How do I react
When my kids father guilts me with texts that he adores and misses me? I got the courage to separate from him after 14 yrs. We've only been living separately for 4 months and It's been so hard not having the extra help, but my mind is at ease finally..

If you’re at peace, that’s all that matters. He must be hurting a lot. You can say, “I’m sorry this is so hard, but I have to do it and I won’t be changing my mind.” You can also say, “I won’t be responding to texts like this anymore,” and then don’t respond. Don’t egg him on by being polite. He will stop eventually.
I feel like you stole my story and wrote it. I am at peace, too. I have decided that l only respond to chats about the kids, anything else l pretend l didn't see.
