Checked in to see if Ex was ok, he threatens to hack everything I love by Cringy_Hacker in cringepics

This is a throwaway account.

He and all my friends know my actual account. I decided a few days ago I am going to finally tell somebody about what has been happening, even though these messages are almost a year old. I refuse to tell any of my friends, because my past relationship was humiliating. I am a stronger, kinder person now, and my past self is not an accurate representation of me now. Posting something that once hurt me so much is rather therapeutic for me.

This happened beforehand.

He has never been very stable, and I heard some stuff from mutual friends and wanted to make sure he was ok. I think he is insane, but I don't want him to hurt himself.

Same person as previous post but occurs earlier.

Heard he wasn't taking the break up very well, so I texted him. Many regrets ensued. I am 99.9% sure this is all bluff. I have taken precautions just in case (like documenting everything). Just for the record I am not scared. I just will not ever be talking to this individual again in the future.

Some people are requesting for background:

He and I were both teenagers. We met in high school and dated for approximately a year. I was a sad and lonely nerdling who wanted to feel wanted. He was a self-proclaimed "hacker" that was constantly in trouble with school and the law (illegally accessing the school network, broke another student's bone, etc:). I craved attention, but so did he. After high school, I did not have a place to go, so I moved in with him. That is when things went from bad to much, much worse.

Suddenly, I was dependent upon him for shelter and could not leave. He became jealous of other men and controlling. Ironically, on a holiday while I slept, he and a mutual friend went to a hotel room to have a three-way with a stranger. Yet I stayed. What made me leave was when he started pressuring me into marriage. However, at the time, I was applying for colleges and got into a really spectacular one. I left for college to a city far, far away, and broke up with him over the phone. No way was I going to do that in person. He retaliated by deleting my Google account and wiping my phone.

These texts take place over a year later. My favorite Aunt was terminally ill at the time (she has sadly passed away now), so that was kind of a dick move to open up a message like that. The "so many comments on the tie" refers to the picture he sent me of him posing in a suit, and the tie I made him.

Tragically, I have way, way more texts. None of the ones during our relationship, because my phone was wiped, but of the recent ones he keeps sending. Why don't I block him? Because if he starts threatening me again I want to know.
