I cant offer any help except to say I am thinking of you and hope you dont have an unwanted visitor. As others have said if he should arrive call the police and Good Luck.

Sorry that you are having to go through even more from the ex.

Bloody hell.

Bloody HELL.

What a knob.

I hope right now you are fast asleep in your very safe little house with your darling kids. Sending you lots of love XXXXXX

Please try and get some rest.

I'm agog at his shenanigans: at least now he's run out of people to convince that's he's a victim in all this. Thank goodness you spotted the truth in time to get rid. The only person who can help him now is himself.

I would let your solicitor know asap the current situation.

Well there has been no sign so far - so maybe it is just my anxiety starting to take over a little bit. I just keep trying to mind read what I would do in the same situation, but the reality is that I would never allow myself to be in that situation. I won't isolate myself like that from people, and I'm savvy enough to recognise when my own mental health is spiralling and I will do something about it. So I can't put myself in his shoes at all. Ah well.
I didn't sleep that well, but ok. I am getting towards end of term tired as it's half term next week - without anything much of a break because I'm knee deep in exam marking as well - which will go on until the beginning of July (and will be worth every penny )
I have spoken to lots of people today to make them aware of the situation. Neighbours, solicitor, kids schools, my family. I figure that the more people who know and are on the lookout for us then the better off we'll be. I'm reassured that both schools have said if he turns up there then they will call the police. I also hope the solicitor will be able to present a stronger argument at the next court hearing. My ex has no medical/drug treatment available - he needs to take a long, hard look at himself and start taking steps into CBT or something similar. I just don't think that he will.
I've brought work home tonight because I was a bit distracted during the day. Still have exam stuff to look at as well, so I should probably get on.
Thank you all, as always for your support and comfort. It really does mean a lot to me.

Very wise to let the schools, etc know the situation. You've done all you can for him and it is up to him to sort himself out now. Difficult to put the whole thing out of your mind. I know.

I'm not surprised you're feeling worn out. Try to relax and get some sleep. xxx

Just to say I'm thinking about you, and hoping this will help at the next Court day. (((hugs)))

Enjoy half term, even if you are working, at least you can be doing in it in your pjs or in the garden, not having to commute / do the school run for 9 days is priceless!!
