The best thing you can do is contact the local district attorney that specializes in domestic violence. They can get you an emergency protective order because you're in immediate danger, as the process of getting a restraining order takes longer. Never go anywhere alone with your kids. your da office can also provide services for you to get through it, like counseling. stay safe and away from that loon!

...Hi, No one should be held hostage. Whether he will do what he says or not take this lightly. Where is your family? Llet them know what is going on and also do what
sunnycomet said and tell the police, report everything that has happened with him. I would leave, if there is no family to stay with find a shelter in another town. You can't leave a trail. You can't pack while he is there and argue with him about leaving. Don't pysche yourself into believing that he does this because he loves you, love goes with respect. He is abusive, and he loves to intimidate you. You need to carry mace or hair spray in your purse if he does something stupid use it. But report this man to the police, Men do kill women, some get away with it. Leave him while you can but be smart about it, no announcements. Get a friend that you can confide in, a ministrer or someone who will keep your confidence. They might be able to help as well. Good luck.

The best thing to do is run, call the police and file a report. Get a restraining order against him. This man is a danger to you and your children. If you have family, tell them whats going on, stay with them if at all possible. If you don't seek a woman's shelter. DO NOT STAY ALONE WITH YOUR KIDS. Always have someone with you. This next piece of advice is VERY important so please, follow it: no matter how much he begs, pleads, and promises, DO NOT AGREE TO MEET ALONE to "work things out." Please! If you ever feel you must, make sure its daylight, in a public place with friends nearby. Also, notify your children's school of the situation, make sure that he cannot pick them up under any circumstance. Please, keep us updated.

If you tollerate this, it will only get worse. Don't let him near you or the kids when he behaves like that. Report him to the police if he causes damage and if he threatens you badly. I can tell you this: It won't evolve into a good marriage. You probably will get hurt in a lot of ways if you don't take significant action. Just break the relationship.

Go to the police...this man is dangerous and you are putting yourself and your kids at risk.
Go to a women's shelter in your area.
Run now while you have the chance!
Keep us updated!
