So I'm 6 months pregnant & unofficially engaged to the world's most amazing man. Unfortunately, he has the world's most irritating, annoying ex on the planet. She's been harassing me for awhile through text messages/myspace/voicemails. And I'll admit, for awhile I kind of instigated things with her. But I've quit all of that. But there's something that she said in one of her blogs on myspace that's still sort of bothering me... She says she thinks I deserve to be locked up in a mental hospital and she's waiting for me to have my son, then she's going to call a mental hospital to try to get me locked away. She says she apparently has 4 witnesses to my alleged "mental behavior". First of all: Do witnesses even have anything to do with being put in a mental hospital? Secondly: I'm pretty sure the only things she may have (if she did happen to save any of my texts/any of the myspace blogs I posted before they were deleted) will only prove that I was instigating things with her, not that I am "mental" Of course, I'm thinking (and truly hoping) that this whole "mental hospital" thing was only a scare tactic. But if she does go through with this, I'm ready to fight this in court. I have transcripts of all of the texts sent between us that I've typed up, screen caps of things from her myspace (not sure how much that would be worth), not to mention I've recorded her screaming raging voicemail onto my computer as well. In her text messages, she has repeatedly threatened to knock my jaw out of place, beat my ass, & even mentioned it in an almost premeditated way "how do u know i wont wait til ur in a parking lot at night after the baby". I've finally stopped being so childish & immature and I have blocked her in every form of communication that we previously had. I made my page on myspace private. And I also blocked her from texting or calling me on my phone. I've been considering the idea of going to the police about this to try to file a restraining order against her. I'm just not sure if what I have would be enough to do it. I'm also not sure about how the process of the whole thing works, either. What do you guys think? Should I go ahead & go through with the restraining order?
From what you've said I don't know if you'll be able to get a restraining order against her (I don't know a lot about this), but even if you can't, if you're worried you should probably make a report anyway so the police have a record of your concerns. Apart from that, there's nothing you can really do, so I say do it. You have yourself and your child and your partner to worry about.
Hehehe,, Well I think your mentally fine. You made paragraphs for your topic, very rare Really the only action they could take on your mental health is 302 bounced to 304 http://www.mces.org/302FAQs.html.. They would have to clearly make a call to police and have them evaluate the situation and then transfer you to a hospital. Theres really no other way. Men in white coats will not come get you like in cartoons.. I would file a restraining order on her, and your Boyfriend to file a PFA, after violating the order and being locked up a time or 2, she might get the message..
Something doesn't seem to add up about this story. YOUR claim isn't questionable, but something else is antagonizing this chick to be so threatening, especially given the intensity of her threats and the variables of communication she uses. That something else is most likely your current beau communicating with her in ways you are meant not to be privy to, such as alternate emails, friend gossip or some crazy shit like that. Situations like this 90% of the time always end up being a lot more than meets the eye. Saying, "Oh, she's just mental" seems a little too simplistic for me to accept. More importantly, one has to question how such a great guy has been associated with such a quote unquote "mental case".
She can't gather up a group of her friends and decide you're going to a mental insititution. Block her on myspace. See if there's a away to block her number on your phone. Call the police and get a restraining order. Then, focus on your baby and not this drama.
Find a pro bono lawyer, or pay one, but talk to one. The sooner, the quicker he can relieve your fears, which a six month pregnant woman doesn't need (and she knows it!)
