Thank you AJ! You are absolutely right, I have no idea what he's said about me ( I keep forgetting that!), I'm just used to his mother being crazy/controlling LOL. I was feeling very vent-y (yeah, I created another word) this morning, but if I really think things through like a rational person, he has lied a lot, so of course he would be lying to his family too, and they would accept it as truth. Maybe I am just looking for someone to blame other than him, IDK.
I don't think it helps that right after I posted I got a text from his dad, it breaks my heart that he wants a relationship with them and they won't give him the time of day. At least I got to wish him a Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday. He asked for H's phone number but I told him I can't do that and apologized. His response, tell him to grow the hell up. I told him I would if I thought that would help, but it won't, this takes time, especially for someone who was already stubborn to begin with.
Anyway, Thank you again AJ, your post really helps, more than you know! Have a fantastic Christmas!
