Yes, you're right - resist going back to him, meaning trying again at our relationship, which i AM resisting. I am relying on him right now as a friend, and have told him on no uncertain terms that we're NOT getting back together.

I understand it's a slippery slope, and here I am again, needing help from him. But that's as far as I will take it. My landlord is a slumlord and never would have offered me space heaters. I had no one else to call.
