DP kicked down doors

Posting In AIBU for traffic.

DP and I just had a tiny spat that just exploded. Started with me asking him a question, he said he couldn’t hear me and I repeated 5 times before i got arsey and said turn the tv down then. He did finally and I said it didn’t matter now. From here he just lost it , followed me upstairs, telling me to leave he’s done etc , he’s screaming so I go into the spare room and lock the door. He breaks it down and I told him I can’t leave as all my clothes are in the wash and I’m only wearing a jumper. He says he doesn’t care, just screaming at me and I’m shaking. He asks why I’m shaking and I feel embarrassed so I go into the bedroom and he breaks down that door too.

I have no money to travel anywhere not that I can, only family is strained relationship and they’re isolating with Covid, it’s his house and I’m just a permitted occupant so I have no rights about living here.

I can’t leave at all as genuinely all clothes are stuck in a fucking wash.

If you are in danger from him best get out even half naked, maybe wrap yourself in a towel? then call the police from the road, they can collect you and bring a blanket etc

Dogscanteatonions · 10/02/2021 12:04

You can stop the washing machine. After a few minutes the door will release so just above your clothes in a bag. Gather your things and get it of the house now and can women's aid once your outside. Launderettes are open so go sit in one and dry your clothes while you deal with women's aid?

Dogscanteatonions · 10/02/2021 12:05

But yes it you think you're in danger leave straight away and don't worry about possessions

IAmongstTheWorld · 10/02/2021 12:05

Call 999

Stompythedinosaur · 10/02/2021 12:05

Ring the police if you aren't safe. He is abusing you.

Seedandyarn · 10/02/2021 12:05

Call the police they will likely take him away that gives you a few hours to sort clothes. Call shelter and/or women's aid.

candycane222 · 10/02/2021 12:06

covid restrictions don't apply when you need to go somewhere for your safety

Dragongirl10 · 10/02/2021 12:07

Op this is not safe for you, you must end this.

Put on something of his and go, beg a sofa stay from a friend or aquaintance for tonight and call womans aid.

candycane222 · 10/02/2021 12:08

Otherd will know more but I believe you may also be able to get money to help with travel in this situation

@MaskingForIt
Seriously! Talk about victim blaming.

He is threatening her physical safety and throwing her out of her home, it’s hardly a proportionate response.

OP if you feel unsafe please call the police.

SummerHouse · 10/02/2021 12:18

0808 247 2000 - Domestic abuse helpline

Get out now. Is there a Boots chemist you can get to. Ask for their safe space.

3JsMa · 10/02/2021 12:19

Are you still there,OP?
I would say try everything you can to find a safe place ASAP.
Don't want to exaggerate but if he is reacting in such a way when you have a ''tiny spat'' it will only get worse,not better.It looks like he is quite unpredictable and cannot control his aggression.
Please,contact Women's Aid and the police if you feel you are unsafe and in danger.

SummerHouse · 10/02/2021 12:21

Sorry helpline is 0808 2000 247

PumpkinPie2016 · 10/02/2021 12:33

I hope you're ok OP?

Leave in the clothes you stand in if needs be (chuck a random summer skirt/shorts on?).

Go to the local police station or call women's aid once you are out.

Everyone has rows but his reaction to a minor disagreement is absurd and dangerous imo.

StephenBelafonte · 10/02/2021 12:36

I'm confused - have the police refused to come out then?

Topseyt · 10/02/2021 12:41

You need to leave. Now. You are not safe in that house.

Call the police to help you. Call Women's Aid too.

Itstimetoquit · 10/02/2021 13:04

Op are you ok? Have you managed to get out ? X

babbaloushka · 10/02/2021 14:13

Can you contact women's aid?

Anyonelikemearound · 10/02/2021 16:14

Just so I don’t worry anyone I’m okay. I’m still here.

tropicalwaterdiver · 10/02/2021 16:19

OP, have you talked to the police or women's aid?

StephenBelafonte · 10/02/2021 16:29

Hope the police have taken him now

pog100 · 10/02/2021 17:02

If you are still there with him, you are not ok. You need to take steps, please.
