So scary!  How awful for the poor girl, but thank goodness your alarm bells went off.

I had an ex who, two years after breaking up, started calling me at 4-5am several nights in a row from a blocked number.  When I'd answer, he'd just listen.  I eventually started sleeping with the phone off, and then he'd text me.  "Uh...this is your ex.  Just wanted to say hi."  Effing creeper.

Gesh you guys have some crazy stories.

When I was a jr. in hs I dated the most popular guy at the larger (rich kid) high school that was only a few miles from mine. At first he was romantic and all that but quickly turned he into the bigest perv on the planet; so I dumped him. He'd never been dumped before so he blew up and vowed to make my life a living HELL.  Long story short he kept true to his word. Over the course of the six months following our break up he turned most my "friends" and the rest my school against me. He even got my at the time bestfriend to try to fight me, six times in one lunch only a few days after she'd come watch me teach a kendo class! I declinedd her offers. It was really hard living in almost excile from my peers but my family had my back and my bestfirend, now BF , supported me and helped me through it. Ex messed up that summer break so no one believed him anymore to say the least.
I forgave him when he appologized but he still stalks my fb a lot so I keep him at arms length.

Dating a guy for 2 1/2 yrs he was never very serious with me and I broke it off to become more serious get married ect.  Not once did he bring me flowers or anything he began sending me flowers and knocked on my bedroom window when I still lived with my parents at 2am to try to talk to me.  He would do that occasionally when we were together.  We were doing a show together at time we broke it off too.  He would not leave me alone at rehearsals and performances. Luckily I had a quite a few friends in the show and people I knew for a long time that realized he was crazy and not me.  Cast members had to escort me to my car so he wouldn't harass me to try to talk to me or get back together with me.  This was in 07 he called me last year to try to get back together with me again.... it was from a new number so I didn't know it was him.  I got to gloat over how happy I was & how wonderful BF is.

I don't think story is too bad compared to some of the other you guys have shared.

I think he realized he loved me far too late in the game.  I tried not to really gloat I didn't want to be mean either.  I was very clear I was so happy and that nothing was going to make me change my mind on that.

Oh man, I don't know if mine can really compare to some of the ones already noted but here goes:

At the beginning of my freshman year of high school I was dating this guy, and I'd had a pretty big crush on him since middle school. Finally we decided that we wanted to be a couple and started to date. I think it was only a week or so into our relationship that he decided we were better off as friends and we broke up. We remained friends, and everything seemed to be going great. Then, in our junior year of high school we decided we would try dating again. Anyway, we got to the two week mark and he came over to my house and well... tried what a lot of guys at that age are thinking. I, however, didn't want any of it, so he left. I got a picture posted to my Myspace of him at a party, doing this chick on the couch, right there in the open...  so I call him the next morning and broke up with him. On Monday I fnd out that he started a rumor that he's had sex with me and that other girl and that I had tried to "trap" him so he broke up with me that night... before he did the other girl. Once that rumor died down, he picked up the rumor again and said that I'd gotten pregnant and had an abortion. 

About a month after that rumor finally died down, the girl he'd cheated on me with broke up with him and he came back to me and was all full of sorry, and tried to tell me that it was his ex-GF who had started those rumors. I told him where he could shove it. So, we didn't really speak much until we graduated. I had a few BFs after him, but nothing that really lasted, so about a year after I started dating now-FI, he sends my FI a message via FB with a link to a photo of ex-BF on the couch with that other girl but with MY face horribly photo shopped into the picture. The message said 'You might want to rethink your relationship with a whore!" Little did ex-BF know that FI and I lived with each other and pretty much spent every night together - not to mention, even a blind guy could see that it was faked.

Since FI and I have gotten engaged, ex-BF has tried to add me on FB multiple  occassions, and I've even gotten some drunk messages from him on other's people's phones telling me how I should be marrying HIM not FI. I even got a picture of what he could "offer" me. Let's just say, if you're going to use THAT as a reason, make sure you're very well endowed. FI got a kick out of that... He is blocked on FB (and my settings are super strict now) and unless it is a number I know, I just delete messages (unless I am expecting a text or call from a number I don't know). I really can't believe all these years later he still cares so much...

Yeah...I generally don't think about it, but my 10 yr. HS reunion is this weekend so it's been on my mind. It definitely taught me to trust my instincts. He never did anything outright wrong, but it was almost as if he was trying too hard. Turns out the police found a notebook where he kept lists of all the women he'd slept with in his life. I'm so thankful I was a good girl in HS!!

I only had one super serious relationship before my now-FI.  This guy and I were great for the first year or so then stuff started to go downhill.  We broke up after a year and 8 months together.  My now-FI and I started dating a bit after that.  When we got engaged, my ex spread a rumor that we only got engaged because I was knocked up.  And he tried telling stories of my "exploits" between when he and I broke up and when my now FI started dating.  Pretty sure he made most of those stories up.  

It's crazy what some people say when they realize you moved on.

I remember when this happened. I was coming home from a Maryland basketball game with my sister's boyfriend at the time, who is a state cop. We saw all these police cars pulled over on the side of the road and he called in to find out what happened. It was when they found her body. Poor girl. Glad you got away from him.

kaitlynmichelle

I've got nothing that is nearly as crazy as some of your ex stories.  One guy I dated for a few weeks in HS was FB stalking me for years after we broke up.  I kept refusing his friend requests, and I eventually blocked him when he kept sending me creepy messages.  

Allusive - that article gave me the shivers.  So glad you got away from him!

peekaboo2011

Allusive, that's absolutely crazy.

I don't have too much as far as crazy exes go.

I did date a guy in HS, right before I left for Germany, that bought me a diamond and blue topaz ring.  I was 16, it was awesome.  We had been dating three months.  The week before I actually left, we went out and then went back to his apartment (any guy in HS who has his own apartment is generally bad news), and he tried to have sex with me.  It took me kicking him off me before he got the message.  I broke up with him after I cheated on him on the plane to Germany, and once or twice after that with another guy in my program.  He was super creepy.  Other than those two incidents, there wasn't much I noticed at the time, but looking back now, our entire relationship gives the shivers.

And my most recent ex told me he wanted me to die in a fire.  So, that was fun.

1) my HS bf and I were together for 7 years, when we finally broke upo for good. He really wanted to still escort me to my sorority formal as a sign of friendship. One day I realized that it wasnt a good idea, and I wanted to have fun and not have to deal with him SULKING all night, that I would take a friend. Instead of taking a frat boy (whom he HATED, I was trying to respect his feelings), I took a mutual best friend from HS that is like a brother to me... 150% platonic. Well when I called him I didn't realize he was with my ex. My ex got on the phone screaming about how i never loved him blah blah blah. We never spoke again, but my friend and I had a blast

2) College BF and I broke up and I left the country. A month later he was dating my sorority sister and "best friend" who used to sleep at our apartment all the time when we would go out. 3 years later they are living together, and she still talks to me like nothing happened.

But nothing nearly as crazy as OP! Seriously! That reminds me of on friends when Chandler and Ross were on their college website and Ross faked his own death and had a memorial to see if anyone cares.... Random.

Nothing I have can hold a candle to Allusive's post, which is terrifying, but here's what I've got: 

I had a guy bring me a to-go box from a date he went on while we were still together.  He took her to my favorite sushi restaurant that he hadn't been able to afford taking me to in months.   "She doesn't like fish," he explained as he handed me the box.

I also had an ex call me 45 times and leave 20 voice messages.  Some of them vaguely threatening ("don't come out to this concert tomorrow night. Or else!") and some of them accusing me of things that didn't even make sense.  ("I guess you're going to go sleep with your sister now, since you're such a lesbian!!" ..What?)
