I’m so fucking tired of people telling me to “just leave” my abusive boyfriend, as though it were that easy. You don’t think I would if I could?

I’d be homeless if I left him, I’d be in constant fear for my life if I left him, and he’d release awful videos of me if I left him. I’ve genuinely tried to leave before and he’s done stuff to physically stop me. Tbh in some ways I’m glad he stopped me because I don’t want to be homeless, dead, or have my life ruined with those videos.

I’m so sorry that is so horrible. Did he isolate you from your whole support system? can you call the police?

You can get restraining orders. I got one against my abusive ex

I never really had a support system to begin with tbh. I’ve already called the police twice, and both times it just ended badly for me. I was accused of false reporting, told I’d face charges for abusing police resources if I did it again, and then I was left alone with him and it was terrible.

If I managed to get a restraining order I’m still homeless, without any of my stuff, and he’ll release those videos

Both of those. His family is insanely influential in the area and he told the police I was acting crazy.

Are there any shelters or stuff? Do you have any family at all you could stay with?

but try and get the restraining order. it’ll make him go to jail for 2 years if he ever contacts u, is in ur vicinity or does any sort of stuff like that. Plus, blackmailing someone is a crime. what he’s doing isn’t legal. Plus, with a restraining order at least u won’t have to be scared while u figure out next steps

I can’t get a restraining order, if I do I’d be homeless. Unfortunately I live in bum fuck nowhere so there’s no shelters nearby. Stuff with my family is complicated.
