Should I Let Myself Be Caught in His Drama?

Dear Abby,

I recently met a man who I really like. At first, everything seemed exciting and full of promise, but since meeting him, my life has turned into a nightmare. I’ve been subjected to all kinds of harassment-people have called me relentlessly, leaving nasty messages and threats. My tires were slashed, and rude comments have been made about me both in public and online. I’ve even found strange notes left on my car, and my social media accounts have been hacked. It feels like every time I turn around, there’s another incident designed to intimidate or humiliate me.

What makes this even harder to bear is that I’ve noticed this man flirts with several other women openly. The attention I’m receiving seems tied to him, and I can’t shake the feeling that he might actually enjoy the chaos and drama his presence causes, as if women fighting over him is some kind of game.

I care about him, but I’ve realized that the stress, fear, and humiliation this has brought into my life just isn’t worth it. I don’t know how to proceed. Should I confront him about this behavior, try to distance myself, or just walk away completely?

I need guidance, because I don’t want to continue living in fear or letting someone else’s behavior control my life.

Sincerely,
Harassed and Hopeful
