hey guys. for almost 2 months now I've been seeing a girl. she's great and we met through work. we both got dumped around the same time and when talking about it and getting to know each other we had chemistry and started seeing each other. Yesterday her ex, let's call him John, text her and asked her has she been seeing anyone and she said me. He then text her back with claims that he will "carry his head off" and "beat the f*%k out of" aimed at me also calling me a sly rat and that if he sees me he "won't be able to control myself".
here's the problem. I'm not by any means a fighter. and this guy is. he's been cautioned by police for assault and is a pretty hard guy. I'm not sure how to deal with this guy. any advice?
Just try to avoid him and in worst case scenario carry a knife or whatever, self defense wont get you in jail
