Please stop 'attacking the person'.
It is a sad fact of life domestic abuse is real, domestic violence is real. People die from domestic violence.
Dealing with a nutter is completely different to dealing with a violent nutter. So, one poster dealing with DV issues needs to handle the situation differently to another poster dealing with an ex who is merely delusional.
Present your arguments and why, then leave it to the OP to decide what works in their situation, there is no need to start or respond in a way that gets personal. I admit it can be hard to resist and I've fallen into this defensive mode from time to time. Occasionally an OP needs a wake call but not sure I see that here.
What I am seeing here, is crossing the line of what I believe this forum is about.
People who have suffered significant Domestic Family Violence over a prolonged period of time learn - eventually - to stop being a victim and begin fighting back against those who choose to oppress or try to, When I post a question I am merely looking for the correct answer.. advice is good but unless it relates to the question it is useless, Rod is the only person on here who is strong enough and knowledgeable enough to provide good acceptable advice, logical reason and a genuine understanding of the issues raised and gets treated with the same respect with which he deals with others, when you offend someone, or put them down in any way, when your own lack of understanding or bad judgement gets in the way of assisting the person asking for help you are no good for that person and should have the decency to stay away.. but some of you act like narcissists, as a result do you really believe I now want to post anything about my personal life? Share what I endure? Explain anything ? When you attack through your own ignorance you effectively slam that open door shut..
