I’m breaking my silence today…I met a man on Tinder almost a year ago. I told him from the start that I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship. However, I didn’t mind talking and going out with him. I just wanted to get to know him and take my time with things. We went on two dates and talked for a little over a month. Slowly he started showing his true side. He would complain everytime I told him Im going to spend time with any of my friends. He acted jealous of me. He would ask me how do I have so many friends and why do I need to go anywhere if I have him and I should be spending time with him. All he ever wanted to do was lay down and watch movies. Him and I had absolutely nothing in common. He picked fights with me, accusing me of things and he would mentally and emotionally abuse me. He tried to make me feel worthless and unlikeable so that I would only go to him and none of my friends. He put me down in many ways even by body shaming me. Another red flag was when he was begging to meet my kids only on the second day of talking to him. It felt so strange being pressured from a stranger asking me if they could meet my teenage daughter and my two little boys when I barely knew him. I knew I had to break up with him because it was a toxic relationship. When I broke up with him and asked him to not contact me in any way, I started having alot of issues going on. So the main thing he’s doing is standing in the way of me and my lover. I want to be with someone who Im in love with and he’s in love with me however my ex is part of a gang and he sent a gang member to threaten my lover. I never knew my ex is part of a gang. If I had known that I wouldn’t have ever talked to him. My lover is afraid to speak up on the truth but I’m tired of living in fear so thats why I’m speaking up. My ex hacked my cellphone and he’s been sending his gang members after me ever since I broke up with him. They would show up at my house, when Im at the park with my kids, on the highway even when I’m giving my friend a ride home from work. They would take photos/videos of my kids and I inside of our vehicle or write notes about my whereabouts then leave. I knew they were targeting me and my kids because their flash was on and facing us. I hired a private investigator to locate my ex so that I could get him serve with a peace order but he’s been hiding for 3 months to avoid the peace order. Since my cellphone and my kids cellphones are all hacked he’s able to track all of our whereabouts, watch every move we make and know everything thats going on in our lives. Its really disgusting that he’s watching my 16 year old daughter and my two sons use the restroom and get undressed. I’ve tried proving this to the police but they will not look into anything digital. They don’t believe the situation Im in. This gang targeted my friends and now they are afraid to soeak to me or even see me. My friends and I use to talk everyday and even hangout now they either ignore me or make excuses. My ex has taken everything away from me all because I don’t want to be with him. This gang he’s associated with hacks bank accounts. I’ve noticed the exact day and time I made a withdrawal for $400 from my own bank account, my sister and my mothers joint bank account was hacked by $4,000. That’s definitely not a coincidence. So since my friends are afraid to speak up on the situation, they drop little hints on social media for me to tell me whats going on. I learned from them that my ex is a gang member known for wearing red and blue. They want money or they want to harm my son and myself. Due to my cellphone being hacked, they were able to hack me in every way possible. My vehicle is hacked due to the Bluetooth. I know my vehicle is hacked because my back wiler blades turn on on its own and the music will say its paused on the screen but really its being played. My ADT alarm system is hacked because ever since I broke up with him we have been having issues with it. The chime that lets us know the door is open and closed does not sound anymore, the alarm goes off randomly for no reason and its unable to be set. Ive called technicians many times to fix it and they can not find out what’s causing it to act up. My wifi is hacked in my house which never used to give trouble before. We have to continuously unplug and plug it back in. The tv firesticks have the viruses or malware he used because when we use them it will show under “suggested” McDonalds videos on YouTube which my sons father works at McDonalds. Our cellphones, ipads and laptops are hacked and we know this because the volume turns up on its own, the microphone turns on on its own, the battery drains fast, he sends people to threaten me so how does he know where I am on the exact day and time. Also I get texts from phone numbers that I don’t know and my phone scrolls on its own as if it were being controlled by someone else. After waiting a whole year for my ex to move on and find someone else, Im just tired of waiting to be with the man I love. I just want to be happy and start my life with the man I’m in love with without my ex destroying our lives. I have alot of screenshots and messages to prove that my ex is dangerous, im hacked and he wants to cause us harm however the police isnt doing anything to help the situation. So this is why I’m standing up for myself even if it means standing alone.
