Had enough...

[Keepswimming123]

Stupidly went back to the boyfriend's house this eve, he was obviously pissed. I wasn't. He went bonkers when his house mate came back (he is 36!!!) and shouted at me, and grabbed me by the wrists and literally put me out of the house. Aibu to block his number and never speak to him again?

OP, the road to this point was lined with red flags and the only destination is clear. The drinking, the fact that he has been violent before, and you haven't been wanting to spend time with him.

Forget acting out of pique and chucking the ring down the toilet and take a calm, strong rational decision that you are worth more than this and you need to invest in your life not waste it with wasters. Put the ring in a Jiffy bag and return it to him, with a note saying your relationship is over, you will not change your mind or negotiate with anyone who kicks you and not to attempt to contact you

Then walk away with your head held high and your eyes focused forward on your own future.

Sorry about the loss of your Dad.

Dont throw the ring away, sell it and use money for something for you. Oh forget to add unless back story dump him.

Cut all ties and give him no excuse to contact you. Don't keep the ring and sell it, he'll have an excuse to get in touch which would be unsafe, you safety is worth more than the scrap value that you would get for a ring.

you wont get much if you sell as scrap either, if you do they would only give you the weight of the gold - my 18ct 5 diamond (together a carat) was only worth around 45 to the gold scraps (i know!!) i kept it
you might be able to sell on eBay, but you would be competing with the guys from hong kong etc, and you would need to have the certificates that go with it

Am I right in thinking you posted about him before?

Didn't he/his parents move another girl in as soon as you moved back to your mums and he turned up drunk to your dads funeral.
I thought you broke off the engagement back then, what made you go back??
You had lots of good advice on that thread and I know sometimes its not easy to make that final break, but if you wont leave him for your own sake do it for your children.

I think he's proved that he's not going to change. You deserve to be happy and don't need to put up with this shit.

You need to do this and keep strong.
