Ok so I used to date this really controlling guy. The first time we met, he was with someone else and got my number through her. They lasted for 2 months and during that time I've only talked to him for 30 minutes through those months. Then I went off for the summer hols, came back and he kept wanting to meet me. We did meet but I didn't know it was supposed to be a date...then on the second day he told me he really likes me etc although I told him I'm still not over my ex. THen he just came to study, watch tv and hung out at my place everyday and i mean every day. I stayed with him just because I felt pity for him that he seems to like me so much and I was still lonely cuz of my ex. Then, they met one day and he insulted my ex really badly while he didn't do anything wrong. I asked for a break, then, when the break ended, he kept calling me, asking to see me. I told him that I dont want a relationship anymore, just friendship. He told me, "I'm only friends with beautiful girls because then maybe something will happen. I cannot be friends with girls cuz then I'd want something with them. I don't see what I did wrong". I told him that he has always been trying to change me, the way I dress, doesn't like it if I hang out with my guy OR girl friends, gets jealous of every guy/girl friends I hang out with, is obsessed with the feminine body. He still denies everything and tells me that it's all my ex's fault. Then at one point, about a month after, he sent me an email, asking to be friends again and that he now has a gf etc etc and doesn't understand why I want to break up with him. So I sent him an email, giving the same reasons as before, and told him to stop bringing up my ex as an excuse to complain etc... then he wrote me a really nasty email, saying that i'm wasting my life studying what I'm studying, calls me a b****, says that his friend thinks that I'm a stupid girl for missing my ex etc and sent me 3-4 nasty sms on the same day. I simply replied saying please stop bothering me. He wrote back again saying that I have no friend, that I'm stupid and when would I stop bothering him? I once saw him again in a student building while visiting a friend but the guy just slams the door. After all this, all my anger is bottled up so much that... I started using his e-mail to subscribe to random newsletters....EVERYWHERE on the net that I can find, on gay dating sites (no offense to gay people, I just want to get back at this guy), horoscopes and lots more spams... What do you think about this? I think he deserves it because I hate men who just like women's bodies and love to use them and nothing else. If you agree with me, anymore ideas of how to prank him? If no, why?

I say NO! If you do you are lowering yourself to his standards and giving him something to tell everyone to prove he was right about you. He sounds like a sad little man and as such you are better off without him. Put him down to experience and move on. I know it seems a good idea at the moment and you probably have people encouraging it but I can't help feeling that it won't end at that. If you prank him he will probably feel the need to do something back. Harrasing phone calls, or texts. Perhaps even to come and see you in person. I really do advise you to leave it well alone. Good luck and I hope everything turns out good.
