So I heard from the police yesterday that they have confirmed they won't be progressing harrassment charges against my ex due to lack of evidence / circumstances not being severe enough (for that I'm reading that, because he didn't physically hurt me, it's not enough for them to do anything) anyway this means he's no longer under any conditions not to contact me.

I think I mentioned in a previous post that he happens to work for the same organisation as me and in the same building, although for a different department. He's also had several weeks off (I presume signed off sick but I'm just guessing) so until now it's not been too much of an issue but with the police stuff being resolved he has returned to work. My team mostly works from home still since COVID but today had a compulsory office day for 'team building', my manager is aware of everything going on but made it clear she still expected me to go in.

We had a meeting room booked for a portion of the day and before the meeting I was helping make a round of teas and coffees, and went to use the facilities. On my way into the toilets I saw him - I ducked straight into the ladies so not sure if he actually saw me or not and I managed to avoid him for the rest of the day (other colleagues of mine have been so supportive and were checking ahead and/or acting as my 'bodyguards' for the rest of the day so I didn't risk bumping into him alone, for which I was very grateful, but it's not exactly sustainable.

I'm just so scared now that he will either turn up at the house (I changed the locks but he could still turn up to cause a scene) or I think it might be worse if he approaches me at work or somewhere else public - knowing him, he would act super understanding and polite and then make out to everyone that I'm the crazy and unreasonable one. At least if he comes to my home and kicks off it is a very simple solution of calling the police again.

I just wish this could all be over and him out of my life for good.
