We can make up some snappy replies for fun.
But, since I am a dowdy old lady, I think that I would recommend a dowdy plan (at least for the next couple of weeks).
I think that your resolve to stay away from him is very tenuous. It is better than before, but it is still really hard for you. So I think that until it is easier, that you should protect yourself as much as you can. That would mean avoiding him (not calling, but also not talking to him if he calls you).
Nowhere does it say that you have to be polite to him. If he calls you can say "I can't talk now" and then hang up.
I feel like I'm telling you what to do (gee, maybe because I am). I can be bossy all of the time, and it is hard for me to let people make their own decisions. I guess that I want you to protect yourself. But I guess I would feel better if I knew what YOUR decision about this guy is. I know what MY decision about him is, but it isn't my decision to make. It is yours.
I can give you ideas of things to do to implement your decisions, but don't let me make your decisions. Please?
Do you have fun plans (or even non-fun plans) for the weekend?
