Chloroform The One You Love

[Sandy_wants_to_try]

I think it was talked about - not answering - and then you said you didn't have Caller ID, and then someone suggested a cheap version and you said you couldn't spend the money.

That's OK , you don't have to have caller ID.

Try not to answer his calls.
BUT, if you have to answer them:
1. Keep the call short.
2. No Relationship talk (this is DB 101!)
3. be the first to hang up. Say, listen, I'd love to chat right now, but Felina's in the tub, Baby's got her hands in a mess, goota go. Talk to ya later.
4. Just be polite. Keep your distance. Don't feed into his drama. Don't feed into his cycles.
5. Have a list of things you wont talk about him for a while. Make (Insert mean nick-name for Cassie that you haven't invented yet here) one of those subjects.
6. Cut it short in a nica way possible as soon as you feel emotions start to come on. As soon as you feel you're going to ask hum toc ome back, scream at him, whatever... hang up!

This is all DBing 101, Emily. I think it's time you read the book again.
