TnD,

Sorry you've slipped back into the dark ages frown

Remember this moves in fits and starts, one step forward - two back and so forth.

It looks like you're still engaging "the alien" - the freak out. Maybe you could try texting the "alien", next time he "freaks",

"I am sorry you are upset, but I don't like the way you are talking to me right now so let's wait until you feel better to have this talk."

And then YOU don't respond until he changes his tune.

Have you read about going dim/dark? This technique might help you.

Make today better!!

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow.
What you stop.
And what you reinforce.
