Job - looks like he's returning to some of his favorite oldie but goodie tactics.

Yesterday he sent me another text (long groan) and was again quite aggressive. It was just a general text about finances but he did make a few jabs at me. Most noteworthy he said something like "you are not a responsible adult" and inferred that he is. That's interesting considering the circumstances.

I ingnored it completely (didn't think about it too much) and that felt great as I am pretty sure he is trying to get me to fight via text, his favorite battleground.

A few hours later another text (he needs a smaller data plan). This time he is asking me to remove the email that links our credit card to a certain service we use. He had asked me to do this a while back and I did it but then recently, I needed to login and re-activated my email and forgot to de-activate it. He tells me if I cannot deactivate this he will "regrettably" have to cancel me off that credit card. Then he finishes by telling me "to stop making his life so hard."

This kind of stuff reminds me of how he was pre-BD. He was looking for fights.

I ignored that one too. But this morning as I was leaving to drop off kids I told him the card will be deactivated within the day. I was pleasant and quick.

I came home after dropping off the kids and h made a joke and was acting all charming. I joked back but also walked right on by.

Seriously, it's like 2 people: the texting personality and the in-person personality.
