Soo, I have an ex that I broke up with because I found out he cheated...probably the entire 2 years we were together.
So, when we broke up (about 1 year and a half ago)..it was BAD. I mean really BAD. And, I had become Best Friends with some of his friends and their GFs. When we broke up, a lot of stuff came out that he did, so almost all of them stoppen being his friends. I had to get a restraining order when we broke up, because he was stalking/harassing me. It's expired now.
I am still close with his former best friend and his gf. In fact, they love FH and are both in our BP!
Well, he's up to his old tricks again. Not bothering me, but emailing & calling everyone and telling them DISGUSTING UNTRUE things about me. Like, things I can't even repeat.
Do I just ignore it? I'm trying, but it still hurts my feelings..just that these things are out there, in email, myspace, voicemails, texts and they aren't true. He's copied people that are still his friends too. He even emailed people that were orignally MY friends..like my BFF from 2nd grade!
It makes me so angry that he's doing this and there's nothing I can really do, because he's not doing TO me.

Does anyone believe him? I mean i know its still bad just hearing that he is saying these things to everybody but if he is saying to the friends that knows you well and are still friends with you then most will probably just think he is jealous that you are getting married and this is his way of getting back at you. Its hard because the point of him doing all this is to get back to you and get your attention, probably even to call him so you can tell him to stop and by doing so you'll do exactly what he wants you to do, but sometimes you do feel there is no other option. Would he even listen if you called and told him to stop? it can fuel him more sometimes to call. You mentioned his best friend and gf are in your bp, can you talk to his best friend to get him to stop doing this and to tell your ex that his actions just show everybody how pathetic and jealous he is and just making a fool of himself, maybe he can knock some sense into him. I am sorry, i know this can be hard but I hope nobody is taking him seriously and that he will stop soon. The problem with calling yourself is that he will think that if he does anything bad like this he can get you to call him and it won't stop him in the future from doing so.
Do you know anybody good with photoshop, maybe edit a pic of him and make it look like hes in bed with another guy or something and then post that everywhere on myspace. Sorry just try to make light of the situation although might not be a bad idea but that might fuel him more and won't stop. Giving in to him will make him continue, tell all his friends to ignore him and just tell him he is wrong and stupid.
: LOVE your suggestion about photo shopping idea!!!
Yea, I really feel like if I do anything, it would just fuel his fire. His formed BF doesn't talk to him anymore. He hates him more than I do, if that's possible. No one believes it, but they all called me to tell me and it just hurt.
Thank Goodness for FH!! He's the best man I've ever met!
yeah it would be histerical but honestly that will just anger him more and make him think of new things and it will be this back and forth war and you really don't want that. Well good thing nobody believes him, so that should make it just a little bit better. Ignoring him is the best thing to do, like i said he is only doing it in hopes of you calling him to tell him to stop or you doing something back and going back and forth on this situation. In his sick head its his way of being connected to you. This way you are talking about him, people still hear about you and him in some sort of way and if you call and fight then its like a couple fighting which is how he'll probably view it. He wants to see if he can still get to you, don't give him that satisfaction. I also had to learn to just ignore it all completely and they do learn, bc no matter why youre calling if you do call its him staying connected to you. But for a long time to go on with no phone calls, no connection at all and you not caring at all will show him how you don't care to have him in your life in at all and nothing he can do can change your current situation or how happy you are.
Honestly, he is the one making a fool of himself. Ive also seen situations where i know the 2 people and one ex will do this and you know what i always think how pathetic the other one is and how they need to move on already. You come out on top by being the bigger person and he is the one hurting himself
good luck
Thanks, you're right. I already had to change my phone number, block his myspace and change my email address. This was all right after I got engaged and he found out.
I'm going to ignore it for now and if anything else happens, I'll renew the restraining order.

Re: EX Vent- need suggestions...LONG, SORRY!
This stinks and I agree, he needs to grow up and move on!
But I don't want to be a downer, but I would be careful about posting certain things here, as far as wedding location, dates and times, etc. My FH has a crazy ex that I don't trust and that is why I don't have any of thos things posted here. I just feel better to be safe than to deal with that on your wedding day. (just in case)
Just want you to be careful about that.
I Hope he will get bored soon and move on.

Re: EX Vent- need suggestions...LONG, SORRY!
I agree with the opinions from the court employee. I have a crazy ex husband. The abuse won't stop by ignoring it. You need to call the DA and get a restraining order again. It is libal, not slander. Have everyone print out whatever they received. Get proof together. It is harrassment. You can go to your local police station with the information and they will do their investigation. Once done, they can supeona his computer, phones, etc, whatever he is using. It doesn't have to be directly at you. It will only get worse if you don't stop it. I am speaking from experience. Her is my story: I found out my ex-husband posted on match.com a profile on me. He stated untrue things about me. I brought this to the attention of the local police station. Less than three months later, they finished the investigation. I had to fill out the arrest paperwork and they went and arrested him. He spent 24 hours in jail. I received a new order of protection against him. Currently, he refuses to plead guilty, blames it on my son and we are going to trial soon. It is a long road but you need to stop him. You have reasons to be concerned for your life. Take it seriously, because it is. My ex-husband was physically and mentally abusive to me when we were married. He tried running me over a few times after we separated and a few other things. I knew I had to stop him and this is what I had to do. Don't ignore it. It won't go away. Good luck.

that is horrible I think your friends should put him in place delete his e-mails and not tell you what he is saying what you do not know will not hurt you your wedding is 4 months from now let me him talk his talk you know the truth and thats all that matters and you have a good man that loves you and has your best interest at heart what he is doing is just reminding you of why he isn't in your life and you can say thank you for showing me that there are better things in life and sorry that you are stuck in the past

Re: EX Vent- need suggestions...LONG, SORRY!
He can be sued, what he is doing is illegal in so many ways! If I were you, i'd just start gathering proof of ways he's been defaming your character and stalking you...it's really horrible that you're going through this, wow!
