I told him I didn’t need his help.
My ex-boyfriend was beginning to get a bit too possessive for my liking, and that was why he was now my ex.
It wouldn’t have been too bad if he was just possessive about me, but he was also becoming possessive of my HVAC system.
His being an HVAC technician, meant that he took on the job of doing all of the work that was needed on my HVAC system. He would come to the house and do the cleaning and maintenance without me even asking him to. If he thought he heard something odd when he was visiting, he would be bringing in his tools and checking out either the furnace or air conditioner; whichever was working at the time. I appreciated all the work he had done, but when I decided to break up with him, he went crazy. He told me that no one else was allowed to work on my HVAC system. He was so upset that he would no longer have rule over the HVAC that he went so far as to tell me that if anyone else touched it, he would make sure I had to have it replaced. This really bothered me and I called the police. They told me that unless it was an actual threat to my personal being, there wasn’t much they could do. Two weeks later, I was standing in my kitchen drinking a cup of coffee. I couldn’t sleep, so I stood there looking out the window without the lights on. I swore I saw someone walking around my house, I called the police and told them there was a prowler outside. My ex-boyfriend was in the process of disassembling my air conditioning unit when they got there.
