I’m looking for advice with a problem I’ve been dealing with in my life. I’ve been dating someone for about 8 months and the relationship itself it’s good. However, he has a psychotic ex who has been posting videos harassing (not actual threats though) me, him, my son and his father, gf, and their son. It gets so draining dealing with it because it’s upsetting seeing the posts, and also my sons father gets mad at me for dating this guy when this is happening. But he has no control over it. Reporting hasn’t done much. The police won’t help. I don’t know what to do. Everyone is acting like I’m not putting my son first, but my son is not in any danger. He has no clue any of this is going on. I guess I’m looking for advice as to how to handle this and what to do about it. It’s really effecting all of our mental health a lot. TIA.
This is his responsibility to take care of this situation. You should not have to deal with it.
He’s gone to the police. We have both reported the posts. We’ve done everything we can do. He even tried a restraining order but it didn’t work
I think it’s good that he is in on this but I think you need to release this from your list of responsibilities. All we can do is the best we can do and this is his ex. He knows more and has more knowledge and power. Leave this to him and take care of yourself and your family unit.
Plus it’s funny. The less the current woman cares the less the ex seems to care if she is not upsetting you.
Oh my word! This is crazy. Why won't the police do anything?
Unfortunately this woman is crazy and even not reacting to any of it doesn’t make her stop
I’m guessing because there’s no real threat or proof that it’s her behind the accounts
They cannot do anything unfortunately until someone is physically harmed. Think of yourself first, is it worth it to you to put yourself through this already dealing with whatever you have to deal with? I am not saying let her win, I am just saying love yourself more.
Oh my love. I've had a crazy ex wife of someone I used to date. She stalked my life through Instagram and harassed my boss and best friend. Called my parents. Terrible stuff. People suck.
Just be patient and careful. Take screenshots and document everything while not reacting to her. she will eventually do something stupid and take care of herself. You will have to be patient and it may test your love for your boyfriend. But if yall make it through this (still sober 
), then you can get through anything!
Disconnect from the garbage and be like your son-oblivious to it. People are gonna do what they are gonna do, there is nothing you can do about it. Just completely disconnect from all of it.
Consequences. Someone just needs to punch her in the face already.
Until the laws re: online harassment actually exist, the only thing to do is not react and keep documenting, unfortunately. If she does something physically harmful, the case will be strong. Online harassment laws need to change!!
My husband did this to me and my ex when I left my husband, he went full blown fricking nuts no joke.. I feel for u I really do, it’ll die down eventually but u guys cannot give into it, and texts messages are ur own worst enemy if u guys have responded or reacted u kno.. keep all the texts pictures everything u can, but do NOT respond unless it’s about a pickup time or something involved with kids u kno..
You have no idea how bad I want to haha
I am so sorry to hear you are being subjected to this. It sounds like you and your partner are doing all you can - reporting to the police, trying for a r.o. Do they share a child together also? Wondering if there is anything that can be done via family court. When I had my ex harassing me/ex partner, I was able to present all of his online posts to the court, and he was told to stop. However, at the time, I was still looking on his social media. For my own sanity, I blocked him on every social media outlet and never looked back. This woman has some serious demons and issues to work on. Unfortunately, that is out of your control. All you can do is keep documenting, not reacting, and protecting your own mental wellness. I would put as much distance between yourself and this person as possible. Maybe she is getting some sick thrill from it all because she knows you and your partner see this. Block, disengage, move forward. If you have a therapist, lean into that support. We can only keep our side of the street clean. Best of luck!
Stop wasting energy on someone being mean to you on the internet. You're getting riled up (like they want you to). "Punching her in the face" is ridiculous. That's a good way to get into more trouble than you expected.
Throw it all away like garbage. It doesn't even matter.
I feel like u should block her not read anything she posts and don’t engage with her or her nasty thoughts other than that if she come around physically then get a restraining order try to record incidents that take place and report to the police
Solid advice
I'm not going to give any advice beyond; do you love the man, and are you prepared to tolerate for the long haul
