Boundaries JustBMThings

Throwaway. DH and I disagree about boundaries with his ex (HCBM). As in her waiting until the middle of the night to bring up issues and him responding. She has repeatedly gone after me and I’m not one to back down which has caused conflict over the years. These messages not only (but mostly) pertain to their child, but seriously, she can’t communicate during normal hours (when HCBM is sober)? She knows of any and any all potential conflicts and waits. DH doesn’t really see an issue. Tell me your stories about establishing boundaries or not having proper boundaries with HCBM.
