What is a time you were pretty sure someone wanted to harm/kill you?

I was checking a former friend’s Instagram after not seeing them for a while. Wanted to see what they were up to. Saw they trimmed a whole bunch of people off their following list, including myself. They had less than 10 followers, including myself (last I saw his profile before, he had probably 100 or so). So I figured, well I guess this person doesn’t fuck with me anymore, so I’ll unfollow them. Didn’t really care about my relationship with them, so I didn’t mind.

Next thing I knew…

He messages me within 10 min, calling me a bitch and telling me to fuck off. Fast forward 3 days, and he makes another 4-5 accounts harassing me, telling me to kill myself, telling me to fuck off, and calling me various names and profane things. He kept sending me essays of texts between the hours of 3-7AM, and would continue to send them. He even mentions my family and other loved ones in his conversation too.

All over an unfollow lol. I just blocked and ignored. Only responded once to tell him to go away, and he did not take that well. People are crazy for sure.
