Harrassment

My ex emails me ALL the time about, returning clothing items which he lists, contact and just rants of some kind. These emails are accusing, blaming, controlling and I’m totally sick of them.

They are composed by the OW and himself and are lengthy and ‘boring’. It amazes me 3.5 years down the line from our separation they still feel the need to try and bully me. I mean why wouldn’t they want to get on with their lives like I’m trying to!

So my question is what do I do as mentally it’s exhausting reading someone slag me off noon and night?

Do I report him to the police or shit dienmt email account and ask him to communicate via our handover book or text/ring in an emergency?

I should say that we have 2 children together and these emails are about the children!

Send him an email and tell him your sick of the ranting abusive emails he is sending to you, from now on he can only contact you in a respectful manner and when necessary ONLY if he sends anymore abusive emails you will ring the police for harassment.

Hope he gets the hint !!

Keep dealing with him via email so that you can keep a record. Call women's aid for advice or contact your local police station. This is harassment, you don't deserve it, I would also consider using a contact centre for supervised hand off of the kids.

Ignore the emails and do not respond. When you respond you fuel his fire.

My OH has a very bitter EW who constantly sends vitriolic ranting emails. My OH went on a SIPP course and was advised that you can’t control these people and what they write but you can control your reaction and own feelings.

In the last 2 weeks my OH has received at least 4 abusive texts and 3 abusive emails. He always takes the moral high ground and responds to child related questions (never ever responds to the digs or abuse).

They’ve been divorced almost 6 years. I doubt it will ever get better.
