Harassed by My Boyfriend's Ex-Girlfriend

My question involves defamation in the state of: NC.
My fiance's ex has been hauntinf us for two years. We have witnesses and physical evidence of her harassment. She constantly falsely acuses me of calling her and, of course, has no evidence of such. She has been known to pretend to be on the phone arguing with me so that her children can bare witness to her false theatrics. Today, after my fiance called her out on all of her games, she falsely claimed that she had a notarized restraining order against me. I have not been summoned or notifies and will be calling the court house to double check tomorrow. I am still awake at 1am and not able to sleep because I don't know what she will acuse me of next. I am terrified as her malice and theatrics know no boundaries and she doesn't care who she hurts (including her own children) as long as she can victimize herself every chance that she gets. What do I do?

If she threatens you, report it to the police. If she assaults you, report that to the police too.

What is it you wish to accomplish?

There is no such thing as a notarized restraining order.

I want the harrasment to stop. I am terrified that I will get in some sort of trouble for nothing based on her theatrics. Should I report her actions? She has even gone as far to create a fake faceboom with two of my pictures ans name so that she could say that I was harrassing her via facebook. I located the false faceboom and my family and I all reported it with facebook... I just want her to stop using me as a way to victimize herself. What if she beats the hell out of her damn self and then calls the cops and said that I did it? I have literally zero contact with this woman myself.

Well, assuming the second part of that is true, the cops would simply not investigate. It's just...common sense.

Yes... I have zero contact with her. 2 years ago she obtained my phone number after stealing my fiance's phone. I have the texts that she sent me. Bullying and all. I never responded but I have them saved. She has told my fiance that she knows where we live and that she wants to show up and cause problems and and a scene "for all of my neighbors to see". She manipulates her friends into thinking that she is still with my fiance and they suddenly show up at places like restaurants where we hang out and they slanderize us to our friends. She has gone as far as to call my fiance's family and bombard them with ugly lies about both of us only to cause strain on our relationship and to cause me emotional stress. All because she has children with my fiance and feels that she can say or do anything because she uses the children as a way to keep my fiance from filing harrasment against her. I just want to know if there is anything I can do legally to simply put her scandals on check. Obviously, I am upset and babbling but it has been two years and I am tired. My fiance defends me and everything but is afraid of the damaging effects a court battle might have on his children who also suffer greatly thanks to this woman. They refuse to have a relationship with me because of all of the lies she has told them. She told them that I had called her and called the children bastards. Obviouslyb she has no proof because there was no call. But the children believe her and thay sucks.

Another example of her her friends playing along. She hired her neighbor to tell my fiance that he had relations with my. This was in the beginning. When my fiance confronted me about it I demanded that he confront the man (who has no relationship to me!) again. My fiance demanded the truth and the guy quickly complied and said that his ex had hired him to lie so as to cause us problems. He confessed. I don't know how many other of her friends would go that length to hurt me. She has created a world of lies and has painted me as some villian so all of her friends see her a a victim and participate when they can.

If its all so bad, then perhaps this is a relationship that you would be better off if you got out of it.

If she is harassing you then go get a restraining order. If it gets approved, then whenever she contacts you, you can have her arrested.

As stated is the relationship worth it for this? That might be what you need to think about.

Well, I am set on being in this relationship. He has always been the messanger and has stood up for me. He just relays her shenanigans to me. We usually ignore it unless she starts contatcting our families with hurtful lies just to damge my reputation. It wasn't until she started bragging about the fake restraining orddr that I started to think that maybe I should press charges. But, all of her acts have been indirect. The only time it was direct was two years ago. So I am wonderinf if I can file harrassment or defamation charges for all of the indirect hoopla given that I have witnesses... My fiance always ignores her and never takes her serious. I know I am being sensitive... But I also worry about her taking it one step further. Thanks.

Why is he coming to you and telling tales? That's not ignoring her - that's feeding the drama.

No, you can't "press charges" for anything. No, you won't be successful in a defamation suit.

Seriously - you're making a choice here. He has children with this woman, and by extension you're going to be dealing with her and his children for life.
