writes:I was a prize idiot, and cheated on my wife with an ex. It meant nothing, I've felt awful ever since, and since I told my wife about it, fortunately she appears to be giving us a chance to work it out.However, the ex is a bit of a nutter (has made several recent suicide attempts etc), and has made several threats to me over the phone, including e-mailing the "gory details" to my wife to "ease the guilt she's feeling" for being the one that I cheated with! My wife doesn't know about these threats yet, and she's already stated that she doesn't want to know any more about it. I just want us to be left in peace to work things out - can I get an injunction or something to stop her from contacting my wife and me, and if so how do I go about it?

 The easiest way to go about this is either to change your phone number or call the operator and have her number blocked. Regarding her emailing your wife, she can also block her emails from coming through, either that or change her email address. Once lawyers and courts get involved it can turn nasty, not to mention expensive. I would try what I suggested first and see if it stops.

This is the thing - I don't have the proof of harassment, but she has threatened verbally to send all sorts of things to my wife. She told me that she has edited transcripts of online chats we had, twisting them to make me look guiltier and her less guilty with regard to the initiation of the whole thing. Again, I have no proof, but the last thing I want is a whole load of rubbish landing in my wife's inbox. I don't know if my wife would believe any of it or not, but I can't see it being helpful to the reconciliation of our marriage. This other woman is a complete nut-job and I can't call whether she's going to crawl back under her rock and leave us alone, or if she's going to get even more spiteful. Is there nothing I can do to stop her now, before she potentially throws another spanner in the works??

 The best thing to do is keep a diary of events. Try and tape these phone calls by using a dictaphone. Print out these emails and keep them safe. When the ex calls play it cool on the phone and let her say what she has got to say. Keep a diary of events so you can provide evidence to the Police. You then have more chance of an injunction being enforced. Hope this helps. Good Luck
