Ex boyfriend won't leave me alone!

[Naymay]

Hey guys,

 

I've recently broken up with my boyfriend after catching him cheating on me and he won't stop trying to contact me.

I gave back all of his possessions via a friend as I did not want to see him and now hes calling my family/friends (I've blocked his number) saying I've forgotten some of his things and that he won't stop contacting until he gets these back. I have 100% given back all his things, he's being very rude and I do not want him to contact me anymore. But I'm starting to get worried he'll come to my house and do something stupid, he's very unpredictable when angry.

 

Could he be making this up to talk to me?

Should I just ignore him and hope he'll stop or am I able to get authorities involved? I live in Qld, Australia.

If he's unpredictable to the point where you feel your safety is being threatened then by all means get the authorities involved. If Australia's laws are similar to U.S. laws then ask your friends and family to keep all of his texts and phone calls as evidence as harassment so that you will then be able to file a restraining order against your ex. Unfortunately I only have knowledge of U.S. laws to go on and I just know that the crap he's pulling with you would earn him a restraining order here. I hope this somewhat helps.

How is he able to contact you? My ex still - 11 months after I left her - tries contacting me but I've blocked her number, email, work email, deleted my Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram, then eventually had to change my number after she changed hers and contacted me from it. And she has no way to get to me so her new game is that she tries friending family, friends and coworkers of mine. And the next time she shows up at my place (like she did 2 months ago) the police are getting called.

 

If he still has a way to contact you, it's likely because you're giving him a way to.

Yes give your family the heads up about all this you stated here and ask them to block him. Most likely he is making something up in order to stalk you. You may need grounds for a restraining order, so see what the laws are for your area.

 

Unfortunately he is clever enough to claim his contact is solely in regard to collecting his belongings, which he is in fact allowed to pursue. To make this go away, generate a paper trail and email him requesting him to specifically detail what items he is referring to.
