What toxicity? That she would like to be alone while dealing with the eye surgery? That's where his PUNITIVE blocking of her started. It was not a boundary being set there with decent and respectful communication, but punitive blocking with demeaning insults. Please go back to the start of this thread and read how that happened if you didn't see it.

But if he says he needs space, then no matter how bad it feels she can’t demand that she has rights to keep finding ways to contact the person.
See above.

I don’t understand how not wanting to talk to someone encroaches on their rights. If someone doesn’t want to talk to me, it would hurt but in no way it violates my rights. Rights to do what? Speak to those who don’t want to talk to me? No such rights exist
That's put too general. I think I already explained what I had in mind in my previous posts. I described when it's boundary setting and when it's punitive blocking and stonewalling.
