I have to say...this seems like a pretty normal girl to me. Men and women think VERY differently and what she did sounds like a very typical female response. I can easily imagine telling an ex that I'm dating someone else so that he will leave me alone. If I were you, I would consider it a compliment that she thought highly enough of you to want your protection instead of handling it on her own as if you were of no account. She probably thought it would be enough for him to just tell him that she was seeing someone else.
I agree. It was wrong of her to involve another person in her drama. She could have told the ex that she had moved on without giving him a name.The big issue is that she told him who she was dating and that guy has a criminal background so it is more of a high risk situation to do that.
You did the right thing. Until she gets a retraining order against the ex boyfriend, she is not ready to date.
Don't worry. There will be other women.
What is important is that now you know what to look for when you meet another one. You learned a valuable lesson.

I wasn't saying that's what she SHOULD have done by any means, just that I can understand how she could do that in a lapse of judgment.

I can't understand how the woman could of had a lapse of judgment that put a person at risk. I would say the woman is not very bright if she had lapse of judgment like that.
Lisa Nowak. there you go.
