Ex husband, sam, (who was not physically abusive) was behaving very threatening and abusive. He had a male companion who was also threatening. Sam had uncharacteristically came home during his work day to bring an elaborate game toy to our daughter. He left. I received a phone call from a woman. She was asking fior sam, for a friend. She said the friend had met sam at church while attending for confession. I told her sam is married. She apologized and said he had told ber friend he was separated. She said her friend would not want anything to do with him had she known he was married. Then I found out sam had been with girls at his friend’s home. I was devastated. I told him I wanted a divorce. I met with a female attorney. I had given her my history and his. Later I was going to take our daughter to lunch. She asked where her dad was. I reluctantly explained we are going to get divorced. I was worried she would be upset. She began screaming he beat you! I saw him beating you in the bathroom. I realized I had no reported the beatings to my attorney. When i was preparing to go to lunch, my daughter was waiting somewhere with someone. As I began to leave i was confronted first with sam’s male friend, then by sam. They indicated that they would be waiting for me. I was very afraid. Then I asked a male friend of mine, if he would accompany me to meet up with my daughter. He said he could temporarily leave his convenience/gas station typr business to walk with me. He then also went to lunch with my daughter, the woman who had been waiting with her and me. When he returned to his shop it had been ransacked. I felt responsible and guilty for having asked him to protect me. I was considering giving him $1000 to help cover his losses. Then I was with sam. He was explaining how he had much money in his retirement and investments. He was complaining that I would be expecting to be awarded some of his money.
