Perfect therapy for people who need help. I would like to say, I never can imagine it could be possible to heal people like that

Don't Ignore he/she. They could be very well having a hard time getting over you. Just tell them how you feel even if it may not be the same as they feel and they may stop. If you ignore them it could get them false hope into thinking that you just don't want to talk at that very moment and that you may come around on down the line.
If I were in your shoes, I would tell them to leave me alone and then block any way for them to contact me.
It depends on if you'd like to keep in touch. If not, which it sounds like, simply explain to them that at this time you think it's best to go your separate ways. Do not be mean, or hurtful since they have feelings as well, and the intention isn't to hurt them.
It depends if it makes you uncomfortable, let them know how it makes you feel and be firm with your decision.
If you do not want to keep in contact with him, let him know, be clear and honest. Also being mature and respectful helps. Remember that you dont have to do anything that disturbs you.
Consider blocking their number, talk with the phone company they may be able to assist with this. Some smart phones have the ability to block certain callers. You might also consider changing your number and going unlisted.
Ignore them. Let them know that you are no longer interested. Show them you are happy without me and never speak poorly of them.
Politely tell them it is in your best interest not to contact them anymore. Staying in contact with ex's is often not a good idea.
I would block their number, remove and block them from any social media and if they do manage to contact you, ignore them! They'll soon get the message that you don't want to talk to them
I would keep in touch sometimes, but no more than maintaining the relationship to prevent us from hating each other. And, while doing that, I will take time to configure my feelings, and decide what to do about it. If i know we are not going back together, I will make it clear for him, but tell him that we could always be friend
