Rasa, that really sucks. I’m sorry this has happened to you - a very sorry woo! ☹ ---

I went through this exact thing with a friend of mine, only in this case, someone was hacking into his email account and editing my messages to him to look incriminating before passing them on to his girlfriend. She flew off the handle at the time, but he explained the situation and there was no lasting damage. He was also able to track the originating IP address and figured out who it was, which was extremely gratifying. In the meantime, he switched email providers and it hasn’t happened again. It made me so angry and sick, especially on his behalf. Sorry you’re putting up with similar shit. ---

Thanks, **Abe**. Good to know I can still be funny when I’m all sorts of PO’d. But seriously. If I was going to stalk someone and send the text to their SO, I’d try to maybe use a capital letter here or there. This sounds like a similar situation, **Beadalin**. The text that they’re sending **virtee** is mostly made-up shit, interspersed with real conversations/emails I’ve had with friends. Stuff tailor-made to make him go “Huh?” And I guess he’s supposed to wake up and smell the coffee and leave me because this twisted fuck can “do things and sees everything”. Pfft. ---

When stuff like this happens to me, I just think to myself how nice it is that Karma still operates online. You get what you give. I hope your next stalker can type with two hands, at least. 🙂 ---

Do either of you teach? Because this sounds like the pre-adolescent rantings of a seventh grade crush. _shudder_ Gah, what an annoyance, Rasa. Hope there’s an easy, public way to humiliate this twitbitch. ---

Well, so far it looks like it’s stopped. Haven’t gotten any emails since this OP. And guess what, fucko? Your plan has been foiled. Sorry to tell you that **virtee** and I will probably live happily ever after. And yup, what goes around, comes around, indeed. ---
