There was a time in my life when my ex-husband use to call me and start a fight. He always knew what to say to get under my skin. In essence he stole my peace and worst than that I let him. There was this saying that goes “never argue with a fool.” Do you know why? Because you can’t tell which one is the fool; so true. So what I decided to do was to ignore him. I would let him say what he had to say and I wouldn't say a word. It took his power away. In fact, afterwards, he didn't know how to take me. His harassing phone calls eventually stopped. Most of the time when he called I didn't answer the phone and when I did talk to him it would always be brief then I would pass the phone on to our daughter. I couldn't stop him from calling my house because we had a child together but I could control his access to me. I realized that I was contributing to the problem. My advice for today is Stop Arguing with a fool, just smile and keep it moving. Eventually they will get your message.
