If it is causing you stress, trauma, sadness or any negative feeling, then you must ask them to stop. If you have asked and they have not complied, you must find a way to block them from contacting you. If there is no way, then I suggest trying to ignore them or changing your number if that doesn't work. If it becomes threatening, don't hesitate to contact the police.

If your ex keeps on contacting you, I would change numbers, block him, or even tell him to move on. If y'all broke up, it was because of a reason. Time to move on.

It depends upon why they are contacting you, whether it's because they want to talk to you as a friend or if they want to get back together with you. If they want to be friends then there shouldn't be an issue with talking with them from time to time and being there for them, if it's not too difficult. However if they do want to get back together with you but you don't feel the same way anymore, tell them.

If you have moved on with your life it would be wise to discontinue all personal communication with your ex. However if you are still single and see where you still have feeling for the person then you must evalute your feelings as well as the reason you broke up then decide whether to start over or break free.

If your ex continues to contact you, and the contact is unwanted, there are a couple of things you could possibly do. In my experience, politely telling them stop contacting you will allow them to understand that their attempt at talking to you can be painful. Sometimes, even leaving the message to the side for a while before you are ready to talk to them, will give you a bit more time to come to terms wit your feelings. Sometimes not saying anything is more powerful than any words we can write down.

If you don't want to talk, start off with making the message clear and if they don't get it... Say Adios! Block that boy/girl/other!

Do you honestly feel like talking to that person? How does it make you feel? If it negatively impacts you I personally would ignore them because my well being is important to me.

If you want to maintain the friendship tell them. But you also need to tell them if you dont. Communication is key. Just be polite about it.

If he is abusive.. go to the police or tell someone you care about like a parent or a friend. I would say to ignore it, turn off your phone, or get a new number! Whatever you do I suggest do not contact him back. That will just create more problems. I hope I've helped, I know what your going through I was dealing with the same issue last week. Stay strong and remember the best is yet to come.😊
