DO NOT ACT unless you are in a position of STRENGTH. You are not there based on how you just wrote this.

Look, I get how you feel and I KNOW you are worth more than this, but don't you DARE do this unless you have the backbone to back it up. YOU are doing this to get a reaction. DON'T!

I support your choice and actually agree this is the best remedy, BUT not with this attitude. You have a boundary, but you wreak of weakness with this approach.

No owing, No I'm sorry, No nothing. You take it with an approach of "I CAN'T AND WILL NOT". IF you do this at all. It's all in your confidence. Just the brief read I got....You are not in that correct position.
