[30F] I feel so stressed out by my bf's [26M] mom and sister's behavior and it's now feeling like harassment

He stopped talking to them because there was some emotional /childhood trauma that HE told me about, and I did not in any way "convince him to stop talking to them". This is based off of what he told me. He stopped talking to his mom around 2 years ago but started talking to her last year again for around 2 months before breaking contact again.

I had nothing to do with him not talking to them and I feel like I have to constantly tell myself that I had nothing to do with it because I feel blamed for him not wanting to talk to them.

His mom specifically told me he stopped talking to her when I first started dating him, as if I was the reason he stopped talking to her. He says he was wanting to stop contact for years and it didn't have anything to do with me.

Last year when he started talking to his mom again, he ghosted her again after he told me he felt blamed by his mom because apparently his sister stopped talking to her and it's somehow his fault. This is what he told me.

I stopped talking to them myself because I was stressed out from something traumatic that happened and I was going through a lot of emotions and couldn't handle more stress. He ghosted them after around a month of me not talking to them so I guess in their minds they thought I was the reason again that he ghosted them again?

After the no contact there have been several calls that he didnt pick up and tried to block but it still shows up in the call log. So like basically a call everyday will show up in his call log. It's been around 7 months I think of him breaking contact for the second time. He actually told his mom to never contact us again as his last text to her or he will file a restraining order so the words were clear but for some reason in their minds this isn't his decision

Apparently now his sister is talking to his mom again. This morning they both called me and I didn't answer. Then they called the cops to our residence and it was targeting me as if I was holding him captive or something or doing something to him, something accusatory to me.

I feel stressed and now I feel scared in my home because I don't know why they are blaming me even though I never told him to stop talking to them and it's completely based on his decisions and I feel scared of them popping up to threaten me. I dont understand why their anger is so directed to me and they cant understand I had nothing to do with his decision

He is going to file a restraining order . Is there anything else we should do in this situation ? I never dealt with this before and I guess I wanted to talk about it because I don't know anyone's who been in this situation

TL;DR:

My boyfriend went no-contact with his mom and sister due to emotional/childhood trauma he told me about. He made that decision on his own — I never told him to stop talking to them. His mom falsely believes I’m the reason he cut contact, even though he said he’d wanted to do so for years. They recently called the police on me for not answering their calls, likely assuming I influenced him again. I feel scapegoated, blamed, and now scared in my own home. He’s filing a restraining order, but I’m feeling extremely stressed and don’t know what to do in the meantime.
