Stalker Ex Won't Take a Hint... Plz Help Me Make Him Go Away
Question Posted Thursday June 2 2005, 12:37 am
I'm a 16 yr old girl. About a month and a half ago me and my bf broke up. I broke up with him because he kept running off and getting in trouble and was acting really immature. So now we are just friends, and seems comfortable with it but I know he isn't. One minute he acts like he is cool being friends with me, and then the next minute he begs for me back and to get a second chance. But I'm not giving him another chance because he can't ever change and I know it. I've told him many times that I'm not taking him back. At first I was nice, but I have even cussed him out because he was getting so clingy and annoying. He kept calling and showing up places where I would be just to "see me". He can't take the hint. I told him that if he doesn't want to be friends and can't handle that then we shouldn't talk anymore because he's acting like a stalker and it's getting really annoying. So I finally thought he had moved on. He got a new girlfriend and everything was cool. He wasn't calling as much anymore until out of nowhere he starts up again. He started calling all the fucking time and sending me creepy emails saying how sexy I am, how he misses me, and that he loves me.... while he has a fucking gf. So I told him off and then I find out he broke up with his gf and he is telling everyone we are getting back together. Is there any way that I can get this guy to take a hint b/c I have seriously tried everything and he just doesn't get it! Help!

In the mean time find a new man or hang out with your friends so that he gets the hit himself that your through with him.Hope I helped. [ lilaquidas18's advice column | Ask lilaquidas18 A Question ]

Tell him next time, and tell hin ONLY ONCE, that if he continues, that you will call the police. THen the next time he shows up where you are, or calls you or comes to your house. then make the call. The police have to respond. Even if they just talk to both of you, and end up going away. He will get the hint, that it is NOT OK to act in this manner. You could be saving yourself and future girls a lot of trouble if he gets the message at this young age. and PLEASE< PLEASE PLEASE, don't make the mistake of going back with him EVER in the future, no matter how much he seems to have changed and not matter how lonely you are. It just reinforces his beliefs that stalking and harrassing works. This is the kind of guy who will beat his wife and kids behind doors. There are way to many men out there like that. Listen to your gut feelings and stear clear. Take every threat seriously, and call the police.
I could tell you some nightmare stories from girls who felt uneasy and scared, but did not want to cause any trouble. They just wanted the guy to go away. Seems like a simple request doesn't it. But these guys are not normal, and they need more than simple reminders.
Good luck to you.
