My biggest mistake was starting a relationship with this guy even after telling him i wasnt quite over my ex. he pushed the relationship and I guess i just gave in because i didnt want to be alone and just move on.. Had i been patient and gotten to know him more, i would have seen all i know about him now. The drinking problem, the diabetes and the stroke. Not to mention the anger issues, bad temper and jelousy. i made a big mistake.......should have listened to my instincts.....there usually rite, along with all the red flags.

Block him and move on. That's how easy it can be.

If he randomly shows up at your house, tell him to get off your property or you will call the police. If it seems to be escalating beyond that (showing up at your workplace, following you, harassing your ex, etc.) take it seriously and document everything.

Hopefully, you've been able to gain some wisdom from this experience. There are far worse things than being alone. Thank goodness you two didn't move in together as it will be easier to keep this guy in his own lane since he doesn't share a home with you.

OMG, I thought this is a highschool couple.

You are too old for this crap. And you are too old to not have it ended sooner.

3 DWI's should have been indication enough that he is a nutcase. Come on, you know better.

As sad as that is to read, I agree. I've re read my post and thought the same,,,,I do know better but wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. In the begining ,He said he was going to therapy to get some help....maybe Im the one who need to go see a counselor. Thank you for the reality check...

I would break up with him. If a man wants to know something about me, he can ask ME.

I would watch my back. I hope this guy isn't the sort who won't let go. "If I can't have you, nobody can." Apparently there are a good number of freaks like that wandering the earth.

This guy is on a suicidal course. Diabetic, alcoholic, stroke, what else in his health history? He's almost 60 and hasn't learned anything. If you're lucky you'll read his obit in the paper instead of hearing him crash into your house some night about zero dark thirty.

You're old enough to know that drinking could be a problem for you. I'd suggest you go sober for a month and see if you can live without that IQ-lowering crutch, or if you're hooked. Nothing good ever came from taking that second drink. Or the first one.

Be very alert. And congrats on dumping him. Yes, there are far worse things than being alone. Believe me.
