My son’s father was extremely abusive towards me for 9 years. A few instances I thought he would kill me. I have too many horror stories. Anyway, We parted ways after our son was born. He left us when he was a few weeks old then demanded to see him which meant the abuse started again. Even though we didn’t live together it would happen at drop off.
When my son was 1.5 years old I met my now husband. Since we have been together there’s never been abuse from my ex. He was actually living 8 hrs away for the last 4 years. Now, he’s decided he’s moving to our city. I’ve always been the sole and legal guardian just never legally documented. I don’t have any legal proof of his abuse either. But he’s supposed to be here in a few weeks and I’m terrified. My anxiety is skyrocketing. I feel so unsafe and yet he’s so charming that no one would believe he’s the pos he is, including my son.
I am just venting because I’m scared and I don’t think the people around me even understand the extent of the abuse.
I wish I never let him in my son’s life.
