"D"H exploded last night in front of the children over something really stupid (DDs) phone going off when we were sleeping.
He slammed doors and shouted at the children making them all scream and cry, I jumped up to defend them, told him he can't slam doors and talk to them like that. I got in between him and the bedroom door frame and he pulled me out of the way.
He was up in my face sneering at me, he called me all sorts of names and threatened to push me down the stairs, he was yelling at the top of his voice and I was telling him he had to go down stairs at least so I could settle the DC.
Eventually he did but only after yet more name calling with a look of disgust on his face.
I settled the youngest easily (told her it was a bad dream) and eldest came in with me and it all calmed down.
Next thing I know there are 2 policeman at the door, someone had heard him and called 999.
They wanted to arrest him but as it's not happened before and I'm still not sure why he did it I told them he didn't hurt me and I didn't tell them about him threatening me. They said they would log it as a disturbance after completing a DV log sheet.
He messaged our daughter this morning after leaving for work and asked if she called the police. We didn't reply.
I messaged him and told him to find somewhere to stay, we need time apart he replied no and then asked if I was throwing him out over a stupid call on our DDS phone.
I haven't replied and I've left my mobile at home, he keeps calling my work phone.
Please tell me I'm not making too much of this, I feel like I can't make a choice of what to do from now but I know he can't be happy and I've not been happy for a while either but never expected anything like this, he hates me.
