Quote: He said if I called the cops on him he'd say it was all my fault (I.E. I swung on him first, etc.) which is simply not the truth.
Oh, right. So now he's JUSTIFIED to hit you? What a piece of garbage. Emily, even if you pushed him to the ground he STILL can't hit you. Period.
Quote: I know I should probably file a police report but then everyone in town will know that I got beat up. . . . I'm just scared about the whole town talking about me.
Um, the 'whole town' isn't living YOUR life, nor is the "whole town" doing anything to help you stay safe. You need to take care of yourself and forget what others pitiful thoughts might be. They are losers if they get off on your suffering.
I'm glad you did call the police! YOU are a very smart and brave woman!
