My ex's cousin called me today. I going crazy,my ex ended the relationship in July after being very distant months prior to the end. My ex and I used to visit this cousin often. His cousin also used to e-mail me maybe once every 3 or 4 months, but after the break up he started emailing me and calling me more often. I contacted my ex and asked him to speak with his cousin and somehow let him know it was too soon for me keep in contact with him. This is one of my ex's closest cousin.

 

I don't know if he spoke to him or not, he said he did, but with out fail at first 2 weeks now 2 month don't go by without his cousin calling me. I even told his cousin that I was moving to another state. His cousin called me today, two months later to see if I moved. He said he won't let me move that far. I was confused and asked why? He said because I am a really nice and kind person and that's why he calls me. He even asked me why I didn't call him when I didn't move? I told him because he is connected to my ex and I need to be out of that world. He told me to take my time. WTF?

 

I can't change my telephone number it is connected to my business and I have this huge minute plan for cheap and the plan isn't offered anymore and no other carriers have anything that compares. I erased his number out of my phone so when he called I didn't know it was him. Actually I erased numbers for anyone connected to my ex, I destroyed everything connected to my ex, I just wanted to forget the hold 2 year ordeal. Now I have to save his cousin's number in my phone so that I know it's him. Which means I may scroll past the name and be reminded of my ex aaaaaggggghhhhh.

 

I really just want to forget my ex ever existed and I am really close to doing it until his very close cousin contacts me. Who would have thought and I know my ex is not putting him up to it because I am sure my ex wants to forget as much as I do because he did me so wrong.His cousin is also married I know the wife and kid so I don't think it's attraction. This makes it hard because if he is really just being a kind human being to someone he likes It would be super mean of me. He is a nice person, only if he was my ex's closest cousin.

 

What heck do I do?

If you live in the US or Canada you can call your phone service provider and have them block the cousin's number. That number will never be allowed to ring through to you. There are different messaging options that can be applied.

 

Just call and tell them you're getting harassing phone calls and you want to know what your options are.

 

Good luck!

Thank you, I thought posting here would be useless, well because this is one of those things where you don't know unless you are forced to go through it. But I figured I could vent.

 

I didn't know the phone company can block the number. This is my cell phone, but I am definitely going to give them a call.

 

I asked a couple of people how they would handle the situation. Neither knew each other but each one said the same thing almost word for word, which was it's a touchy situation. Then said they don't know.

 

My ex's cousin is a nice guy, but I have to be selfish when it come to healing and moving on, my ex taught me that, ironic huh. He is just way too close to my ex so it’s not like I can go to any events he have or he mine and we have nothing to talk about except how are you?

 

I also don't want him to tell my ex anything that is going on with me. My ex chose not to be with me so he shouldn't know anything about my life and I know curiosity will creep in.

 

Thanks again for the info (I am venting again)
