July 19, 2007 2:05am CST
after almost 4 years or marriage, i never really thought that my hubby's X-girlfriend is still obsessed with him. she knows the "FIGHTING EVENTS" of our relationship and she's waiting for us to really part ways so she could say.."SERVES YOU RIGHT!" I don't know how she got my email address but she sends me hate mails. I've never met her, never even talked to her but she hates me so much. She's really getting on my last nerve but i just ignore her coz i think that's the best thing to do. it drives her crazy seeing our sweet picture on friendster.. can't blame her though.It kills her that I have given my husband the chance to be a good father inspite of what he has done in the past. But i do believe in second chances. God knows how much i wanted to reply to those emails but I have nothing to explain to her. I HAVE NO PLANS OF STOPPING HER TIL SHE GETS TIRED.. need help here

i suggest you talk to your husband about the matter... looks like he was still having a communication with his ex that's why she knew when you two are fighting. and for your husband, why does he have to open it up to her? i mean, shouldn't he just keep it to both of you when you are fighting? i think that problems with relationships should be private and not to be talked about with other people. easy to say but hard to do in my part if that would also happen to me, because i cannot promise that i'll not reply back to her messages because i'm a hot tempered person lol.. but in your case, i guess your decision is right, that you just ignore her because if you replied back and talked trash, you'll just ignite fire. my advice to you is if you knew that the emails is from her, you just erase it coz as i can see, she was only verbally abusing you like talking trash because she was bitter and she still can't believe that you are the woman whom his exbf married. so you go girl! you should be proud of yourself that you are the woman he choses to be with. she was only sending you hate mails coz that is the only way she can have her revenge. if you don't read emails from her, you'll make her tired that you ignore her and at the same time you prevent yourself to be hurt by her messages. hope my advice works =)

my hubby was really surprised to know that his X is communicating with one of his family members. he got really mad and he wanted to reply on her emails but i just said ignore her. that's what we are doing right now. it seems to be working. and you know what? we are actually both laughing at her hate mails coz the construction of her sentences are so elementary.. at list we have something to laugh about.

Do not reply to those emails! You are doing right by not doing that. If you were to do that it would just keep her going. I think you are dealing with a psycho that is for sure. I guess that is why she is an ex-girlfriend. However, I would make hard copies of those emails and keep them filed. Just in case it does escalate and she goes further. you never know with people like that. They could be dangerous. In any event, you want to make sure you have your ducks in a row if you have to go to the next level and report her to the authorities. People do deserve second chances and I am glad to know that you are mature enough to realize that and be able to do it. Take care and good luck!

It is unfortunate that psycho's can have children too. I feel sorry for her child if she has to deal with that. You are very mature and I am sure you will handle the situation properly as you are now.

thank you so much for your response. i just hope she's not a psycho coz she has one child. i understand her situation right now but sometimes she crosses my boundaries. my hubby wasn't really proud of what he did in the past and i can't really blame her if she hates me that much. if that's what makes her feel better though.. she can just email me all she wants.

he knows about this issue. we never really fought about it. all he can say is that, let her show the world why nobody can stand her. i have nothing against her, but sometimes my human instinct sets in. now i'm starting to understand why some people act that way. thank you for your response.

Hi, I think it is better to go for a counseling with your hubby. Inference of another in your family that too an ex-girl friend too dangerous. So use some brainy games to tackle her. Like sending mails from false e-mails to her and your hubby. Like showing her relationshios with another person as as to just make your hubby think over it. Ask some better person or a good counseler, better go to the counseler along first. Rest we will wait and see. God is always with you. Shamrack.

You are right to just ignore her but I was wondering, Does she have childern with him? She is having trouble letting go of him and I was wondering if they are still connected in some way. If their are childern involved then it isn't so simple. His childern have the right to be in his life and he has a right to those childern no matter what. Everyone should put their differences aside for the sake of the childern. Vicki

yes they have one kid. we were supposed to ask her before if she would want child support but she doesn't wanna communicate. she doesn't even want my hubby to see the child even in pictures. but we understand her. this isn't about me or her or my hubby tho.. it's about the kid. we are not forcing her to show us a pic.. what's important is the well being of the child. someone told us that they are both struggling financially. my hubby and i talked about it but my hubby said she would get angry if we try to communicate with her.. i tried to search her thou thru friendster and my hubby was right, the reaction was far different from what i thought..
