writes: I've just started dating a girl and a complete stranger to both of us has just started emailing my girlfriend telling her I'm a fake and that I'm not genuine, I'm really confused because I've never spoken to this person before and neither has my girlfriend. This girl then emailed me accusing me of having several girlfriends and calling me a slag, she even sent an email to my girlfriend that she had made and just changed the addresses on it so it looked like it was from me to break us up.Does anyone know why she's doing this to us when we don't even know her? And what should I do about it? My girlfriend knows she's lying but it's upsetting us both. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Reply to this Question Share |

Again, don't be afraid to have the police investigate. They have the power to get phone, internet records, and can find out the true identity of this person. Once her identity is revealed, don't confront her in person. If she is in school, take the information to her school administrators and let them know that they have someone who is engaging in cyberbullying. They will contact her parents, and if you think you could punnish her, unless she has totally un-concerned parents, they'll be the ones to really deal with it--taking away her phone, internet priveledges. It's also possible, that if she is older/out of school, you could have her arrested for cyberstalking.

what Honeypie said.
NOT a stranger and you should both BLOCK this person.
without an audience they will stop.

If you're in school, and she happens to be going to the same school, then if you talk about this to your administrator you can have the other person disciplined, possibly removed from the school. This is called cyberbullying, and you do NOT have to take it.
I know that you might not want the police to get involved and cause a scene, but take it from someone who's been there and done that, it's best to right away nip this in the bud before it escalates even further. This person needs to know there are very real consequences for this kind of behavior.

Invite them to tell you, or your girlfriend, to your face. Or, tell them that your girlfriend got the email that they wrote and that you both know they tried to send it as if it was from you, so you both know not to believe them, and that they are wasting their time.

The others are right, the person IS someone you know and again you will be shocked about who it turns out to be, likely to be a jealous ex or admirer.
The simplest action really is for you to both delete and block this person and most of all do not let it affect you, as that is what this person wants.

I doubt it's a stranger.
I would suggest you both block "that" person.

I've been through this myself. Emails/texts to me saying that my girlfriend was using me, cheating, not really gay etc etc.
It turned out to be my girlfriend's ex. All I can recommend is to ignore it, this 'stranger' will eventually get bored.

This can't be a stranger but rather someone that you both know and don't be surprised when it turns out to be one of your best friends who could either be interested in you or her and posing to be someone else.
Watch your friends and their friends very closely.
