My husband’s ex told him I cheated with my stepbrother, claiming our baby isn’t his. We eventually divorced. Years later, he returns and wants the baby, but he never expected the bad news.

With the intention of not attracting more attention than I already have, I’ll try to be even more vague with the details of this situation and of all the people involved. Maybe the word “stalker” is an exaggeration given what has happened so far, which I admit hasn’t been much. Two days after an old friend warned me that my ex-husband was trying to contact me, I received follow requests on all my social media accounts. Although he hasn’t sent me any messages yet because I haven’t accepted any requests, I fear it won’t be long before they start arriving. He’s even been viewing my LinkedIn profile, which I can see because the platform shows who visited your profile. It’s clear that he deliberately searched for me.

I mustered up the strength and talked to my husband, Grant, about everything I mentioned in my previous post. I told him the whole story: my relationship with Ezra, about Cassie, everything I endured from him and his family, and finally, his reaction to my pregnancy. Fortunately, the man I’m married to today is a thousand times better than my ex. He was understanding and gave me all his support as I recounted this never-ending story. When I finished, he was more concerned about finding a way to comfort me than about the fact that I had never told him this before.

Of course, just at that moment, the follow requests intensified. We talked about what to do and decided to block all his accounts on every platform where he found me, which was basically all the ones I have. He had been stalking every corner of my online life. Luckily, all my accounts are private. I thought blocking him would give me some peace of mind, but then the messages started coming. He created fake accounts to send me private messages on almost every platform. In them, he said he had made a mistake, that he wanted to see me and meet his son.

All the messages were different, but they ultimately said the same thing: he wasn’t going to stop contacting me until I let him see his son. He insisted that the child deserved to know his real father and that having a biological father was better than having a stepfather. He claimed that I couldn’t understand because, according to him, I had always thought that relationships with in-laws were the same as blood relations.

The more I ignored him, the longer his messages became, insisting that he had the right to see his son. He wrote that he would keep creating new accounts and that I couldn’t block him forever. I have no doubt that he will continue trying to contact me. I just hope that sending longer messages is the only way he escalates this situation. Grant has assured me that we are completely safe and that Ezra won’t do anything really dangerous, but I have a bad feeling about all of this.
