I really loved you suggesting he get his stuff from a third person. Brilliant! Yes, they get a bit pushy when we do not respond immediately, even though they ignore us for months.
Try and remember, it does not matter one bit how he feels about your reply or when you give it. Take your time, patience. He has to learn he has zero control over you anymore!
I think you are doing amazing.
Thank you so much Mona52. I discovered just how pushy they can be yesterday
