Vge, you are handling your situation with h really well.

Its hard not to engage in a conversation with h, but if he is starting to spew then I would ignore the texts, don't answer them - when he can be civil towards you and treat you as you deserve, then I would reply. You do not need to defend yourself, you have done nothing wrong, you have encouraged your children to "play nice" with their dad and as long as you know that and they know that then your conscious is clear.

He is try to raise a reaction from you, don't give him the satisfaction of knowing he has rattled you. Play it cool if you can, I do appreciate it is really hard.

Vge - your children have a voice, they see, they know, they will remember all of this and your h will find out he is the bad guy and not the saint he makes himself out to be. Hang on in there my friend, you are doing so well.

And lets get off your h and back to you - how are you doing, what have you been up to lately ?

hugs to you - keep your faith strong, it will keep you moving forward with your own life. Love, peace and strength to you.
