He'd come running back to me in a hot minute if I'd allow it, but I won't. We tried reconciliation a few times, and it never worked. Well, recently he tried to connect with me on Facebook. Not only did I reject him and block him, but this repulsed me so much that my hubby messaged him, "Do not try to contact my wife again. Thank you." You know what? Ex answered him back, "Do not threaten me or I'll call the police, and I'll contact (where you work) and get you in trouble." Well, we knew the police would just laugh, so we weren't worried about that. But hubby is a bus driver for the city. It would be easy for ex to pose as a disgruntled passenger, and make up stories claiming hubby did something. So we alerted management that my ex had made this threat, and told them his name. Now they know, if they get a passenger complaint and it has my ex's name on it, it's bogus.
You aren't being petty. What your ex is doing, is called gaslighting. He's trying to make you think that what went wrong between you was your fault, that you are the one who is defective.

yea i couldnt think of what i did as being petty. i even thought i was doing the right thing for everyone. i really beleive he has a warped perception of everything in his life. i hope your ex doesnt cause you anymore problems either its not fun. here's to freedom and peace of mind!
