i need to get this out

[Emeraldgreen]

The way you are being treated is NOT acceptable. I'm so sorry that you are going through this. I was going to ask if this is the first time or an ongoing thing and then I realized that either answer should have the same response, you need to protect yourself. I pray that you are able to get some help so you can either get your husband into anger management counselling or some help to get you out of that enviroment.
I know you said you are on vacation. Perhaps this is the best time to get back home while he isn't there so you can pack up and leave. Do you have somewhere safe to go where you live? I'm sure you don't have alot of time to use the computer with him around right now and if you'd like help looking online for safe houses etc.. in the area you live in, please let me know. Maybe there is a place that accepts animals too.

I agree with Emeraldgreen. Also, have you reported this to the police? Is there anyone at home, in Calgary, who can help once you get back there?

Here are some links of some places that you could possibly get into if you decided to go that route. Also, if you weren't ready, they could put you in touch with counselors. Please get help, it's out there for you. I'm praying for your safety.

ETA: I strongly suggest you press charges while he is in the USA. That will buy you some time to get out and home.

If he has been hassling you at where you live, have charges been pressed in Canada? If you have filed a restraining order, and he is breaking it, that can result in stronger penalties.

HE NEEDS TO BE STOPPED AND PUNISHED. CALL THE COPS, HON. NOW


GAYLE - OMG, after all he did before he left...hon, did you get back together with him?

Dial 0 for the operator and tell her to connect you with the nearest help. If they have 911, do that too! Let them get help to you!

What part of CA are you in? There are PTrs there.

I'll PM them now!

Report it and press charges here. Then go home and move to a safe house.
Is there anyone with you to help?
Is there anyone at home who will help?

You NEED to do this.

Go to the nearest police station and tell them. Or go down to the front desk of the hotel, tell them, and have them call the police. Get his ass arrested.

*HUGS* No woman should have to deal with that. Ever.

NO ONE has the right to put their hands on you. Get yourself to the police station and have him arrested. They will see for themselves what he did to you. Then, get yourself to a shelter. One that may be pet friendly. Please, keep us posted. We worry about you.
