I tried to bring the violations to upper managment,but to no knowledge would they even give me a chance to talk.They just didt want to hear it.Their moto was go see your manager,well as we can see that,i couldnt do that.
I didnt change jobs,at the time,for i was still seeing the guy at work,and it was our only time together mostly,even if it was talk mostly.I was going to try and use up vacation time next week and change jobs,but seems they beat me to that situation.
Thank you for your response,and yes when i sit and think about it all,seem's like somehting you watch on tv. But, not somehting you actually live through.

Wow. Ouch. Firstly, see a labor lawyer. That will cover your legal issues. You were under duress when you signed the papers, but you may have to sue them to prove it.
Next, check out your unemployement office, and see what forms you need to fill out, and get that started ASAP. Whatever happens, you need to get that done.
Focus on what you HAVE to do, then you can focus on what you WANT to do.
I am not surprised he did not call you. He probably blames you, instead of taking half the blame himself.
You are married right? Then do the right thing now. Do not make any contact with him again. Focus on your marriage.
This question almost makes me think it is a fake. I mean, you were being violated at work, and you changed your address...(with your husband?) but you did not change jobs? This is what puzzles me.
