I'm posting today's latest installment of MLC weirdness. Below is an email I received from my H this morning and then my reply to his email.

I'll set this up a little. D17 received a text from her dad last weekend asking if she wanted the item. She told him no.

It is a dresser that ow had that they're wanting to get rid of. Personally, I can't believe my H sent me the email in the first place. When I answered him I set a boundary for myself.

H's email:
Quote:
I have a really good dresser that needs to go. Four drawer, light blue in color. Real wood, not that press board [censored]. Can D12 use it? Or anyone for that matter. Hate to toss it out. Let me know soon.

H,
There is only one thing I ever wanted from that house. A dresser is not it. Please do not offer anything like that again.
Thanks


I felt I accomplished a couple things with my answer. First, I let H know that the door is open a bit with out pursuing. Second, I set a boundary that shows that I'm not OK with what H is doing and to keep it to themselves. He wants that life over there then he can have it. I will not allow it to cross into mine.



I did not get a reply to my email. I did not expect one. I do not feel bad at all about my reply.
