I have a sister who fell out with members of the family, one by one including me.
She sent other members of the family some abusive messages over the past year if not more, but nowhere near the level that I received from her.
She has sent me thousands of messages including threats and intimation. I change my number over two years ago. She went to email for a little bit and then fake Facebook profiles. Then there was other stuff too. Like she created an ad on a selling site with my details.
I changed my number but she got my new number earlier this year and it all started up again.
I was apprehensive about going to the police but enough was enough and I made that move during the summer time. The officer I spoke to was shocked reading my phone and said if I was to take the full legal route, it will come out in papers and it would be talk of the town. I agreed with him. He said more often than not, an informal warning is enough for many people to stop this kind of carry on and we agreed to go down that route.
It cooled off for a bit but unfortunately it didn't stop. Last week I got a new round of abusive messages from her threatening to get my boyfriend involved. I thought she wouldnt follow through but she did. My boyfriend showed me the messages he got on messagner from her. The object was to humiliate me, paint me in a bad light and sabotage things between us. Whatever has gone on in our family went on in our family. She had no right to drag him into things.
I feel sick. She's not backing off. She wants nothing more to do with our family but she won't move on with her decision.
She's someone who finds offence with everything where there is no offence meant and she creates all this drama. Like our mother had pictures of my niece up in the kitchen. My sister doesn't get on with the brother and doesn't know the niece and she offence to pictures of her niece up because there was no pictures of her up. Things like that. Battles in her own mind.
Anyways, I'm at my wits end here. The last things I want to do is to take the full legal route by making a formal statement and getting her arrested.
My money is tight with me so for now I won't be able to go down the route of obtaining a court order. Changing my number won't fix things either. Not now at this stage considering she will find other routes to get to me as in through my boyfriend or whatever.
I haven't responded to anything from her to date because there is so much anger and hostility from her and it will only just fuel her anger.
I'm nearly ready to blow though. I find it very stressful and I'm at a loss as to what to do.
