When your ex turns wrong....

Comments

I don't think that's overly smart of the ex to stalk you. Criminey, you could rouse up your posse of scary roller gals and...well, the mind boggles. Unfortunately this type of subconscious "mate guarding" causes a lot of problems. In your ex's case, he doubtless nursing wounded pride, and won't always be in the right mind. So sorry to hear of your ongoing troubles! Do you need to invest in an alarm system? Not the most cost-effective thing, I know, but might be worth it for added peace of mind.

Hm, stalking wouldn't work for me were I in a similar quandry. I helped teach my wife how use her .357...so she outguns my .380ACP...but I'm currently more accurate with mine ;-)... I don't remember if I told you this already, but a few years back I came home late from work and I was coming up the back steps when my wife abruptly opened the door and pointed her pistol at me. I then noticed her revolver cylinder was not in and calmly told her that if she was going to shoot me she ought to first snap the cylinder in place. Turns out some rapist was being chased by the police (10 blocks away, incidentally), and she wasn't sure if I was being followed or not. She did appreciate that I was cool under fire, so to speak, though.


Well fortunately I doubt I have to go through too much extra hoops. When he officially moved out in January, I immediately changed the locks on the house and my close neighbors do watch out for me. Also, I think he really only wanted the motorcycle. When he left he said he didn't want it but he since changed his mind. I'm sure the only way he could afford one was to steal the one his wife bought him. He won't be hanging out in the harley circles though - they all know me and never really liked him to begin with.

Overall, he's not too bright but it did creep me out to think he was likely stalking the house waiting for me to go. I'm usually pretty attentive to those things, so just reminds me to be more diligent. Karma is a bitch as they say, so hopefully he'll get his one day, in this life or the next.

Thanks for your thoughts! hope all is well with you!
