To tell her or not

I split with my ex 5 years ago, during that time I have had an injunction against him, he has made false allegations about me to police, council and children services. We also had a rather drawn out court battle which he lost and had to pay me loads of money.
He also bought the house next door to me and his new girlfriend has moved in. She is the one that has actually paid me off following court.

I have found his profile on a hook up site with verifications of him meeting other people for sex.

I want to tell her, I think she should know, she has written some nasty things about me on sm and has encouraged some of this behaviour. I don't really blame her - he is very manipulative and lies a lot.

But she has bailed him out and supports him whilst his lies have pushed me to the brink of suicide and had a massive impact on me and my ds.

What would you do?

I agree with others but there is a small part of me that would want her to know. If you can do it anonymously with no come-back then why not? If there is a chance they know its you, leave well alone.

Drop the rope.

She won't believe you. He's triangulated you too deeply and too long, casting you as their joint enemy.

It'll be obvious it was you even if you do it anonymously.

No good can come of it. Potential bad can, and most likely will, come of it.

You have kids. You say they're settled. It's not worth risking more trouble starting and bringing even more negativity to the equation.

Seriously, drop the rope. For your kids sake if not yours.
