Sorry, the thread subject is a little harsh, but I just spent three hours in the ER because my EX EX EX significant other decided to spend the afternoon drinking and then I happened to be his first victim!! So Sorry I have had a cold and didn't go to the store or make dinner.
Hopefully where he is now they will give him some crackers and water!!!!
I get so sick of hearing how our government regulates painkillers and other meds that people need, but they can just pour alcohol down peoples throats!!
I'm sorry for the rant, but I'm not feeling to great right now!!
Everyone try to have a great evening! I'm going to bed to try to sleep, knowing he is in jail!!
((Hugs))
Slick
Slick get some sleep. Thank godmhe is in jail.
OR
Slick I am glad you are home .....
Isnt that the truth.....what you said!!!
You have a right to rant when ever you want or need to dont be sorry just talk or not but there are people here for you.
I know that is not much, but Slick , take care of yourself.
Believe me when I say alchol "changes" folks and sometimes it's for the worst ... I used to drink and party all night long ... Now it just pi$$es me off for some od reason ... Don't know what happened, but I ain't putting my SO through that $hit ...
Took me a minute, but I realized it wasn't worth it ... So I quit ... Somebody gave me a bottle of my favorite "Crown" Christmas (2 years ago) and it's still sittin in the cabinet ...
Slick, I am truely sorry for what has happen to you, it happens far too much and some don't make it out .... And they talk about pk problems!
You have us to listen and sometimes we all need that anonomus(sp) friend that cares .. You have a whole bunch here ... Of coarse people can change, but I'd make them prove it before they ever walked back to my house! It can and does become a dangerous situation ... You deserve better ... Never forget that ... Never "settle"... Life is too short to live in fear of sayin the wrong word or doin the wrong thing ...
That's the very reason I do not drink today, not because I "don't like it" ... It's the way I become I don't like .... My SO deserves better than I can give her and if someone truely loves you, they would feel the same for you ... You are worth at the very least respect ...
We are always here Slick ...

Good morning. Thanks to all of you for the kind words. I really look like I was in a fight last night and lost!! Black eye and split lip! Staying home today!!
Ice, I have even more respect for you!
Linville, Orange Rabbit and Runabout - thanks again!!
He drinks beer 24/7 - well you know what I mean - starts his day with beer at 4 or 5 AM and drinks all day. It's just every now and then he goes on a 'bender' with the hard stuff.
I guess in the past it has been my fault because I didn't press charges. But from what they told me last night at the ER, the police will be pressing the charges this time. I have paperwork to read thru. As far as bail - they didn't mention it and I ain't asking!!!
Again, thanks Friends!!!!!! YOU are ALL such a GREAT GROUP of WONDERFUL people!!!!!
Slick
This is very true Fire ... A real man should under NO CIRCUMSTANCES hit a woman ... The same road that he used to get to the house also leaves the house ... If he feels he must "put his hands on you", he should freakin leave! Period ...
The 1st time "Oh I'm sorry... I'll never happen again" ... BullShirt!
I have absolutely no patience with a drunk....
We love you here ...
Hey y'all except me(warts and all

)....

Hi Slick, It hurts me to hear what you went thru......I am sorry Slick. Keep tending to yourself today and know anytime you want to talk on your thread about anything , well then do it.
A lot of folks that could chime in and give thoughts and next things to do or just listen .....PM someone to talk .
We all love and care for you...
We sincerely do care . A man should never never hit a woman. Period. Like Firs says if it starts it doesnt stop.
None of you being hit is your fault. Please know this do not have one spec of guilt and let him stay in jail
I hope he stays in jail for a long time and is never around you again.
But Slick forget him lets get you taken care of.....
So sorry this happened to you, Slick, and he deserves to be in jail. If you want to talk PM me. Get some rest, too.

My poor girl. What a rotten bastard. it was never your fault. batterers make it clear that u will pay even harder if u press charges.
now, that the LE presses the charges, mandatory, he cannot blame u.
i am so sorry.
anyone whom considers himself a man, does not get inebriated and then make u into a punching bag. they always lie and cry and promise it will never happen again. he will be charming. don't fall for it.
and, yeah, i never drank cuz i saw it made some people mean.
but, its no excuse he hit up hard liquer or whatever he claimed.
there is no reason to ever touch a woman in anger.
u may need an order of protection. call the court clerks. they are wise and they are kind. they will let u know.
be on heightened alert. carry whatever mace u can have. and i mean carry it when u walk to ur car. if u go down to ur basement. there are american defense type places. and they sell, for protection, stun guns. mace.
can u change all ur locks? he is an ex ex ex rite? he has no rite to be present at ur premises unless invited?
then go for order of protection.
i had alarms around my doors when i lived in a bad area. alarms are cheap and worth it for windows also.
i just don't know if this scumbucket is sitting in jail and somehow trying to blame u.
call the court clerks at ur local bar association. ur local court house. ask how to go about obtaining an order of protection. get copies of the police reports. have pictures of ur injuries. document ur injjuries. get in on record from a doctor as soon as u can.
but i want u safe. i believe in a woman carrying weaponry. at least real mace.
God will protect u. Your life has been one fresh hell after another of late. Unreal.
Stay safe for us. But, be vigilant. We don't know his frame of mind when he is released. I sure hope u belong to NRA.
And i pray this jail time will make him reconsider going near u again. But, I would never, not for one minute, be alone with this man again. Not now and maybe not ever. Stay safe.

Men that do that to women deserve to be beaten to a pulp in my opinion. Might sound mean of me, but dammit, they need to learn a lesson and see how it feels to be on the receiving of a beating.
Just make sure you protect yourself the best you can and then some. People are goin' nuts and who knows what they're capable of? You must take care of YOU. Do what Charon has said. She knows her stuff.
We're here for ya as always. Maybe we'll all get together and have a little talk to your "friend".
Be careful my friend.
