I am sorry that you have been subjected to this person and his antics.
You have done nothing wrong, so don't feel as though you have, it's obvious that this person is a harrassing you.
These sort of problems do not just ''blow over'' and disappear. They can continue unless there can be a stop to it.
As for advice, I am unsure how to procede but you have to first ask yourself whether or not you want to continue the friendship with him. He may not be a bad person but he is harrassing you to be friends with you. I've been in a sort of similar situation, which I don't feel comfortable enough to go into detail. I made one big mistake that the person who when I explained how I felt just wouldn't accept the ''no'' for the answer.
He has the problem Amanda, not you. You are not overreacting, it is not your fault that he can't take the ''no''.
These things just do not blow over. Unless there is a way to remedy and move on from the situation it will only steadily get worse (as what happened with me). You need support, not people flaming you because of this guy's word over yours. He thinks he is the victim in all of this...there are no victims...he put himself into this situation, he has caused this situation, he has spreaded rumors about you and perhaps manipulated people into thinking harshly about you.
You have people on here who know that you are not like that, you have people on here who have been through similar situations. My advice is you should block Simbafan, cease all contact with him. If he sends you a PM/Email or whatever..do not respond. If you respond you are giving him exactly what he wants.
As for the other person, I recommend that you put aside the fear of rejection which I know that it is hard, but you have to do this...you know that you have done nothing wrong and you have nothing to fear, and explain to him the situation and your actions. If he understands then that's great. If not, then you will have to think if you want to have him as a friend or not.
When I had the problem, he got a friend to PM me to change my mind. Whilst I told the person my reasons and he accepted them. I no longer feel that I can trust that person again. He should never have gotten involved as it was between me and the ''friend''.
Same goes for your situation. You can ask for advice, we can give but if someone gets involved on behalf of listening to the other and not hearing the other person's reasons aswell..then that is just wrong and he shouldn't get involved (I am sorry to say).
Hope this advice is okay. Remember Amanda, it is not your fault and I hope whatever you decide that this problem can be over.
