A bit of Background first, my ex and myself were friends with another couple. 2 years ago, Me and my DH split up and the friends took my side. (He was abusive) My ex accused me of having an affair with the male friend. I wasn’t. He has also told lies about me to other friends (unsure what… no one will speak to me)
My female friend has always had deep routed jealousy and insecurity issues. She understandably took the allegations quite difficultly but it sent her into a bit of a spiral.
She would track her partners phone, time him, for example if he went to walk to the dog and was longer than he said he’d be, she’d assume he was round seeing me.
I cut off contact with the pair of them because I didn’t want to cause any further issues.
Fast forward to this June, my friends split up. They both separately reached out to me and we started talking again.
It became clear that my female friend didn’t believe my side of the story and we cut off contact with each other again.
Me and the male friend ( Darren) carried on talking and met up occasionally.
Last month, he was round mine watching the football. ( it was the first and only time he’d been round- I’d recently moved to get away from abusive ex) She started pounding at the front door, barged her way into the house and started screaming at the two of us. I hadn’t told her where I’d moved to… turns out she’d purposely bumped into my mum and found out what village I lived in. She then drove around the village until she saw my car and has then been sitting in my street waiting to see if Darren came round.
Since then, I have spotted her or her daughters car in my street 4 times.
Last week, she was doing her stalking and she spotted Darren dropping me off at the end of the road. (We’d been out for a drink to talk about his recent job move) She drove up to me, curb crawled her car next to me, shouting abuse out the window. Drove off. Turned round and sped down the street towards me again. Slammed on her brakes and did another turn around and drove away.
She then drove to Darren’s house and physically assaulted him, forced her way into the house and ransacked the place looking for me (even though she’d just left me at my house 5 miles away).
She obviously had mental issues but I have no idea what to do from here.
I still care about what happens to her and she obviously needs help.
Im also worried that she’ll continue to stalk me and maybe next time, she’ll mow me down in her car rather than turn around.
Do I go to the police? I don’t want to make things worse for her but it needs to stop as it’s getting out of hand.
thanks for reading this far and any advice would be so welcome!
