Am I harassing the new girl friend?

09/18/08 09:09 AM

My STBX had taken up with my good friend just before I filed for divorce. The divorce was about abuse - verbal/emotional - and things got very scary right as I left (as per text book abuse goes). I "broke up" with her friendship and told her she was free to have my leftovers but I wanted no part of her life.

I had gotten a call from her. She told me she was "head over heals" for him and wanted to know just how abuse worked so she could be on the look out for it. So I sent her some objective articles thinking that words from my own mouth were subjective but reading a doctor's text would be more valid. I wished her peace.

Flash forward 3 months. They are still serious. I have moved on mentally, but not in a relationship. I receive text messages and emails and phone calls from my STBX every day. One day 12 harassing phone calls. Another 6 name-calling texts. He's broken my garage door. He's tried to gain entrance through the front door of my home by literally trying to push me over.

The texts had not stopped. My lawyer told me it is not good to bother a judge with such things, just to keep documenting.

After the 4th nasty text to me and it wasn't even 9 am one day, I texted him back and told him I would now be forwarding his nasty messages to me directly to his girl friend.

I did this a bunch of times (maybe 5) and also forwarded a particularly abhorrent email from him. So far, it's pretty much worked. Haven't had a nasty text in 5 days. But the last text from him said to stop harassing his girlfriend.

Knowing he plays dirty, should I worry? I've spoken to the gf and explained I don't want to bother her, but just as she used me as a tool to get her claws into my H, I was using her as a tool to get his claws outta me. She said she was sorry and she understood.
