Well, I understand the harassment situation. I have told my x I don't feel its necessary for him to continue to phone me. Our financial situation is handled thru CSE and he has decided to not visit w/ his children. So, I don't feel there isn't anything we need to discus. So why he feels he need to find reasons of his own to speak w/ me..is redundant. Other than asking him to stop phoning..what else is there!

Stop answering. If there is no reason to talk, do not pick up. Do not answer emails unless you have to. Eventually, the non response will get boring to him.
If you don't have it - get caller ID. You can't block his calls, but you can screen. Put your machine on so that you don't hear the messages when they come in. Listen to it and him on your own schedule.

Well. I have continued that tactic (not answering) he just continues to phone. As for non-response getting boring to him..yeah rgt. its been 7 months already..when does boredom creep in.

he has disrupted my life enough..to go back thru and tell co-workers, families, and other asssociates a new number would be too much trouble. I just let him tire himself out by calling since I don't ever answer.

when you do talk to him, what is it he is calling for thats so important? can you call your phone carrier to block his number? you should start there.

If you can't block the calls then try a answering machine. Turn the volume down and just check it when you want. Use the caller id to take the calls you want. I would go ahead and block all the unknown numbers and most companies do this in the same way. You can look up online the instructions for this with most companies.

I have to admit, I have been the one that made the constant calls, for the first four years after our split we were great friends and parents, now he is married and doesn't want as much information on our daughters life. I would call him about every detail, he got an attorney to get an order to have the contact stop (via an emergency hearing) which was denied but that made me see OMG I do call alot. I have since stopped calling and only let him know major issues via email. But he still overly screens calls from my numbers and misses his daughters calls. I hope one day soon you ex sees the light because in the long run it makes him look bad and hurts the kids. Sorry if doesnt help.
