i've done it, i took out an A.V.O on my now ex. i did it yesterday (thursday) took most of the day, but i feel better for it. i've broken the cycle of abuse.
first of all i'd like to thank everyone here in mylot who has heard me complain somehow about the ex in question, for being helpful and giving advice when asked, plus what ever else you've done for me. i know ive had some good laughs from the discussions here and am hoping for a lot more.
but back to the story, it's taken over 12 months for me to really. get up the crouage to do something about things. i should have done it nearly 8 yrs ago.
it ended up with my son saying to me "is daddy going to hurt you again" thursday morning about 15-20 mins after getting up and i'd given him breakfast. i then phoned the police and organised to meet with one and do the A.V.O. he didn't get charged till fairly late in to the night. so now i'm waiting for court on the 22nd, to see where things go from here. along with oragnising other things.
so now i'm looking forward to my new life with the freedom and indepence i want.
so no i'm not interested in a boy friends at the moment.
thanks all oxoxo

Well, you should give yourself a big pat on the back and be proud of yourself. You are a brave woman. It isn't easy to see a man you once loved for the real person he is. And take this with you too: Be the kind of woman that when your feet his the floor in the morning the devil is saying: Oh! Oh! She's up! Stay with it!

I couldn't find the saying so I had to write it from memory. Lost something. We women need to all be that kind of woman!
That's the kind of woman I like to see get up!

I must commend you weasel. I'm afraid there are too many ladies living with abusing partners, and using the excuse "I love him, and he loves me." Does he abuse his car? If he loved you he would not abuse you. We simply don't abuse things we love. Enough ranting! You have done the best thing possible, and I wish you luck for the furure, and hope when the time is right you can meet a geltleman, who can take care of you and your son in a loving relationship. Mike.

Wow that's great news. I hope that you and your son will be able to get over this ordeal as soon as possible, and your ex will be able to learn his lessons well for good. Women should be loved and taken cared of, not to be a punching bag.
Congratulations on your new life and new beginning.

Good for you! It won't be easy but you'll see...it will be better. You will feel so much better about yourself and you will realize all the strength you have that he has taken from you for so long. You will see how good you can do for you and your son. Just remember that you can do this. You and your son deserve to be treated well. You and your son deserve to be able to live without fear. Take care.
You can be very proud of yourself. I know i am. Now, you will have a good life and you deserve it. TATA.

I admire you for taking action. Even if you waited for 12 years atleast you act now and its still a chance for you to be happy taht is why you do that. You still have a life after that and you are not born to just feel abuse by some who is not worthy of your love. You can start again now, you will live a life now that all you can do is to think of your happiness and of course your children's welfare. happy peaceful life!
