Thank you to two random women

So tonight i was attacked by my partner. He spat in my face, pushed me over, kicked me, smashed my phone, cut my hand and poured a drink over my head. This all happened in a busy street in London, there were many many people walking past. The only people who stopped to help me were two lone women, one of whom he threatened as well as me. Lots and lots of men just walked on past while he did this. I just want to say thank you to these two complete strangers who restored my faith in humanity. I didn't get to thank them properly as i was to shaken up and trying to pacify him so that he didn't attack either of these women. If either of these ladies is on here just know that i thank you from the bottom of my heart. He has been a cheat and emotionally manipulative but until today he has never ever laid a finger on me, but it was the first and the last time he will ever do that to me.

I wouldn’t judge you I just wouldn’t take the risk of getting involved and I know sometimes people don’t actually want others to get involved as like you said can make it worse, but I wouldn’t involve myself personally, I have children so not going to take any risks that could end up with me getting hurt, unfortunately it does happen, so police would be all I would do.

@MinnieJackson that’s awful

@Giggorata I did wonder if I’d just made it worse for her but it was horrible to see and I couldn’t not try and help. Hope you’re in a better place now

A man intervened when an ex boyfriend was dragging me by my hair. The man put me in his car with his wife and gave me a really good talking to afterwards about how nobody had the right to lay a hand on me in that way. I was very grateful.

How are you, OP? I hope you have people to talk to. I think you may be feeling a bit of aftershock by now.
