First time I have called them when my ex was in the house threatening me. I have previously been far too afraid of him. He left long before they arrived. They said the only thing I can do is to get an injunction.
He has been physically violent to me in the past, and I called the police after we’d fought. He punched me and I retaliated. The police arrived, asked if I wanted to press charges. I declined as I thought I was as guilty as he was for retaliating. This was in 20th century. I don’t remember the police writing down much. I hope they can provide me with evidence that they came to our home that night.
It is the relentless lies that he tells that gets me. He flatly denied doing a revolting sexual thing to a friend. When a former friend said he groped her, he denied it as well. I see him for what he is. He’s an abusive rapist. He lives in an alternative reality.
There is nothing I can do without an injunction.
