Dealing with a Difficult EX

I can tell you from experience that a stalker does not heed warnings.

I was stalked for months by an ex-girlfriend. I blocked her calls, she found a payphone and called. She wrote me letters. She called my friends and asked them about me and asked them to check up on me. She went by the house.

I called her parents and told them what was happening. They tried to get her to stop, but she wouldn't. We did everything in our power. I called the police. The police talked to her three times but couldn't get her to stop. We were on the verge of having her arrested, but I just didn't have the heart to see her arrested and go to court for it, even though the likelihood was that she would go through the court process with a mere slap on the wrist anyways. Likely it would be a "Don't do it again.. You can go now".

Harrassment is an extremely difficult thing to prove and make stick in a Court of Law unless they are repeat offenders, and a couple of emails don't cut it unfortunately. Going to your pastor probably won't solve it either. If anything it will exacerbate it.
