From one Sasha to another - although I am from the 'other side' so to speak, I had not heard of JADE but I will be using it.
I had a row with my brother in law.
He is big into humiliating people and making them feel small.
He fell out with me and insisted I apologise.
I did but did not mean it.
He sent a huge, huge long text about how hard his life was, how he is sometimes so tired he cannot wash up and dry plates from the evening meal. That he fights to keep his eyes open at work.
It went on and on and on and on and on and then on some more.
It was just under a year ago since he sent it.
I have never replied or acknowledged it.
I never will.
I feel a lot of inner peace from not being dragged into anymore of his rants and ridiculous texts.
I have nothing more to do with him and it suits me no end.
I am also a mum on my own.
I have an arrangement where I do not really to talk to my ex unless it is for the benefit of my daughter.
It was hard at first, but now its second nature. I think it helped me heal from the break up not discussing anything other than our child.
It will be interesting how he deals with your non response.
He is probably checking his inbox all the time expecting a reply and he will be puzzled when nothing arrives.
Take lots of care xx
