Everything that I wanted to say has already been said, except for:

Move on. /blacklist, /ignore, whatever you have at your disposal, use it and move on. If you share similar friends, don't fret about it. It only fuels him. Don't care who it is, don't care how it works, he's not worth your time, so don't give him that time.

If your friends throw a stink, it's time to move on from them. This part is actually a bit harder, as being alone in an MMO is lonely, but do know you have the RPC behind you, and making friends is easy. Like...really easy. Join a new guild, and then BAM! new friends. It takes a bit of work to get back to regular grouping with people, but helping others out and chiming in on similarities and funny stuff gets you right where you need in about a weeks time.

In a similar situation, every EX I've had has been harassed by their own Exes, before, during and after my relationship with them. It's usually over Facebook or phone texts. All they have to do is block them on Facebook or block them on their phone. Then move on. They have not. They will not learn. Please learn from this-- they won't go away, so you have to do the extra 5 minutes of work to not have to see them again. (The text thing may be a bit harder, as phone companies for some reason don't make it easy to block numbers, but it's still easy enough to ignore texts. It's especially fun to send them pictures of funny cats. Diffuses situations pretty easily)

The most important thing to remember is that bullys of the internet tend to stay on the internet. There's been cases where this has...uhm...been not true, so do not give out addresses and phone numbers, but if it gets bad, then the local authorities are the best bet.

But if there's no actual life-threatening thing to worry about, then it deserves no attention if you don't want it. /ignore and move on. If it's not a feature in-game by launch, then just ignore his /tells if he manages to find you.

From the sounds of it, it seems like you spoke to him. STOP it. Just stop. No matter the circumstance, just stop it. Don't give him clues about what your plans are (in-game and for ARR, as in don't give him locations for him to find your character), don't ask what he's doing, don't even give him the time of day. Just don't talk to him. If you Mis-tell, don't say anything else. I don't care if he blows up your /tell window for 10 minutes-- because that's as long as it's going to last for. Then he'll move on to /tell you a couple days later. He'll blow up your box for five minutes. He'll stop for a week. He'll send single /tells once in a while, but he'll get no response. Why? Cause you ignored him.

I'll PM you details on Social List mechanics for FFXIV.
