    Thank you. I took him to court last summer, and my lawyer got him to agree to just leave me alone until I graduate uni and could leave. But this dude wouldn’t, every time I walked outside he did everything he could to make me go back in. He was actually stalking me at school too, I’d walk out of a building and see him leaning on my car. So I was checking it for damage and trackers daily. There’s actual damage to my house now, but it’s not like I can go out there and fix it…

    The cops have been less than helpful, saying “that’s on public property” or “well, we can’t really tell what his intentions are, have you talked to a therapist?”. Finally last month I got one to admit to me that they aren’t interested in charging him with anything, including violating the restraining order. So, I don’t really have a choice, there is no protection for me here

      Holy fuck. This is psycho behavior and fuck the goddamn police for refusing to do their fucking jobs. As far as I’m concerned that makes them complicit with whatever this psycho decides to do. This is the exact thing restraining orders are for! I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this and please stay safe any way you can. 🤍
