I'm glad you had a few minutes where you didn't even think of him. I' sorry that he called all furious and blaming you. This is what they do though. And each time we respond instead of react, it gets easier and more comortable for us to deal with the addict.
Of course he is furious; you finally stood your own ground and stood up for yourself. He isn't use to that (but he will get use to it ).
Good for you!
One minute, hour, day at a time.
HUGS!
