Yes he does. You know Meadow - again, not trying to scare you, but I read a lot here on SR and elsewhere and this guy strikes me as really off-balanced. Not to say any addict is the epitome of rationality and there are certainly so many stories of abuse as well (unfortunately).
Again, please keep your guard up. It looks like you won't be able to get the - leaving with kindness you would like, although that's a very nice idea. As long as you are still in contact with him he will continue to send abuse.
