You stay firm and know that you are doing what is best for him even if he does not realize it now. I had this happen to me and I did the same. I eventually moved away for a while so he could lay off without access to me.

Do him a favor and just be firm.

Welcome to the board hazelnut25,


Don't allow yourself to be emotionally manipulated.

Thanks for the kind words. I asked him the other day "Do you know what codependency is?" and he said everybody needs a little codependency in their lives. It really scared me. Every little thing he does not is beginning to irritate me. I guess I'm just going to have to be the bad guy as you said and just completely push him away. I've spoken with some friends, and they have told me it might not be a bad idea to change my phone number after all.

I'm going to do it soon. Wish me luck.
