Death threats from my ex partner.

So, it's not been nice, he was emotionally abusive towards me, he used to always compare me to other girls for battle scars on my body, he used to always say things that he knew would make me hate myself, ( which it did and he carried on).
I didnt leave because, I loved him and I just thought he'd change, but my friends kept saying to me no he won't change, etc but I thought they were just being annoying, but now I wish I had listened to them for when they first saw the signs of his abusive behaviour.
It's been a challenging time, with him etc because he used to start of with yelling at me, and then apologied saying I love you and then said I'm sorry 😞 but I know he didn't mean it, so I just froze for when he just used to shout and yell at me for nothing, I once walked down the stairs at he literally said get the fuck out of my life, you horrible bitch.
This past 2 years ( I think!) Has been the worst, he's gotten worse and worse, obviously I'm not with him anymore, but he just kept saying oh im sorry I just got problems please forgive me, but then he had the guts to then slap me, which I reported to the police but they didn't do anything, because apparently nothing was going on and apparently it wasn't a domestic violence, which it was and I tried telling them that but no they ignored me.
It got to a point I can't remember the date that he came home from work, and he literally shoved me, and I told him I've had enough, like leave me alone, he left eventually, and I never heard or saw him for about 2 weeks before he then messaged me saying, you won't get rid of me that easily, he started saying I'm gonna kill you, etc and I did not know if he was being serious or not, but I just don't understand why I deserve it.
I've emailed the police directly, and hopefully I'm safe
Sorry for the vent I apologise

I'm so sorry to hear that about your ex treating you like trash and giving you threats you don't deserve that at all and it's ok to vent and hopefully this time the police do something about it because that isn't right at all sending you good luck!
I am so so sorry you have had to go through and put up with this. There are lots of types of domestic abuse and just because the domestic abuse you have had to deal with has been mainly verbal and mental, does not mean it isn't worthy of being recognised as such. I really hope the police take this seriously and if they don't, there are helplines you can use, such as Refuge National Domestic Abuse Helpline (08082000247). Please don't blame yourself for not leaving sooner, it is such a difficult situation to be in and they manipulate you into thinking they will change, it is not your fault at all!
Wishing you all the best
Thanks
Thank you! I'll update you all, but I'm just so anxious haha 😄!
They seem to care, I'm on phone to them now. But I hear where your coming from!
But im really upset.
Also just a note that I removed the second half of your post Ellie, as it's important not to advocate violence for others, even if you're not being 100% serious.
@Leila aware I already dropped you a PM but wanted to say here that it's good to see the police taking this situation seriously, and that you have that support around you.
Keep us updated on how things go when you see them tomorrow.
Hey Mike,
Thank you! You're truly amazing,
Leila
As everyone else has said I am so glad this is being taken seriously! I'm thinking of you, thank you for keeping us all updated

Thank you x
It's reassuring to hear the police are working with you to move this forward.
Hey Mike,
Makes sense, I just thought because of everything I'm supposed to feel a certain way, but I just feel alone aha, but I know I'm not!
Yes, will be this week, Wednesday! So, not long but I'm not worried but just want him out of my life as he's caused me so much grief, that it's painful to fight you know?
Thank you for carrying on supporting me,
Leila
Just a little mini update, I have the statement tommorow, I am of course nervous ( just hope I don't break down lol ), but I feel ok
No, because I got no one around me who can come with me, so not really.
