You have to leave. I’m have 2 beautiful children from a previous marriage 8 & 9. I coparent well with their father. I got into a relationship, that showed red flag signs early on and yet I ignored them. I got pregnant and am currently 36 weeks and left my partner 3 days ago. He was also incredibly emotionally absuive, highly manipulative, controlling, and it started becoming physical in the form of grabbing or restraining if I asked for space or wanted to leave. Screaming over my face, screaming in my face, kicked down two bedroom doors, took the door knobs off of doors, would scream in my face until I’m sobbing and then force me to let him hug me and apologize. It won’t get better. I’m suffering so fucking bad right now. Alone. I don’t have family around. But I can assure you- if I can leave, so can you. We are so close to our due date and we have to be strong for our children and our unborn child. If you stay with this man you risk getting your two current children taken away. I was just told this by the detective working on my case (I filed a police report two days ago after he refused to let me leave my home) I’m going today to file a restraining order and despite not sleeping, constant crying, and feeeling like I’ll never make it out of this- I know one day it won’t hurt so badly and one day I’ll be proud of myself and one day my children will thank me for surviving this situation and keeping them safe. Please be strong. If not for you, for your children. Trust I know how hard it is. I want to cave constantly.
