“Divorce Dilemma”
I told him I was going home to be with my parents while they were finalizing their divorce. He made a lame comment—then gasped. He said he forgot his parents’ anniversary the week before and spent five minutes trying to remember if he had sent a card or not, if they noticed he hadn’t sent a card, if his dad’s tone of voice had changed on the phone, etc., etc.

Aftermath: I let him stay through the night and then did the mature thing and ignored his calls.
the mature thing to do is ignore his calls? That IS a good way to end any and all communication.
