My ex has blocked me on fb in the last week, which I find quite hilarious as he’s not supposed to contact me in any way, shape or form. Obviously trying to resist the urge. I mean, as if I’d initiate contact after the years of abuse I suffered off him!
I do wonder what he’s up to though and I do feel sorry for/are a bit envious of how well he might be treating another girl (as he swiftly moves on to find my replacement). But then I re-read abusive texts, look at evidence – print outs, I have of him sexting other women and meeting them when we were together. That gives me a swift kick up the derriere
I still listen out during the day and night for that tap on my window though when he has no money or tries to worm his way back in. Good luck with that mate as I now have CCTV. xx

Hi all,
yh, it’s amazing how many times I’ve been propositioned in the 3 1/2 weeks since I managed to break free (apart from a small blip where he came back into mu life just over a week ago for a few days).
Had offers of threesomes, of fun ‘to keep my mind off him’, to be shown ‘what a real man is like’.
I tried to be nice at first, be polite (Too soon, not ready, still panicky etc etc etc), but hints weren’t taken.
Realised ignoring and bluntness were the only way forward.
There’s that juxtaposition though that you don’t want to build walls around you forever

Thanks for your comment.

Yes, I agree. I am seriously looking into what I can do, like lobbying etc.
I also aim to fundraise so to bring something positive to the table

Hi Dragonfly,

Thanks for your reply.
Gosh, sounds like you had a horrific experience in court. You got abused for being abused. Shocking!!!
I can imagine my ex would have stated self-defence too, coward that he is.
The police do all the hard work for the courts to just mess it all up.
We can’t sleep at night, I wonder if they have trouble…probably not

It makes me so want to do something about the courts and their stupid laws. But I wouldn’t know where to start.

No wonder so many women suffer in silence for years/eternity. Some/most/all of the stories on here have had me in tears.

yh, think I’ll take your advice about work and take my time. I can’t afford it really, but I’ll just have to cut back on other expenses/food ration.

Thanks ever so xx
