Just adding on to Phoenix's post, the "I just wanna talk" messages came to me aplenty. At first I fell for it. It never ended well, which led to my strict NC boundaries. She would continue to send me the "Can I have one minute?" Or "It's important, it will just take a moment" messages for a while.
I didn't respond to those because:
A) If it's THAT important, put it in the message. B) If it will only take a minute, put it in the message.
I would not be concerned with not getting temp checked. I think you know you just need to push forward with the process. It's actually easier with less interaction.
I know you miss him, but he's not the same person anymore. And TBH, when this is all over you won't be the same person anymore either. You'll be a smarter, wiser, stronger, and more confident version of you.
Save yourself. Nobody is coming! BD:11/2017 Filed:12/2017 Final: 2/2018
