    your other posts suggest you have a deal of spare cash...

    you need to make some of this available to you (even if there is a charge)

    It is not illegal to open another persons mail unless you intend to commit fraud - this is frequently incorrectly posted:)

    i think there is only mankind for us men everything else is for women.
    I have notice that too and if you do report D/V to the police you get dragged off cos they dont belive you and think you are hitting the woman and NOT the other way round.

    Inform you colleagues at work, especially the ones in main reception and on the switchboard too.

    I went out with a strange woman for 3 weeks, and it did not work out between us (her last relationship involved beatings, needles and knives). Then came the daily emails, then the 6 monthly emails. Then after about 2 years she decided to visit my workplace and walked straight into the office. Coincidence I just happened to be on annual leave that day but in the building, and the office being unaware paged me, but I put them straight asap and left the building.
    GOOGLE it before you ask, you'll often save yourself a lot of time. ;)

    why should you pack your bags and leave? - when she's out change the locks and dump her stuff in bags on the front lawn.

    I added this to the thread on Domestic Violence and Abuse on this forum -

    Domestic abuse is unacceptable under any circumstances regardless of the gender of the target or the gender of the perpetrator. Unfortunately it has been made more difficult for genuine male targets of domestic violence and abuse (gay or straight) to access appropriate support because some groups who claim to offer support and advice specifically for men have links with known perpetrators of domestic abuse.

    If you are a male target of domestic abuse you can access gender specific support from the following website which has no hidden agenda, has the support of the Home Office and is managed by Respect http://www.mensadviceline.org.uk/

    A phone number for support and information is included in my signature.

    I hope you find the right support.
    Domestic Violence and Abuse 24hr freephone helpline for FEMALE TARGETS - 0808 2000 247.

    For MALE TARGETS - 0808 801 0327.

    Free legal advice on WOMEN'S RIGHTS - 020 7251 6577.
    PM me for further support / links to websites.
