    So already he's telling you you're not going to see it. He's dangling you on a piece of string. 

    Cut your losses.

    I ain’t clinging on to anything, I was just saying what he said 
    march he will be gone and reprieved to police and court befriend action but worn take action 

    I know most likely it would be better now then March but I will still take that 1% chance and see what he says in March

    For harrsment is it better to go through civil court or police?

    also I would love to go to police about harrsment, however won’t that make him want revenge, where’s if I block him he’s unlikely to want revenge

    Just block him and enjoy spending all that money on yourself! I'm really not getting this situation at all. He's the only one who has done anything wrong so he won't do anything against you. If anyone found out what he's being doing the threat of shame and embarrassment should be enough to keep him away.

    You keep saying about the police and other things but why does it even have to get to that stage? Block him and cut all contact. See what happens but I doubt he will actually do anything. I think you're more worried about losing him as a supposed "friend" or you would have stopped bothering with him a long time ago.

    I’m gona block him tommrow I can’t handle his harrsment anymore regardless of what I say he won’t stop

    police because of the harrsment, if he comes back,he’s not gona given in easily just because I block him I was his money source for years.

    some people will be on my side others will say you were dumb for believing him.

    also he said he’s gona be at work end of month for one month wonder if he will do anything then.

    don’t care about his friendship reason I didn’t stop is he had my money, I kept thinking I would get it back but now I know I won’t..
  • Phone your bank tell them that you have been subjected to financial and emotional abuse by a so call "friend" and ask them to block ALL future bank transfers to said "friend".
