Ex-husband's Antics Remind Me of His Stalking Days

Today I am thankful for eagle-eye neighbors.

It seems like everyone is home now that COVID19 is in town.  The kids are doing online classes and the nosy neighbors see everything.

I work in healthcare so I get to work long hours.  On the bright side, I have face masks.

I'm working a lot.

Enter visitation.

I get a call at work shortly after 4:00pm stating that my ex husband is sitting on my porch pouting.

I'm unable to see his expression through the camera but I finish with my patient and call home.

It appears that he showed up for his visit an hour early without warning.  The kids were doing their online class and unready to start the visit.

This concerns me - His bizzare behavior seems to be amping up.

Sometime in the past month, he hacked one of my store accounts and overrode my phone number with his phone number AND a phone number that we disconnected eight years ago.

I remedied this by getting a new account.

He sent me a snarky message last week wanting to switch his visitation times as he assumed the kids were not in school due to the Coronavirus scare.  I told him that they do indeed have classes and that they were studying at the time he wanted to visit with them.  The eldest has a class that ends at 5:00pm three times a week.

Today, I received a message from a neighbor stating that my ex-husband was hanging out on my porch an hour before his visitation was to begin.

He never contacted me.  A neighbor did.

Now, I'm getting scared.

I wonder what's going on?

I'd ask him -but- I really don't want to hear that I'm a bleepity, bleep lousy liar who made up stories of his family's harassment and stalking.

I'm terrified of him.

I'm terrified of his family.

I've learned it's best just to avoid talking to them.

If I have any advice to share it is that if you want money, favors, a home or anything from your ex, be nice.

If you attack her continuously, she'll stop helping you.

NEVER attack her in front of a family law judge.  That's a sure fire way to piss off the person who may just help you skate out of paying your arrearages.  The judge changed the order to force him to pay every dime.

I wasn't even asking for that.

Be nice.  You'll get more that way.

Love ya,

S.

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....

Venus Meditations

  Today I am thankful for my new realization.  In my world, Friday is the day of love (reminds of The Cure - lol).  It's true.  Friday is the day of Venus.  Exhausted as I was after work, I went to my altar and lit a candle asking that my friend find whatever his life is lacking. Then I went upstairs and did my Friday night ritual to Aphrodite.  I lit a candle asking that I gain confidence in my ability to love.  I also ask that I recognize true love.  I was too exhausted to linger so I tried to fall asleep.  Have you been too tired to sleep?  It's horrible.  Your mind goes round and round -  you might recall things that happened recently (like the doctor telling me to be careful because I haven't hit menopause yet and I say, "not worried about it" while thinking that it's a good time to be in a sexual drought - hooray for me),  or things going on at work  (that I can hypnotize little cranky babies to sleep without sa...

Welcome to the Club, Zuckerberg (also a warning)

Today I am thankful for realizing that I am not alone.   There is a frustrating feeling that one gets when trying to educate lawmakers about the reality of the world in which we live. I saw this feeling expressed by Mark Zuckerberg during that charade of a Congressional hearing he took part in this week. Zuckerberg looks a mixture of angry and frustrated.  I know that face.  That's the face where I am stifling laughter so hard that it looks like I'm going to cry. That's my political face.  My background is in social science and psychology.  Imagine how irritating it is trying to explain that city policy is based on the concept of a traditional nuclear family (mom, dad, kids - people tied together by blood or legal policy).  As such, there are laws on the books that break up other types of families (more complex family systems of economic cooperation).  Trying to explain that there are  people who share economic resources without bloo...
