My ex won't leave me alone. How do I stop him?

I broke up with him last night after he went agro at me for having guy friends. Jealousy overtook, I tried explaining but he was so irrational, so I dumped him and told him it wasn't going to work. I still have feelings for him. But we are better off not continuing this relationship.

He has been calling/texting/leaving messages/drove to my house/rang my best friends (including the guys)/ringing my parents all today. I want to avoid him as i am not ready to see him. How do i make him go away so we both don't get hurt.

Help. Please.
Do you think it's normal?

get a gorilla boyfriend who like the beat up little stalker fags
As for those text messages, simply block him.

Constant telephone calls are harassment and you can report him to the phone company and/or police. But you could try speaking to his parents and explaining how he is pestering you before you make any calls to the authorities.
Ok first off Moi your nuts dont make this into a bigger deal then it is not only will she make him look bad but she will make the break up into more then it really is. You still have feelings for him so you dont want to embarass him by calling the cops or his parents or even your own parents. First off I think you need to sit back and think was having so much contact with your "guy friends" right while you were in a relationship? I know they are your friends but really sit back and make sure you are not the type of girl who begs for attention from guys because ive seen alot of girls who are that way but wont believe it. He may be a jealus person but there must be a reason why he was jealus that was some what your fault. If you do want it all to end with him then you need to really take the time to talk to him about it but you only broke up with him last night so how do you konw it wont stop in a few days give him time to get over it before you jump to conclusions. GOOOD LUCK
If this guy will not listen to you quit trying to be nice to him and don't see him ever again. Sending conflicting messages is plain wrong and don't hint that you will ever get back to spending time with him. You did right in dumping a jealous guy who is controlling. It is a big deal if people don't listen and pester you continually. Speak to his parents is the first step, changing your phone call is the second step (with your parents approval). The third step is to contact the police. Hopefully the third step will be unnecessary but if he is irrational, you may have to take it. Props to you for cutting off this guy and never look back.
Sispous she broke up with him YESTERDAY he isnt a stalker he is just upset and freaking out a little bit doing all that crap now is crazy on her part she needs to give him time and see if he stops, you guys are killing me i mean what if she really does call the police because of your advice and its only been one day.
Yes, you are right, but I suggested calling the police only as a third step. Irrational people tend to do irrational things and can become dangerous, so the police involvement is justified if he persists in contacting her. What you permit, you promote and if she doesn't stand up for herself, he will likely not let up.
Thank you both. I am still avoiding him. I dont want to report him. At least not yet.

Thanks. Chris, I have stopped seeing most of my guy mates. Matt and I grew up together, we are liek brother and sister. I used to see him everyday, now its only like once every week. And we were going to go watch some rugby. But my boyfriend couldn't handle it. He pushed me against the wall and just went agro.

Its not the first time. when I went into town with my bf and a group of friends, a guy bought me a drink. My bf just went agro and gave the poor guy a black eye and got him winded.

I care for him, but I dont want him to turn against me like this. Telling his parents won't help. He doesnt live at home.

Can I not talk it out with him? will taht calm him down?
@: Couture
Yeah well hes not the guy for you if he gets mad over that, not meaning he cant ever have a girl friend but he cant handle the fact that you have guy friends he needs to get a girl who doesnt have any. Now he should never touch you like put you agaisnt the wall you are a girl and he needs to realize that the more you talk the more he sounds like a jerk. I think you can talk it out with him I think its the best thing to do whats killing him is how you are ignoring him thats whats making him act crazy imagine being close to someone like everyday then all of the sudden they wont give you the time of day it hurts so talk to him tell him whats up and how its going to be but be nice and dont give in to his advances if you want to stick with your choice then hang in there he will have to get over it.
Okay thank you SO much.
Not much to say that hasent already been said, but just so you know ending with him was the right call, ppl like that will only escalate, you could have ended up in a very nasty situation :S



Peace jah bless
Although this guy is jealous possessive, and not what you need and you are better off rid of him.

i do feel for this guy. I got finished with three months ago, i thought she was the one and I thought she was absolutley perfect.

She finished with me and my world fell apart. I carried on with no contact from me to her, wishing that she would contact me.

However three nights ago I find out (from her mother)that when she finished with me I should have dropped everything and run to her, thats what she wanted and also that if Ide have just contacted her we wouldnt have ended up broken up.

Amazingly for two weeks before the break up I had dropped everything to move her to a new job (3 hours away from me). I work away and when she did the break up with me, two days before I was due to go to work (3000 miles away!) I was meant to drop everything and drive three hours to her!Ontop of that she's the one who finished it and I'm the one who was meant to contact her....

The point of all this is although this guy sounds scary with the violence and all, we guys arent often too good at knowing what women really mean, did you wind him up in any way? I am not trying to blame you because he obviously has a problem, but do take time to sit and think.

He obviously has a problem with his jealousy but I have never met a bloke yet that wont get jealous if hees given a reason too.
two words...SHOT GUN
police lol ignore all texts and calls i duno
@: Couture
Listen to sisophous I think he is one of the true people on here out to help others! I lisyen to what he has to say..may not always like it but once you read what he has to saay it makes since! So yeah I think he has the answers! I am courious is the guy still trying to contact you?

How long did you date him? Is one little problem worth dumping him? I mean there is always gooing to be little problems in relationships!!! Try working thingsout... not necessarily this time but keep it in mind!

Good luck!!!
I don have intimate encounters. If you call watching rugby and cheering a sexual encounter then yeh im guilty.
There's so many ways to handle this situation, my favorite form is violence. You give terror a new meaning to your ex by scaring him so bad he might leave town, but this requires physical strength/stamnina and above all, the ability to get vindictive.

Either this or tell him he's a worthless jealous fuckhead and not worth you nor your time, and that if he doesn't stop, you'll get the authorities to make him.
tell him to fuck off, if that doesnt work, get a damn restraining order.

jeez girl you need to know how to deal with dushe bags
you need to get a restraining order before something happens...
Kick him in the nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnuts!

He will probably be hurt and angry.
But u can laugh ur ass off.
Hmm, I actually found a legitimate post. Sounds like it at least.

Well, you do need to see him. Sit him down and make him understand his controlling side was making u upset. If that doesn't work, well, call the cops on him.

And if that still doesn't work, well, ur creative, come up with something.
Hire an assassin, have him killed, but make sure the dumb assassin makes it quick and painless so that you dont "hurt" him, then you can go on with your life and he wont go on with his or bother you.

Dont I give good advice?! :D
What, we're all just going to assume that this woman is the victim? I've known the reverse to be true. You know the classic story:

-Guy meets girl.
-Girl and guy fall in love.
-Girl and guy eventually get married.
-Girl has a child and guy finds out the joy of fatherhood.
-Girl moves a thousand miles with the kid, starts having sex with guy's former friend, tells the guy she still loves him in the process, ignores his phone calls, begs him for money, refuses to share custody of the child, won't get a divorce, won't try to repair the relationship, and thinks she's the victim because the guy made a joke about her not being pretty.
two words: Restraining Order.

'Nuff said.
