Harassment

863

It’s been two weeks since I left him, after nine months together.

Since that day, he hasn’t left me a moment of peace. He sends me dozens of messages every day.

He goes from insulting me to telling me that I’m the love of his life.

This morning, he sent me some voice notes. His voice sounded different. Threatening. He said that he was going to hurt himself, that it would be my fault, that I would regret leaving him. I’m so scared. I don’t know if he’s being serious, but I feel guilty and afraid, even though I know I didn’t do anything wrong.

The other night, I thought I heard the sound of his car slowing down on the street. Right in front of my house. Since then, I’ve been afraid to go out alone.

What should I do?

  • I contact a women’s shelter or a support worker who works with victims of intimate partner violence.

  • I call the police and file a report for criminal harassment.

  • I block him everywhere and try not to reply anymore.
