Have you ever gotten a restraining order against someone before?

[LostandFound__x]

What is my life IF IT’S NOT DRAMA?

And for heavens sake - cross my heart and hope to die - I keep to myself. I go to work, gym, and SOMETIMES go out with my 2 friends.

And somehow I gotten myself into a predicament because I am receiving handwritten letters to my HOME from a girl I used to know who literally says she hates me, that I’m fat and ugly and that she will make sure I die.

The past week has been a whirlwind of anxiety for me. But I contacted the police right away and I’m in the process of getting a restraining order.

I genuinely feel so distressed. Has anyone been through something similar?

Hey guys thanks for your comments. The police are taking care of it now I think it will scare her away for good.

“she will make sure I die.” Alright that is a direct explicit threat of violence. That’s illegal in the UK and most western countries. And yes that absolutely warrants getting a restraining order. You got hard evidence with that hand written letter too.

Also her so called insults about you being “fat and ugly” aren’t even remotely true. If you are the same woman in that profile pic then you are very attractive and this other girl is completely 100% deranged and this is (dangerous) jealousy.

But her threatening violence crossed the line. Definitely move forward with the police on that. Sorry about what you are going through.

[LostandFound__x]

Thank you. And it’s really distressful 😢 but I appreciate your words

[blueonblack22]

Remember she threatened you.

[blueonblack22]

@LostandFound__x and what the hell could have you possibly done to drive this girl nuts. You are probably getting attention from a guy she likes.

[Knightwatch27]

You are most certainly not fat or ugly, but most of these lunatics do nothing beyond attempting to provoke. You can easily prove her crime since you have letters and have her arrested for harassment.

[LostandFound__x]

Yeah the police recorded the letters… thank you though!! Don’t know where these lunatics pop out from!!

[Knightwatch27]

No worries. Make sure to talk to people if you feel anxious. It really helps.

[LostandFound__x]

It really does!

Threats don't bother me. And I'm the type of person who doesn't make threats, because I feel like they're for people who only think about the awful things they want to do to you, rather than just doing them.

[LostandFound__x]

I agree. I’ve never been one to use words I only act because I don’t really do crazy things like this nor am I scared to confront people.

NOT YET however who knows what the future may bring. I wonder if you can file a restraining order against yourself or even better if you are a criminal can you file a restraining order against a police department? Now I’m pondering this shit.

Wow not like this no. I hope you're ok and the police have been able to help. Stay safe

[LostandFound__x]

Thanks

Nope. As a man, i don’t think i can get one. I’ve had friends and relatives who were denied; likely because they were male.

I should have. But I didn't and the guy came back around me and I went to jail because he called the police on me for some nonsense. After he had "evidence" I did something to him.

[Jennz6]

I need to but he threatened me

[LostandFound__x]

Omg sorry girl

[DrPepper12]
