[quote=Anonymous]I went no contact with my entire family. I did it in a few sentences. Some version of I will no longer be speaking to any of you, please do not contact me ever again, goodbye. No flowery five-page letters. Why? Because they already know what they did. I don't need to re-explain it to them, because I was there. They were there, too. They treated me very badly. You won't get abusive people to admit any fault. That's a fool's errand and a long letter only gives them the drama they crave. Then nothing changes. Case in point: you wrote that five-page letter, and what came of it? What got better?So how will a two-page letter help matters? You have to drop the rope all the way, walk away, shut the door and lock it, OP. Let them sit in the silence that they have earned. You owe them nothing. If they actually cared about you, then this wouldn't have happened. Google the term "radical acceptance", read it, do it, and mean it. We're done.[/quote]
