Great response to the text! He probably was trying to gauge your reaction....my H tries to push my buttons too

When he calls just be very calm, take silent deep breaths through the call if needed, and be positive -- just know YOU will feel so much better for doing so!

As for the MIL try not to read too much into it. When my H first left I tried to explain what I thought was happening, I did not accuse him of anything and was not mean. She accused me of getting pregnant on purpose, I was a bitch that's why he left, I wanted everyone in my family to be on pills (S18 has ADHD and is on meds) and it went on. She later apologized. I accepted. We have not talked since She believes what she needs and I'm doing it all while her son does whatever
