    I am so upset. I just heard that a person whom I reported for sexual harassment has been telling everyone that we had an affair so he wasn't really harassing me.

    How sick can someone be? He's also saying I got pregnant by him??? How ridiculous is that! And that he didn't really harass me.

    I am so upset I can't stop crying.

    Oh Mellika, that's awful. I'm sure the truth will out though and the fact you reported it will make his story very unbelievable.

    Take care x

    It was someone I worked with. He got fired within a few days of me reporting it. That should tell you something - these things usually take a lot longer. What he did was REALLY bad and I had proof of it.

    The thing is, he's just told everyone via e-mail that the original accusation was false and that he'd really been sacked for having an affair with me. And from what I hear, quite a few people believe him.

    I know it shouldn't matter and I should put it all behind me. It's what I've been trying to do. I quit my job although I couldn't really afford to, because I just couldn't keep going there. And every time I think I've forgotten about it, he starts texting me. I called the phone company and they say they can't block his number.

    A few days ago he texted my husband (don't know how he got the number) and said all this to him. Luckily my husband and I have a very strong relationship and he believed me. But I shouldn't have to put up with it. I ended up having to call the police and they wanted to go to his house but I felt sorry for the guy and told them not to, and just warned him via text.

    And now he goes and does this!

    God I'm sorry for ranting but this is so upsetting!

    Keep a record of any contact he has with you just in case. If poeple are silly enough to believe him just ignore them and remember that your OH doesn't. x

    Thanks Haribo. I keep telling myself all this. But it's so hard to deal with.

    I can't imagine how hard it must be. Please keep a record of his contact and take care. xxx

    Managed to read Tuesday's thread just now but remember nothing....if we can swop children can we do the same with OH's...I just want to live alone for a while, I might even take him back then...he's handy for carrying suitcases and the like!

    Smoky...thinking of you and yours...keep going, you have been very strong through all of this and need to recuperate now, so take it easy, but don't give up...hugs
