threats, threats and more threats

whoa. what a day. today I got a voicemail from estranged dear old dad that he is going to take me to court for visitation rights of my 5 year old. wow. Ok, so 3 lawyers later and I hear the same thing... he has no rights. My father is just trying to intimidate me and I dunno... it was working for a bit. I mean, that I'm still uneasy, but more confident. He thinks that I'm weak and he's right sometimes. I think we all have a spot that people can get to and it's only our most trusted ones that know this weakness. I guess my father was in that 'circle of trust' for some time now and knows that my weakness will always be my son. Low blow on his part and he just blew any chance of reconciliation. A bad thing about me is that once I remove you from my life - you almost never make your way back. My folks divorce will hopefully move along, but I know in the back of my head that I will always have this tiny bit of me that will wait for the other shoe to drop. I hate that my own father could want me to have this fear and it only hits home all the more as to why I have taken him out of my life.
