its better to be skint than dead

materiel things don't matter a life does

if your partners violent get out

i will help anybody

who is suffering domestic violence

if they really loved you

they would not put you through this

at least one person dies every week

at the hands of a so called loved one

I found it easier just to run Chris, and never went back, because of the memories,... holes in the doors, that were around my head , broken plates that slashed my face etc,.

Shame/dispair/finances/where to go/even more disruption to children's lives. Hope that when they say it will never happen again - that this time he/she means it.

It is a true saying a leopard never changes his spots - a husband can look at his wife the next morning and gaze upon her battered face and deny he ever did it. Get out and run - you will survive - or better still - see if you can get OH out and change locks/restraining order.

for anyone who maybe looking in and too frightened or worried to add to this thread, pls feel free to send a private message to anyone you may feel comfy with on here, even if it is to just talk.
