Got an apology from XH. Need advice now.

Music fest ended today. He must have sent that email when he got home from it.

So the "enjoy" makes no sense. Normally he ends with "enjoy your sabbatical" or "enjoy your writing."

I don't know...part of me does feel like emailing just something like this:

"Thanks for the AAA headsup. The rest of the email was pretty cruel."

That will trigger a "why", likely...which then I guess I'd have to answer? Like I said, he'd probably say something stupid like "I thought you were ok with everything." I guarantee you that he took what I said about MY being in a good place to mean that he did the right thing. He only hears what he wants to hear.

That's why my other instinct is to ignore him entirely.
