I need anyone's help out there that is willing to listen to me.... I recently broke up with my boyfriend, and it was really nasty, and has gotten way out of hand..... With all the mud-slinging that has gone on between us...he never believed anything I would tell him, from all the answers to his questions to offering how I felt about the situations, he would not believe what I had to say. Worse has now come to worse. To get him to listen to me, I told him that I had told his friends, family and workplace associates that he was gay. I told him that I had talked with his close friends, and sent emails to his co-workers, outing him from the closet.....He has now told me that he has contacted a lawyer to get a restraining orders against me....Would some please help me with advice on what to do, or please point me in the right direction on what I should do..... Thanks for your cooperation.... Desparate in WI..

Hello?? You sound like the abuser. Your "feelings" are so important that they justify outing your ex.?? My ex outed me to family and work because I didn't respect his "feelings". For your sake and his, I hope the restraining order works.
