Me and my ex split up a while ago, must be around 6 months now.

It wasn't the best of break ups. But it's what he wanted and I accepted and I've moved on.

Me and my ex do however have quite a lot of mutual friends. I received a message from one saying "is it true then about X??"

I was confused, so I looked at my exs facebook (we are no longer friends on there but his page isn't private)

And he has put a status saying that someone has made a fake profile and is adding all my friends please block and report this person as it is shine

And the comments that follow make me feel sick. All calling me crazy and saying "you picked a good one there X" and talks about getting the police involved!

Now I have seen the fake profile that did this. I know my ex didn't make it and I sure as hell didn't.

But no matter what I say he still believes it was me.

I don't care what my exs thinks, but the fact we have so many friends in common. I just feel humiliated.

The people calling you crazy and believing this crap are not your friends.

Ignore it, rise above it and move on. Don't try to reason with an Ex over something like this.

If you feel you really cant ignore it post....Yes please do involve the police, they will be able to tell from the IP address that it hasn't been done by myself. Then maybe I can speak to them about slander

Personally I would ignore

  1. Take note of people who are not actually your friends, then promptly delte them from both facebook and your life.

  2. I assume you're not on his friends list, so get someone you know (not one of the above wankers) who is to post something like the following

"Shine has heard this accusation, and is both confused and upset by it and the responses of people she thought were her friends. These things are very easy for the police to trace, so she advises you to report to the police. If you don't want to, but still continue with these accusations, she'll file the police report on your behalf and they can then investigate who this really is"

I agree with Nikent. However don't tell anyone that you know what his status says because his fb isn't private. Most people don't realise they haven't locked them and you can only know it isn't by looking and therefore leaving yourself open to 'stalking' accusations.
I would reply back to your friend, saying you don't know what they're going on about.

If you've already told them it wasn't you, then a good friend would stick up for you and politely tell your ex that while you've gone your separate ways, they are still friends with the both of you and they'd rather he didn't slag you off in this way so publicly with no proof.

Ugh, poor you. There's nothing worse than being accused of doing something extraorinary when you're innocent, and having people believe you're nutty Sad

but ignore it - block him and as many of these 'friends' that 1. have betrayed you and 2. you can afford to lose (Wink) and move on. The thing with FB bullshit is... if you don't look at FB it mostly goes away...

omg my typing Shock

okaynowitstheseason · 29/12/2012 16:22

Taking mimi's point into account, ask your friend to add something like "i have asked shine directly if she did this" in front of the post I advised you to make, so it's clear you were informed of it by someone else.

I know my ex didn't make it

How do you know your ex didn't make it?

report this person as it is shine

How does he know this?

Sounds like he wants attention.
