Just make sure you stay NO CONTACT! No Communication whatsoever! Don't reply, don't respond in any way. Don't mention him in anyway whether subtle, by name or enuendo in any posts on public forums, to friends or family unless you implicitly trust them. The worst thing you can do is give him any attention or feeling that he has an affect on you. High conflict persons and/or the personality disordered thrive on drama and attention, even if it is negative. Protect yourself any way you can, but be careful. Harrassment is a serious issue and abusive high conflict people will not be detered by legal actions that tend ot escalate rather than help the situation. Seek legal advice, Therapy, whatever you have to do. Zero Attention/No Contact is the only way to go. Be Strong/Be Safe!

Stalking is now a crime. Report him.

Someone you're giving your new numbers to is fencing for him. You need to change your number and not tell anyone who doesn't absolutely need to know. 100%. Tell your boss and one or two close people. Anyone else tell them to message you on fb or something.

Ignoring is probably your best bet. Though if you're in the mood to have a little fun , you could use a method a friend of mine used when in a similar situation ... One of her kids had this electronic toy, that produced some really obnoxious, ear-splitting sounds. Whenever her problem human would call - she'd say nothing, and simply hold this gadget next to the phone. Stopped all calls after about a week !
(after almost a year of varied harrassment)

Not since yesterday.
Not really an ex, we only dated briefly. She tracks me down 2 or 3 times a year just to show she can. Her back ground is in a field tracking down people who do not wish to be located. She sent a few texts, probably does the same to other ex partners dates etc. She wanted to tell me she was spending the weekend with the family of a new guy.

Somewhat over 9 years of ending 10 year relationship he tried to come back after 2 years with a girl in Michigan. Thankfully was dating someone new at the time. Meanwhile he still gives this address to bill collectors, women sending him cheap jewelry and junk mail. I don't call him to tell them to stop - just goes in trash. Unfriended him on FB after my dog Aussie (in his care) died at 14.

A year of harrassing, haranguing, wheedling, cajoling, and/or flattering texts. I gritted my teeth and ignored until he evetually stopped. Didn't have to change my number.

He wasn't violent or threatening, just narcissistic, codependent, and totally out to lunch. I thanked my lucky stars when I'd heard he'd left town.

Sorry to hear you are going though this.... Maybe there is a legal recourse you can take in your country?

No. I guess I'm just not that loveable.

You are doing great, if you have been able to resist the urge to text/call him and tell him to knock it off. That's what a narcissist counts on. that they can still 'getch ya'. Absolutely you should report it to the police. Every few weeks. Not so that they take action necessarily, but so that they know it is still happening. So that if something escalates, they already know you and the history, and are far more likely to take it seriously at the time.

9mm's of "No".

That's super creepy. I've been through it. Continue to ignore him unless he threatens you, in which case be sure to save all messages and contact the police immediately. Does he know where you live?

Can you get some kind of order of protection from him? You've taken all reasonable steps to separate yourself from this asshole but apparently it's not enough. See if you can get law enforcement involved. What a loser he is.

Yes, even men occasionally encounter this ugliness. I have. Even though stalking is predominantly done by males- notice that I did not say by men - there re a few female practitioners as well - again not by true woment.

Thankfully no. Some folks just don't know when to call it quits. Hopefully you'll be able to get rid of that stalker for good soon.

My ex found me on a dating app and I never went back on there, except once. It was a profile made in the summer. He viewed it 2 weeks before I logged in again. The next day, he checked it again. I never deactivated it. I have not gone back on there though. I blocked him on FB and on my cell phone. He doesn't know where I moved to. He's a registered sex offender. He lied through the whole relationship. I did edit my bio on the app to brag about going back to college. He saw it.

Yeah. And it isn't fun at all. I've had two that were bad. I would report it if I were you. Just in case.

My ex is still trying to contact me online almost 5 years after I kicked his ass to the curb. He isn't brave enough to try to contact me in person though.

I think he could be problematic as he needs that power and he has none. id get the first punch in and get a restraining order because this sounds far from over.

not me but my sister had someone she met in Australia come to stalk her in Washington DC. It is not something to take lightly
