite of his antics - he'll have no choice but to stop. Newton's Law.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."
If he can't GET a reaction, he'll stop acting. Or he'll take his venom/antics elsewhere. Most likely candidate? OW. Since she had me arrested for sending her a nasty email, it should be interesting to see THAT fallout...LOL!
In the meantime, I will check into his legal obligations financially. Knowing his family history of hoarding money, it's better to be safe than sorry --
