Restraining Order… save this nonsense, get a lawyer and get a restraining order… that is not mildly infuriating, its downright dangerous
This isn’t mildlyinfuriating, this is terrifying
The texts are terrifying, what’s mildly infuriating is that I have no idea what order to read them in because after the first image it’s just a rant so it could really go in any direction.
Right! I went back and forth trying to find the order. I think this person made the right decision dumping this person.
I’m coming back to do something fucker
I will make u so mad
400 missed calls
Rejection is hard, but there is no embarrassing way I’ve reacted to rejection in my life that makes me feel as gross and wrong as I feel reading that.
That’s not “mildly infuriating,” that’s straight-up scary. Call the cops.
This person needs psychiatric help. But OOP needs to call the police and I’d wager that has far more priority.
*Edited OP to OOP, since OP likely didn’t receive these messages themself.
Op please seek law enforcement. At least so they have something from YOU on file. That’s fucking scary behavior Op for real. Be safe!
The date stamps are from 2017 bro
Haha! Nice, I will never be in criminal justice.
This person is “mildly” mentally ill and you need to stay away from them and also call the police and get a restraining order. Holy shit!!!
That’s basically it. Romantic obsession can look a lot like mental illness, and definitely feels like it. Being charitable to the guy, he might look back on this and wonder what the hell was going on in his head.
I know I’ve been through a breakup that nearly killed me, and sheer white-knuckling restraint is the only thing that stopped me acting like this. It’s like a bereavement, but you also know the person is twenty minutes down the road.
Or he might have been like this through the whole relationship, who knows.
I’d send those screenshots to their mom
Maybe not even a bad idea. The police probably doesn’t do shit, but the mom (or dad) might smack some sense into him. At the very least they can keep an eye on him with other girls.
I’ve known a few parents who will straight up tell their kids date to run. 😂
This goes well beyond mildly.
If you don’t contact the authorities at least make sure lots of your loved ones know about this.
This is called “start a chain of paperwork with the police”. They of course won’t do much to help but it’s good for future restraining order proceedings.
Because you’re gonna have future restraining order proceedings.
Also gives the police a head start when investigating your murder
*if you are a white girl younger than 30
*and he’s not rich
Ok, that is a potential dangerous person you don’t want in your life. Be polite, calm and non provocative and get away from her. In the end she will switch her fixation from you.
The screenshots say it’s from 2017 but good on ya for being supportive
Hihi, didn’t catch the date 😁. I guess that if is he’s here to post this thing went well for him, he survived 😜!
I think you swapped the genders there. I was thinking the same at first, but the last panel makes me think that it’s a man harassing a woman.
Honestly I think they could be anything because the words are so mashed together it’s hard to make a conclusion …
Jesus fuck I am glad I got married before any of this fucking bullshit became possible!!!
I have an answering machine’s microcassette stashed in case a psycho comes back to haunt me. This shit DEFINITELY existed 30 years ago, just in a different form.
Maybe consider digitizing that cassette, or at least listening to it to make sure it’s still usable (assuming you can stomach it). Cassette mediums degrade over time and it’s quite possible that microcassete could be reaching the end of its usable life: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preservation_of_magnetic_audiotape
Until you find out you married someone like this without realizing it.
I think they’d know after this amount of time my dude.
Thing is, you don’t always know. This stuff doesn’t always come out until you’re leaving them.
Yeah, I was more thinking about myself.
Mildly?
This is going to be exhibit number 1 at his murder trial
Consider getting a restraining order
Honestly, considering the last two texts, a restraining order is only a piece of paper, she should get a gun too unless she can carry a police officer around with her.
Dude was crazy the whole time but “I’m going to come back and do something” is actually pretty serious imo, and the cops won’t act on it as a threat in my area because it is too unspecific, so I’m on my own.
Let’s see: Denial, anger, depression, bargaining. Everything, but acceptance.
