Well, the man who drove all the way over here tonight, just to storm in my room, and stand here shouting at me about how stupid he believes I am, as well as referring to me as the mother of a litter of puppies, for a solid five minutes before storming out and driving off again, has very little in common with the man I say I love.
I had no idea what had set him off at first, until he said something about how he'd told me to keep the kids out of it, and that clued me in. I called my daughter after he left to see if she knew anything. Turns out that he'd told her that his arsehole friend would be willing to drop charges in return for certain concessions, but he wouldn't tell her what those were. When she asked me, I told her.
My son-in-law, upon hearing about the extortion, sent a text to the friend letting him know his opinion about the whole thing. Apparently the manly man went running to my H, who immediately came over to let me have it.
I e-mailed my attorney about an OoP. I cannot imagine I'm expected to just put up with this whenever H feels like dishing it out. I've been told not to engage, because it would be easy to have me thrown in jail again. How is this fair?
I was worried about getting H in trouble over the extortion attempt. I'm not feeling as worried now.
