Literally don't even know where to start. I had broken up with the father of my two children. I had started seeing a guy (please note, I was not in an exclusive relationship with him) who seemed so lovely. Took me on trips, shopping sprees, out to dinners, cinema trips. Really spoilt me even though it did make me feel uncomfortable & often said no, yet he said it made him happy to do so. After a few months I had an unexpected bill that came up from a previous residence that I thought was paid off by my ex (kids dad) & was threatened with bailiffs unless paid. Being a now single mom of 2 I stupidly asked this guy to help me out. I took a loan for £1050 & made an arrangement to pay back £50 every month until payed back. After I had payed £200 without fail, he told me that as he now knew I wasn't with him for his money & that he could trust me that I didn't have to pay him back. I soon after decided to give my kids Dad another chance. I explained this to the guy & although he seemed annoyed, seemed to accept it. Within a week, he decided that I was no longer entitled to the money to keep & wanted the rest upfront. I told him I just couldn't do that but could continue with the agreed amounts. He said that wasn't good enough. I then blocked him from all communications. He downloaded some sort of app that changed his number so he could keep messaging me after I blocked each number. This continued for months until he said he would take me to court unless I spoke to him & readded him on facebook. I told him that as he said it was a gift and didn't have to pay it back that he wouldn't win a court case, but he said it wasn't about winning, it was about causing me stress (he knew I severely suffered with anxiety) & miss work. I agreed to talk to him & he cancelled the court application. After about six weeks or so after he then started suggesting picking me up from work & taking me out to dinner & I refused. He said if I didn't offer him more that he would come into my work & tell everyone 'what I was really like'. I said I was willing to be friends because he had helped me out & he said he wanted to talk everyday & know about my day so I thought I can do a bit of chit chat & that'd be enough. It wasn't & he said he wanted more & he said he could come to my work & he knew my bus route & I asked him to leave me alone again & he ended up reapplying to court, then telling me he had cancelled it but he hadnt & I was ordered to pay £650 back to him. After that was ordered he again said if I talked to him he would cancel it. He sent a photo of a confirmation that legal action had been put on hold & that he had cancelled it. Before registering to this site he has just said that he doesn't want to be friends & he never did & he will do everything in his power to make giving us another go happen. He said if I delete him there will be no hard feelings but I know for a fact that if I do he will start the court up again & it will be his word against mine that I said I'd pay but didnt & ignored court action even though he said hed cancelled it & I can't afford to pay it off in one go. He said actions speak louder than words & that if I don't delete him then I'm saying it's not impossible that we have a future even though I have told him we don't. This has been happening for a year & a half & as much as I want it over I just can'tafford to pay him back in one go & I dont trust him to let me just walk away. He comes into my store regularly without me knowing. He will message me & tell me what my hair was like that day. What i was doing. Where I was. The scariest thing is I don't even know he's there. How many times has he been outside my house? Watched me do a school run? Does he know when I'm in the house alone? Yesterday I said I couldn't talk as I was about to leave for work & he said no you're not you don't leave for another half an hour. I have no idea what I can do as I feel going to police will just be a dragged out ordeal he will use to hurt me & he will twist the truth & make me look like I was a money grabbing liar even though I have worked full time since I was 18. I just don't know what to do.
