Ex in laws are ruining my life

Hi everyone!
This is my first thread/post on here so I don’t really know what to expect. But I’m desperate for some advice!Smile
So I’m 21 and a mom to a 3 year old little boy. Over 19 months ago my fiancé and little boy’s dad committed suicide in our first family home. It came as a total shock and nobody saw it coming. Our relationship wasn’t the best and it had been rocky for a while but we always stuck by each other and powered through the hard times. However, since his death his family and friends say have blamed me for his death saying I should have noticed a change in him, I wasn’t good enough for him, I didn’t treat him right.. so many different accusations have poured out over the last year and as a result we haven’t had any contact in 12 months.
Even though I haven’t seen or spoke to them they have continued to harass, bully and abuse me online. Anyway, 2 weeks ago I started seeing a guy. I’ve known him for years and used to work with him when I was younger and already my ex in laws have contracted him, doing anything in their power to ‘scare’ him off and I’m worried it’s working. I’m just worried that they’re going to control and try to ruin my life forever. I’m trying to rebuild mine and my sons life and every time I try to do something positive they interfere or put a stop to it. I just don’t know what to do about it anymore. Any advice would be helpful

Come off Facebook for a while. Deactivate your profile.

See a solicitor/lawyer and have a letter to cease contact bad all forms of harassment.

Their grieving doesn't entitle them to bully you.

Come off face book?

@I am I think you’re causing your own problems here by
A) not blocking them on EVERYTHING
And
B) living your life on social media where they can see it

That is bollocks and I really think you should withdraw your comments immediately. Victim blaming is so out of order and disgusting I don't know where to start . . ..

I think it's for the best for you to come off Facebook for a while too you really do not need to see all of this!

Keep a record of everything they do or say and keep going back to the police every time! I know it's frustrating and it will feel like you aren't getting anywhere but eventually they will take action!

As for the man you are seeing if he is a decent person he will judge you on you lot the lies spread by others you have to try and stop letting them into your head! If he believes the lies you have had a lucky escape!

I think you should inform the police again and look into moving.
