Harassment has two definitions, (a third sometimes if a school is involved), the dictionary and legal definition. A quick google search:

Dictionary (From Google search page):

Legal:

Perhaps this will help you both see each other's arguments from the other's perspective.
Considering the fact that people are having a difficult time coming to an understanding on what exactly is harassment, I think the most fair (and probably most impractical) would be to have this taken care of in court. Of course the case should be treated as most other criminal law, where the presumption of innocence is maintained, and where it is the responsibility of the accuser to prove that the defendant is guilty.
