I can't believe my life has been reduced to the script of a very soap opera.
My "friend" I will call her Sue. Has been a very nasty presence in my life for way too long. We met when she begged to help me with a community project and in the end against my better judgement I relented.
She is 60 years old but drinks vodka a litre at a time and she thrives on drama. I couldn't possibly put down here all the trouble she has stirred up while I have known her.
I tried to end our friendship a few years ago and she was ringing me I the early hours spewing bile into my answerphone and was telling terrible lies about me to anyone who would listen.
I was in a pa and ea relationship at the time and she was lying to my dp about me having affairs. Which could have got me a beating. I made friends with her to stop this because i just couldn't cope anymore.
I finished my relationship but for practical and financial reasons (and a degree of control on his part) we still live in the same home. I still have to account for my movements etc.
I recently couldn't cope with sue any longer, she is an active member of UKIP and she used the "n" word in my home. She knows I'm not racist. I saw red and threw her out. Well now the abuse has started again. The lies, the drunk enough phone calls until 5am. My son is in the middle of exams ffs! I have changed the landline number but it's such a ball ache and I did nothing wrong! She is messaging my ex dp on Facebook about me being a cheap shag, knowing it will incite him. (I haven't had a shag for years sadly, besides the point I know).
She is sending the same vile messages to my eldest son who is hundreds of miles away at uni. And to my stepdaughter who is coping with possibly life limiting illness. She is utterly deranged.
I have lost half a stone in a week. Haven't slept much since she started the calls. My ex has started to believe her lies and I'm now on egg shells.
What can I do? There is so much more to this that will out me but I haven't left out anything important, IE I haven't done anything to deserve this.
I feel like she is goading me to tell her husband about her own 8 year affair so she can "prove" to everyone how evil I am. Her husband wouldn't care btw.
Legal action is too expensive but how do I stop someone who is this determined to do me harm? She has always been obsessive with me rather than friendly iyswim. But with a controlling, stalker ex to manage as well I'm starting to think that they are right and there is something wrong with me.
I'm so sorry for the length of this post.
