Anyway, on to what I needed to talk about relates back to my phone again. This time, it's not so much of a problem with Anna Lum, my ex texted me yesterday. Now, for all that don't know, my ex is/was highly manipulative and pretty much kept me under his thumb with the threat of suicide. Kept using 'depression' as an excuse to get me to do x and y. Had me housebound, so I never really ventured out to where he lived etc. The kind of guy that made sure where I was every second of the day - and if, god forbid, I didn't have my phone with me, I'd go back to it with 25 missed phonecalls, you get the picture. There was a pretty long list of things I wasn't allowed to do, too. Down to the trivial of not dyeing my hair, to the pretty bad 'not having a job', which could've royally messed up my future when employers see I've been doing nothing for x amount of time.
I suppose that's complaintsy enough, right? Right.
It was pretty messed up and I was getting to the point where if he pulled the suicide card, I'd quite gladly hand him the rope so I said enough was enough and cut off all contact with him, and that was about maybe a year and a half ago? Heh, he even gave me conditions of breaking up.
Anyway, yesterday night he sends me this in a text:
"I know it's a long time ago, but I want to apologise for all the wrong I did to you. I hope you're still chasing and achieving your dreams."
I'm over everything he put me through and everything, but what do I respond with?
I'm inclined to text back nothing, while my boyfriend has suggested 'thanks for the fire-red', 'die', or 'that's great, but who is this?'.
It would be quite amusing on my part to reply as Anna.
Anyway, suggestions, everyone? I don't know what to do!
