Name changed. My face is scratched up to shit. Can't leave the house. He is a complete and utter bastard. Reported him so many times and the police don't care. Then again, I am a fool for continuing to see him.

I've read your post - you're an amazing woman. Keep being kind to yourself.

Yep, remembered and kept as evidence. The police don't seem to want to know though. Why is that?? Had a lovely evening with a friend and our horses. But got home and now I feel crap. Stupid fecking arsehole wanker. And I can't forgive my sister either - she knew what she was doing... My fave is still a wreck. Running out of excuses

You don't need to do anything regarding letter or contact. Keep it with any other "evidence". Tbh I'm surprised he hasn't also blamed your sister. Your relationships are toxic. Ignore both and move on to a more positive future. In the meantime please get the cut looked at , somehow it seems that you aren't because deep down you believe you deserved it - you didn't.

Have the police been back in contact with you? I'm so shocked by their lack of action. Can you afford legal advice to look into a restraining order?

Have you told your friend what is going on?? You will need real life support going through this xx

have you been to see a health professional yet? you must. to get it recorded.

Montane, if you have suspicions then report. Don't troll hunt, especially on a DV thread.

Have the police referred you to the DV section ?

Are you serious Montane? I have my own thread up with pictures and it rambles on usually not making sense if I'm upset. Now Im wondering if Ive been deemed a liar despite pictures. :S

Op has actually did a great job of getting things down despite this being so fresh. Lord knows when it happened to me I swung between anger, wanting to spill all and then minimizing, trying to make it not so bad.

Im so sorry this all happened. I believe you.
I cant believe the police aren't taking this seriously. At least you have hand written evidence now! In my case they did attempt to come out when I locked myself in bathroom fearing for my life but couldn't get into the flat complex apparently. I waited and waited. 2nd time police were called I escaped naked and ran to a neighbour and banged the door to be let in. Police came this time, took a statement, brought me home. Third time police were called Id escaped from his car, these ones were very sympathetic, took me 100% seriously, spoke to me as if they werent police and showed me his record etc showed disgust. They brought me home and met me a few more times, arrested him, rang me to keep me updated.
I really hope you end up with the ones that understand this time! X They take it out of your hands.

You are being a lot stronger than I am, so much respect xxx

Montano- i reported it for those reasons and a few more but nothing happened so it must be legit.

Montane - if you were casting doubt upon the veracity of this thread, then you would have been deleted for troll-hunting, not personal attacks or abuse. Troll hunting on a thread is also against Talk guidelines.

Sorry I have only just seen these. I can assure you, I am not a troll. There are reasons I was not told about the other assault was because of the fact that relations between me and my family are extremely strained, and have been n/c with her for about two years on and off. Also she has form for making things up, but obviously the police took her complaint down. I rang the police station yest and they said they are sending someone round this Eve. I am finding this whole situation extremely difficult to deal with right now, and its a mammoth effort just to get out of bed in the morning. Thanks to those who have been supportive.

I'm listening x

Even if I dont have much to say sometimes just checking in so you know I'm still reading and thinking of you.

I hope the police treat this appropiately when they come x

Op, keep going as you are. Every day you will heal a little more.

Thanks violet and buzzard. Physically I look a lot better, but mentally I seem to be going a bit to pieces. Just have to wait around this Eve for the police to 'turn up'. Yeah, like they did last time... Feeling rather emotional and fragile. But thank you again anyway.

I'll be thinking of you complete (think you should name change BTW, that doesn't suit you at all)

What approuch are the police taking? They don't believe you assaulted him do they?

vince - IME (not personal, but a family member) - if the police believed the OP had assaulted her P, they'd have been round like a shot to arrest her.

Hi OP. Hope the police did turn up this evening and gave you some good support. Have you considered getting in touch with a support organisation like Women's Aid who could help you with what to expect?
