P.s - feel free to read my previous threads about him for the backstory

That is simple.................because you are allowing him to contact you by not blocking all access via email, text, facebook, tweet, twits, and whatever the heck else is out there.

Either block all access or quit whining about something you can control but refuse to.

Well, I would have taken that opportunity to send him a message telling him that you were really down about those nude pics he has of you and requested he delete them. The thing that worries me about blocking someone is that sometimes it is obvious they have been blocked by the message they receive....(I wanted to block someone on my phone and did a "test call" from a friend's phone. After hearing the Verizon message that would be received by someone blocked, I am glad I did not do it. He may retaliate by sharing your pics.)

So if you go the blocking route, I would check into your server's/phone co.'s messages that the blocked caller gets. Sometimes they will not even know they are blocked and just think you are ignoring them. I know I would be likely to be more hurt/upset knowing for sure someone intentionally blocked me.

I am going to share something with you that was advice someone gave to an OP about a relationship gone wrong and here is is.....

"I'm sorry, but you either need to delete him on Facebook or just not contact or see him again. I don't think he's interested in the type of relationship you're looking for."

Sound familiar? It should. You posted it in response to the OP looking for help.

Because he's a narcissistic douchebag who wants attention. Just ignore him. Either block him or route his stuff to a folder where you can let it pile up and then delete it with glee in one fell swoop.
