Well, it might be nasty for the sake of being nasty or it might be her talking about the situation as she sees/saw it. My initial take is that it was nasty for nasty's sake, but is it not possible it is the latter? How are are we to know when we should ignore and when we should validate?
Lefty, you're in a contentious D, with a woman who sends what you describe as nasty texts, and in the past has had a TRO on you (isn't that right?)
I think it's time for more ignoring and less validation.
As difficult as it is.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
