Dear Lindsey:

Thank you. If I don’t feel fresh later this afternoon, after a walk outside maybe, I will post you again Fri morning. I want to be focused when I do.

There is a better way for you to deal with this man, the father of your two children, so that you experience way less distress, set a few rules of behavior in regard to him, so that you keep your calm.

For the rest of the day, relax best you can. I know that you worry a lot about people (ex included), thinking you are crazy or desperate or unstable (“My worry is I don’t want anyone to think I’m crazy or desperate or unstable”, March 2019), but I want to tell you that over 50 pages of your thread, you appear to me consistently and exceptionally (!) sane, sensible and gracious in your communication with me. So really, you are not crazy or desperate or unstable, is what I think.
