Well, I got mumsnet hq to delete my old three following advice from you lovely ladies....

To recap briefly, woke up to partner with hands between my legs 3 nights running, I'm sure those who had posted (and I really really appreciated all those who did) will remember the rest.

Had e core group meeting and notified everyone that i had ended the relationship. Xp looked gutted. Said that my sw was due to visit me on Thursday and I would discuss the whys and wherefores with her then.

Xp probation officer asked for a word. It seemed that he'd always reported to her that things were good in the relationship. Following their 5 minute conversation, he'd informed me that he'd told her what had happened and at he was worried I might press charges. He said that she'd said "if she did, it could be misconstrued to be sexual assault"....highly doubt she said that and is a another means he is using to minimise what he has done.

Xp is currently begging for another chance. Wants to be a better partner, father blah blah blah......

Sw came around today and I told her everything that had happened. She was really supportive and understanding....I really do like her, can relate to her a lot. She said that ds will come off the plan as I am a good protector, she has no doubts about that. She understand why's hat I haven't wanted to break the family up, and she understands why. But says that I have given it a good go.

Xp is still living here, he has nowhere else to go. It's difficult. I still love him but know that we cannot work things out. I want more for my ds.

He is looking at housing a good 2 hours away from here, which will be difficult for contact with ds. He said he will pick up ds after work on Friday, then travel an hour to pick up dd, then travel the 2 hours to his place (when he gets it). The timings that I've given are not at rush hour so can see him getting home at midnight. Ds would then have to be back for his swimming lesson at 4.30pm on Sunday.

I told both my sw and xp that if ds returns home when older saying daddy was shouting at so and so, I would have serious concerns as I know exactly how unreasonable he is....and what his shouting is like. Sw said that it's all about bringing ds up to be honest, no secrets. And if there is shouting to see how he feels about it, if he's scared etc etc. if I has concerns, I could stop contact.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for your responses. Honestly think your sometimes harsh advice is what I have needed to realise that his behavious is not on. And any hope I have of him changing and having this happy family is just not going to happen.....despite xps empty promises to change his ways.

Here's to moving in with my life and becoming happier!! :)

Great to hear that you sound so positive Smile. Has xp moved out permanently? even better news.

Becominghappy · 28/04/2012 12:37

And it's all gone wrong. He is coming back today. I'm absolutely livid. He'd said to me that he was stopping so that he could see his dd and his dad. I had arranged to go out for a meal last night but had to rearrange as he was visiting family before viewing today. He actually went out on lash. Whines about never seeing son and then lies to me. So I asked him what time he was back for his stuff to stay at sisters. He said he not leaving, he pays the half the mortgage. Oh and he didnt sexually assault me (despite already admitting this) he just violated my privacy. I said I will report him for what he did if he doesn't leave. To which he told me to go for it. So the question is....can I stop him from being here even though he is on mortgage?

Call his bluff

Report him

Get yourself a solicitor immediately and find out all your legal options. With his history and all these outside interventions, I can't believe he would have so much power over you.

DO NOT give him overnight visits with your son, he's only 4 months old FGS.

CogitoErgoSometimes · 28/04/2012 12:55

You do not have to let him back in your home, even if he does pay towards it. Wait until he goes out, get a locksmith to change the locks and let him argue the toss from a distance. This will take him some time even if he does have a case. Talk to CAB or a solicitor or your bank in the meantime and see how you can get his name off the mortgage and out of your life.

Dee03 · 28/04/2012 12:56

I think to get him out the house you will have to report him and it will have to go to court. Thats what a neighbour of mine had to do years ago. Things may have changed these days tho.
Please do something to get him out.
Keep safe. Xx

sugarice · 28/04/2012 14:38

What a bastard! Don't let him in, can you call your sw?. Stay safe and thinking of you and your baby..

midwife99 · 28/04/2012 14:54

Phone social services emergency duty team NOW. Duty SW will come out right away. Phone 101 & report the assault to the police & say you don't feel safe. He will be removed. Angry

Lueji · 28/04/2012 14:55

Go for it.

I did and he did leave.

GingerBlondecat · 29/04/2012 07:59

I don't know your BG but from what it sounds like, is that he only just go onto the Morgeage (sp) Get some legal help, it might not be too late to dunp him off it.

Definetly report him for the secual assault.

((((Hugs))) and GL

Are you ok love?

tantrumsandballoons · 30/04/2012 12:14

Are you ok op?
I was so pleased for you when I first starting reading but I hope you are staying strong.
You know you did the right thing ending the relationship and I really hope you continue, you deserve to be happy and safe.

It's a difficult thing to do, but as I'm sure you well know it will be worth it in the end.
