    He doesn't give a shit about "fair" just about his own agenda and how you can help - whether you like that or not. Tell him no, and if he violates that, inform the police.

    They will tell him no in such a way, that any inkling of sense will stop him.

    OH has said as much, he says that he is willing to tell him not to call again but I havent let him as yet...........maybe I will after his call tonight has upset me so much.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    IMHO that would be a good idea.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
  • O Lou that's awful. xxx

    Hey Lou, thats not good eh. Doing all the above is easier said then done I suppose as you have to work with him and as you say you may feel you will become one of his 'targets'. All you can do is be honest with him, tell him politely how it is, to stop phoning you at home and if he really needs to speak to you about it he can do at work. If you haven't got a big red target or bullseye on your head he won't be able to hit you. Your own house is in order so to speak, so any actions you think he may take if he turns on you will prove to be immaterial as you're all squared away.

    You could go to the headmaster too if you feel you cannot approach him.

    Good luck, but you shouldn't be in tears. x
