OP here.

It lasted about 20 minutes (or more). I was afraid (always afraid) that showing up would escalate things to the brink. He likes to push me and loves playing to the crowd.

I did run out in my slippers to a police car I saw and asked about the situation. The guy was so dismissive of the threat. Just like the guys from the DV call, until they got here and took one look at him. The biggest of the bunch said, "I'd hate to take him down." and everyone nodded in unison. But, that only happened after a tearful me sat and explained and pleaded that they had to do something. I put them through the scenarios of him walking too close to me and blocking doors, clenching and unclenching his hand, threatening to walk into our sleeping children's rooms.

I called a law-informed neighbor and asked about what to do. She DID NOT say call the police immediately, she went and got the badge number of the guy who blew off my concerns, promising to follow up re sensitivity training.

The crazy-making of an angry and carelessly abusive ex is having it taken seriously by the law.

I asked an attorney if him cutting her hair the way he did constituted assault. He said is certainly did for me, but not sure about how the Court would see it.

I wish I lived in a very simple world. The PPs who are attacking me, like 23:06, I'm not even mad at you. I just think you live in situations of such comfort that the constant ongoing fear of what your ex may do next, isn't anything that crosses you mind. Good for you.

My situation is different.[/quote]

THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. [/quote]
