LL,

Darn it I'm so sorry to hear of such an unpleasant experience for you tonight. You should not have found yourself feeling like you were compelled to have to write such a letter, or post about it either. I hope that you were able to release some of the poison that affected you by writing anyway.

It probably won't all be resolved in a single night, so at least get the rest you need right now after the trip. I can tell that you are very hurt and fed up and who wouldn't be? It was a cold shot he threw at you, which could knock anyone off balance, especially someone like yourself who has so much heart. Once some of the raw anger you feel subsides more, you should be able to think more clearly about how you would like to proceed from here forward. If at all possible try not to add fuel to it by allowing yourself to be reactive to his negativity. Very hard to do, I know, but he may be baiting you into more conflict so don't take the bait!
