Love: Today, I found out the person who's been stalking and harassing...

Today, I found out the person who's been stalking and harassing me online was actually my now ex-boyfriend. He only confessed as I finally picked up the phone to report it to the police. He basically said he wanted me to turn to him for comfort and protection, so he could "feel like a man". FML

Today, I found out that the threatening and insulting messages I received from my boyfriend's "stalker ex" were actually sent by him. Why? Because he cheated and he didn't want to admit it. I'm dating a psycho. FML

Today, I discovered that the man I have been talking to on a dating site is actually my ex-boyfriend. He created a fake profile and made me fall for someone that doesn't exist. We got on better anonymously than we ever did in 3 years together. FML

Today, I found out someone, most likely my psycho ex, has been posing as me on local interest websites, trolling a load of people, and giving them my address so they can come fight me. I found this out when a gentleman showed up at my house wanting to beat me shitless. FML

Today, I got a stern talking-to from the police about threatening and harassing people. Who had called them? None other than my stalker, whom I'd just informed about the restraining order I was filing against him after finding him in my house. For the second time. FML

Today, I made my way to a bar for a first date with a guy I had been talking to online. It turned out he was actually my ex-boyfriend in disguise, trying to get revenge for dumping him. FML

Today, I found out that my violent ex has moved to my country for the sole purpose of tracking me down. I know this because my former boss called and told me she gave him my address. She loves the idea of us getting back together because, "You're such a cute couple!" FML

Today, I found out that the person who has been stalking me has also been stalking someone else. I got upset. It seems it took being stalked to make me feel good about myself. FML

Today, after three months of hooking up and talking about dating, the man I was supporting emotionally went back to his ex, who'd reduced the restraining order on him to a no abuse order so they could be together. He left me in his bed to go be with her. FML

Glad he's your ex. He's clearly an idiot.

I would tell him he's not a man but prison will make him into a b!tch.

If you don't ever go to him to comfort you, that can get inside of a guys head. I think what he did was a bad way of going on about it but not a reason to break up with him.

Well, not only is verbal harassment a form of abuse, trying to manipulate a person to depend upon you is a big condition of abusive relationships. For example, if he's already emotionally abusive and NOW she depends on him, he can escalate the abuse. How long until he has a bad day and smacks her around to "feel like a man"? Seeing as he already wants her to be a victim and has clear disrespect towards OP it's would've been just one bad day at work away. tl;dr: guy's a nutjob and I suggest the OP follow through with the police report.
