how to deal with a crazy ex?
| Tue, 04-10-2007 - 1:35pm |
Help! After almost four years my husbands ex wife has decided to start sending him cards for all the hoildays! Confusing how much she misses him and loves him! In the last 2 years that we have been married he has had to change his cell phone number twice. They have no children together and the marriage ended in bad terms. He has always told me about the phone calls but chose to throw the First card away unopened. We ended up reading it! Big mistake! I went off the deep end and accused him of keeping in touch. We worked all this out but suprise another card arrived yesterday. I don't want to be jealous but this is eating me alive! How do I handle this without being a crazy woman?

Welcome to the board lamc07,
You have to remember that your husband can't control the actions of his ex. He has changed his cell number twice because of her so it is clear it doesn't want contact with her. You could contact the police about a restraining order. Just send the cards back to her unopened saying "return to sender" or just throw them away unopened. Hang up the phone as soon as you hear her voice.

I'm not sure the police are going to be able to help unless she has done something to break the law, like threaten you or damamge your property. Your husband might be able to get a restraining order, but again, it doesn't sound like (you haven't mentioned) that she has broken the law.
How old is his daughter? Is there any chance you can clue her in and/or ask her to stop giving out your husband's phone number?
Beyond telling the ex to bug off one final time (and hope that she actually listens this time), there's not much you can do but return the cards to sender and not answer the calls...
I'm really sorry you're in this situation. People are just crazy. At least your husband isn't getting sucked into the insanity.
Welcome to the board lamc07,
Mark the cards, RETURN TO SENDER - maybe she will get the point.
