How do I handle this?

I’ve been seeing someone for the last 2 months and everything’s been going really well. We’ve both agreed we can see a future with eachother.

Ive been through domestic abuse and he’s also experienced it with his ex. I fully understand the effects it can have on you and I know it takes a lot of support which I’m more than willing to give.

The only thing is is that he’s not blocked his ex and she’s hounding him by every way possible. I don’t understand why he’s not blocked her - they have no financial ties or children. It’s now beginning to affect us because it’s causing him anxiety.

i really want to be there for him but I don’t know how I can do that if he’s still allowing communication with her.

I don’t want us to break up but I have no idea how to approach this without sounding like I’m being unsupportive

Have you asked him why he won’t /can’t block her? If you can understand the why, you might be able to rationalise with him as to why he needs to block her.

If DV was involved in their relationship, he may well need some counselling to be able to move forward with this and cut her off.

Is she actually hounding him? Like have you seen or heard actual proof of this? Or something he is just telling you about?
