      But deep down i know i needed to tell her to stop texting me as that chapter is over now , i havde to have no contact with their family, just hurts cause in the end she was the only one that made effort to ask how we were, unless it was just all a mind game , i dont know cant work it out

      Hey there, i know how hard it is to cut ties with people who have been part of our lives for years. But for your own peace of mind i would not engage again. It just causes triggers and worry and brain chatter. It puts our recovery back. Block her number from now on. Its like opening an old wound. If my husbands family contacted me i would be very very suspiscious. He may not be involved but the thought is enough to trigger paranoia and trauma again. Another lesson learned x

      Good on you for standing up to her.

      Block her. They should have stood up for you when it counted. You don’t need them in your life.

      Look how far you’ve come x

      my opinion you cannot trust her as she’s his family… she might just be trying to nose into whatever’s going on with you to report it back to him… you never know. be careful what you text back and my advice is not reply at all again. just block her number. and remember that the reason things are the way they are is not because of your behaviour, but his x
