I'm going to see Satan in 6 days - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Well, that's what I call my ex-boyfriend anyways. This man did such a number on me it's amazing that I'm still standing. I don't WANT to see him, but there's a convention that I can't get out of, and apparently he invited himself.

Any words of wisdom?

He's already tried to test the waters by texting some of my friends. This is not going to be an easy weekend for me. Say a prayer, please.

Praying.

don't let him have any power over you - if he approaches you let him know that you don't want to talk to him and tell him to leave you alone.

better yet, ask one of the friends he contacted to text him back and tell him to stop being a stalker, and let him know that he is making you consider not going to the event out of concern for your safety

If your ex was that horrible to you, why haven't your friends blocked his texts? Seriously, I've stayed semi-friendly with a lot of my friends exes (break ups were non-dramatic and adult all around), but there are one or two who should pray that I never run into them in public.

That being said, ignore him. If he starts to talk to you, walk away. If he persists, let hotel/convention security know. That's what they are there for.

Me too. Get this, I am still friends with a few of my exes, I talk to my brother's exgirlfriend on Facebook (she's a sweet girl and they broke up amicably), and here's the kicker, this weekend my dad hosted a garage sale with my ex best friend's ex husband. Yeah this sounds weird but my ex best friend was a psycho and I dumped her as a friend (she is a long story it's bizarre). Her husband had enough and divorced her. No, I have zero interest in her ex husband but I truly feel he deserves better and put up with crap from her.

Anyway, OP, I would still go but make sure you avoid him. Maybe take a friend or if not feasible look busy if he comes by you.

Liza, schotzette's advice is right on the $. if I were in your shoes, that's what I'd do. Praying for you

Was your ex-boyfriend abusive to you, Liza?

Not physically, just emotionally.

I knew he was going to try again with me, and I was right. Here's the text messages he sent. (Keep in mind we haven't spoken in 3 years!)

Will: Emily...
Me: Yes?
Will: How are you?
Me: Why are you texting me?
Will: Would you rather I called?
Me: No.
Will: My mistake.

(I resisted the urge to text back YA THINK???)

Unless he's someone you would like to stay friends with, block his a$$ from texting you or calling you. If you are on FB, block him there as well. I've stayed friends with a few exes who were generally good people, but one or two have no place sharing my universe.

Actually, what's funny is that HE had blocked ME after I dumped him (the last time). And I'd deleted his number off my phone over a year ago. So when he first started texting me it took me a minute to figure out who it was!

The good news is that I asked him to not bother me, and he hasn't.

I've also got a bunch of friends going to the convention that have all promised me that I will NOT be left alone with him. My one friend (who is 4'6" by the way) offered to rip his throat out if I wanted her to. Awww, friends
