There always seem to be at least one person from your past who can’t seem to shake you, and vice versa.

And, while there’s nothing wrong with carrying a torch for someone, there most definitely is a problem if you harass that person.

That’s what this woman is dealing with in regard to an ex-boyfriend who needs to give it up…

Check out what she had to say about this concerning situation.

AITA for walking dogs on a public trail?

“Went to walk my dogs on a public trail.

It’s paved, near the river, breezy and very well kept.

I’m not really on social media except for Facebook so I can look at market place for cool stuff for my collage wall.

I decided to take a pic of the dogs and where I was walking them and someone who decided to split from a relationship (months ago) saw it.

This trail was in the next town over and MILES from where they live.

This is really weird…

They reached out and smeared me for “stalking, not having a life, and being weird.”

I mentioned it’s a public space, no one forced them to look at my story, or even reach out to me.

Nothing they said was factual.

“My friends don’t like you, get a life, don’t come near me” bringing in things that don’t pertain to me walking my dogs.

It sounds like breaking up with guy was a good idea…

I already have big time insecurity for how they left and I’ve been doing my best to get back on my feet.

AITA for literally walking my dogs in a public area and posting it?”

And here’s how readers reacted.

This person said she’s NTA.

This guy is way out of line…

No doubt about that!

Give it up, dude!

She needs to ignore this guy and never engage with him ever again.
