Thank you caz49. Hope your counselling continues to go well.

I've now blocked my husband's number as he insisted on sending me stupid messages asking me who I told and then accused me of not being civil because I didn't respond to him. If he wants to contact me he can email me or write me a letter. I want clear boundaries for myself. I don't anticipate hearing from him, he can't take responsibility for anything and has shown no interest in his child.

Whilst it sad he doesn't want to be involved, I cannot force him and it's better off he not be involved when he is so unreliable.
