How To Outsmart Phone Hackers

Today I am thankful for YouTube.

This video is a Godsend.

I'm realizing why I wasn't really hassled when I had a CDMA phone. It was when I switched to GSM that Mike's family started really hassling me in public.

I guess I'm going to start looking at Sprint and Verizon for cell service now.

I also learned that the only person who can put spyware on a phone is someone with physical access to my phone and eight minutes or so to spare.

There is only one person who has that kind of access to my phone.

My phone still runs through the battery whether or not I use it. I barely get ten hours on a full charge. I have a new LG with 32gb of memory. I guess my huge memory bank is causing trouble for me.

The phone still runs hot, even if I don't use it. I have a temperature app. It gets over 100 degrees on a daily basis, even if I don't use the phone except to check the temperature.

Weird applications come up, even if I don't use the phone. I have to delete forty or so applications every day.

I'm terrified to accept credit cards or check emails from my clients due to the fears surrounding surveillance.

This is my third GSM phone in less than two years.

I do have a second phone. It's a CDMA flip phone. I'm using that now. I figure no one can hack that old phone. I carry both phones with me everyday.

I thought I'd share.

This video tells you how to figure out who put the spyware on your phone.

I'm going to see if I can find something on the phone before I have it put back to it's original factory reset.

*****

The lawyer got back to me. He gave me a discount and cut the cost of the retainer by 75%. I owe him a nice Yelp review.

I'm trying to talk to Michael to find out what he needs or what his expectations are.

It's like pulling teeth.

He says he doesn't have expectations but he doesn't anywhere else to go.

I think that means he expects to stay here.

I'm probably going to have to take him to court.

I'm trying to figure out what I've done wrong. What did I do to bring this situation on myself?

I feel like I'm going crazy trying to figure this out.

I guess there are things in this life that will never make sense.

I'm still processing this mess.

If I learn anything new, I'll let you know.

Love ya,

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing? I imagine they sing songs like this. I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call but wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again. I probably should document this somewhere. My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis. She is his cousin. I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law. She wanted me to plan interventions. This happened with a baby shower. It also happened with a wedding. The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car). I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

The Love Gods Have a Sense of Humor

Today I am thankful about the ever-changeable, ever-humorous universe. It is said that 'in life, the only constant is change.' Ah, this is a true tidbit, isn't it? I recently vowed NOT to date until Michael officially moves out of the house. I also vowed NOT to be close to him unless he signs up for FOO (Family of Origin) and Relationship counseling. I've been with the man nearly a quarter of a century, he's not going to go to therapy to have a relationship with me. He plays games with money, divorce agreements, custody arrangements, transportation, and all sorts of things to keep me stuck here. It's nothing money and a lawyer can't solve. ***** They say that dysfunctional people have three weapons that they use to keep people under their thumb. The acronym is FOG. Yes, they are FOG machines. What does FOG stand for? F ear O bligation -and- G uilt Yes, there is fear. Fear that he won't honor hi...

Personality Theory

Today I am thankful for personality theory. I can't say that I buy into it very much. People change over the course of their lives. Healthy people grow. Unhealthy people either stay static or regress. So what one tests today may change tomorrow. I do believe that personality theories (even ancient ones like astrology) create self-fulfilling prophecies. If people buy into it, it gives a lot of insight into their characters, needs, and behaviors. I've spent most of my adult life studying personality theories. From Eric Fromm's theory's about authoritian -vs- mature personalities and how authoritians fear power while mature people revel in it to Jung's introvert -vs- extrovert theory. A major one of interest to me is an offshoot of Jung, it is the MBTI type inventory. When I'm happy, I'm a textbook INFJ. When I'm pissed off and wanting to strangle my ex, I act like a ESTP. My ex is a ESTP a...
