Ex exposed himself to me

I need opinions on what to do.

Going through acrimonious divorce with ex. His behaviour has been awful and I seriously think he's quite unhinged these days.

Yday when I called at the house to collect ds's stuff he had forgotten to return after contact, he was in his dressing gown having just showered.

I was trying to ask him about this week's contact arrangements when he asked if I wanted to see his cock. Obviously I said no, I just ignored it as he does it for effect. But then he got it out. I was stood outside one the doorstep and he was just inside so not sure if anyone in the street would've seen.

It was just before school pick up and the house is near the school.

I told him to stop and went to leave when he apologised for his 'joke'. So I attempted to finish talking to him because I needed to sort out arrangements. He kept sniggering and saying how hilarious it was. I told him he'd committed an offence but he said he didn't give a crap.

Would you report it? Will it look like malicious reporting because it's my word against his? I've already had police out due to threats but they couldn't really do anything as it wasn't specific enough.

He has made sexual comments in texts and emails too which I've kept.

The police officer emailed me the crime number and so I let him know how ex responded with the email. Have to say pc has been fantastic. Really understanding and thoughtful in how hew handled this. He took the time to ask the officer who saw ex what happened and apparently she laid law down in no uncertain terms. Certainly not a cosy chat and he admitted emails and exposure.

Ex was a bit tricky when he collected ds last night but better when he returned him.

I swing from hating him to pitying him. I find it hard not to care despite of everything. That sounds crazy. I just know his head is all over the place and he is most definitely unstable. God I really need to see my counsellor this week!

Thank you all for support. I was back to feeling teary yday because police officer had been so kind. It's hard feeling vulnerable. And I hate that I liked having a big strong male policeman make me feel better. Made me feel safe but don't like feeling like that. I want to feel strong without a man. Does that make any sense?

Great that the police are being supportive. It's early days but you will get there. Hope counselling goes well

Thanks penfold. Love your nn btw. Dangermouse was my fave!

Also justa... I might have to print this out as a reminder over next few weeks. He won't be laughing and wilyl waving when he's there in the divorce court an the judge is ordering him to hand over the house and pay for upkeep of offspring etc.

Thank you.

Your ex exposing himself to you... on the one hand you could laugh it off as some posters have suggested (and usually this would be my attitude), but there is something very sinister about it. He sounds mentally unhinged. You definitely did the right thing by contacting the police.
