Terrible facebook problems

    Hey,

    My ex girlfriend has started badmouthing me, lying and making up alot of bad things about me on facebook. I have blocked her and her friends and family. She is basically saying I am a complete psychopath, weirdo , obsessive and controlling and that I hacked her facebook and email accounts. I know I didn't hack anything or do anything wrong , as for the describing me - she's describing herself and saying its me basically. She has been posting an awful lot of bad things about me on facebook so my friends tell me. I havent seen what she said I dont really want to. I would like to know how I can stop this, Can I contact facebook or something ??? She went as far as going to the Gaurds and said I hacked her profile and emails. She is a complete nut job and had absolutely no proof I did this. Why would I bother ? I just wanted the relationship to end and to exchange possessions and perhaps be civil. But because she was in the wrong and ****ed me over she has decided to make me look like this to take the focus away from what she did. What can I do :( ??? Preferably nothing to do with the Gaurds. Can I contact facebook and get them to remove the nasty posts? I cant report her or anything as I have blocked her... Thanks

    Not legal advice but material published on facebook can, in principle, be defamatory.

    If you think you may have been defamed, contact facebook and tell them that. You also may want to consider getting legal advice.

    I would imagine that she is relying on her postings to provoke a reaction. If she's not getting a reaction then she'll obviously get bored and move on. How long this will take - I have no idea.

    You've taken the right steps to block her and others. Just grin and bear it. I don't know if you have mutual friends but perhaps you can explain the situation to them verbally.

    If she has made a complaint about you to the Gardai, have they approached you? Or is it just something that she has said? If they have approached you get legal advice on the matter before making a statement.

    You can report her profile to Facebook and specify a reason. What action they will take is uncertain and when they will take it. They are unlikely to move swiftly on two people falling out of a relationship.

    At the moment the only person who is looking foolish is your ex who is going to have a wall full of utterances.

    My advice - sit tight, cut all contact and reaction. She'll get bored and look sillier and sillier.
