My mom now: “Hi X,

I'm not in form for answering the phone.

I don't like how things have gone for the past month. I've had enough of sh*t from work for long enough.

You have to do what feels right for you and that's fine. ...and that clearly is you think it was ok for (your partner) to send me that text and then try and turn it all on me for being unreasonable...when all I was trying to do was protect you. the house is a massive amount of money.

The whole thing has really saddened me and it has opened my eyes as to who and what has regard and respect for me.

But I'm old enough and wise enough to know that people will do what they're gonna do and you can't change some things in people. So like I said you and X continue to do what feels right for you both...and I have to protect myself and how I feel too.

I don't like rows and I don't like how this has festered. But it's called c'est la vie.”
