Feeling terrible again after a year. What should I do?

Ex boyfriend started a smear campaign after I broke up with him because he was treating me badly - to see if he would change. He spread nasty rumors about me to people I don’t even know. A year has past by and I still feel like a stranger in my own town. I went into a shop today, not realizing that it was owned by one of my ex’s friends. As soon as I starting looking at the clothes I started to feel so uncomfortable, the sales people were looking at me so badly basically letting me know I was unwelcome (like the scene in pretty woman). I felt so uncomfortable and sad. I don’t know what to do anymore but it’s getting hard to bare

Mine did the same. The only thing to do is go on, and move on. I feel if people don’t know me for the person I am, they don’t matter. I know, and that’s all that matters. If they are not talking about me, they’re talking about someone else. I don’t want to be around those type people who judge. It hurts, but there’s really nothing that can be done. But this guy won’t give up. He continues to smear me to this day. I’ve done nothing wrong whatsoever to deserve it. He’ll have to answer before God one day, is all I can say.
