Accidently ccontacted an ex' - now he won't leave me alone

Tagged as: Social Media, The ex-factor<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (20 August 2016) 3 Answers - (Newest, 20 August 2016)
A female United States age 30-35, *nonem writes:

I was bored upon a day, and this boredom spilled over to the next few days. So I checked my contact list on watsapp and began messaging friends I don't talk to anymore, then I messaged one of my ex boyfriends(one who disrespected me and still owes me money). We brokeup 4 years ago and he was still on my neck for 3 years.

When I realised my mistake, I apologized for contacting him and asked for a cease contact which he refused. Should I continue to ignore him?

Before you judge me, let me say this. I have a boyfriend who I can't stand and I don't go out much or date online as it has never worked out for me. I was desperate and it drove me to madness. I am still bored but I won't disrespect myself again. How do I cut him off? I feel irritated about contacting someone that was toxic in my life? How do I respectfully tell him to stop calling and texting me because he refuses to stop.

Anonymous 123 agony auntWhy is this ex still in your contact list? Block him immediately and stop taking his calls and answering his messages. Tell him that if he doesn't stop harassing you then you'll inform the police. I think that should do it

CindyCares agony aunt Call me crazy but I always say that half of the mischiefs people get themselves into, could be avoided if they just would READ. Read books, good , entertaining, riveting books. :)

Pick up " Anna Karenina "- it's absolutely gripping and it's about 1000 pages, it will give you several days of non-boredom and you won't even think of fiddling with apps and social media ,and going to stir up hornet nests.

Or, Ok, don't read, but- you got the concept, don't let yourself be bored. There 's thousands of interesting things that a young woman can do to kill time, how come so many of our posters will only consider, as a source of entertainment, chasing guys (... that they don't even like that much, too ) ??

Anyway- the solution to your dilemma is simple. Block him. Just block him. Forget about " asking respectfully ", you did that and it did not work. Just block him already ! You have already apologized for contacting him, so now you don't owe him anything, not even courtesy.

Honeypie agony aunt"Before you judge me, let me say this. I have a boyfriend who I can't stand and I don't go out much "

SO break up with this BF you can't stand!

And BLOCK the ex on whatsapp. It's not like you need HIS permission to block him or not - and after 4 years and he hasn't paid you money he borrowed you need to accept that you will NEVER see that money. And thus, no need to keep him around in your contacts.

All these excuses as to why you did it? POINTLESS, girl. Just own up.. you contacted him and then regretted it. END if story, no need for elaborate "drove me to madness" drama-llama excuses. Just BLOCK him.
