Uncle PJ agony auntDo not, under any circumstances, get back with him. He is an awful person and has treated so badly. It's not unusual for abused women to want to remain in their relationships.

This is because you feel that you have nowhere better to go and that no-one better will develop feelings for you. This us due to the constant put downs by him that has caused your self-confidence to take a battering.

Why you believed him when he told you he didn't do anything to get his restraining order is slightly perplexing. But love can do many things to people and unfortunately it made you believe every word he said.

What you need to do is tell yourself that you are much better than him and deserve someone who will treat you right and as you should be treated. No-one deserves to be abused and neither do you. You need to believe that you are a great woman who can live without him and you need to get support from your friends and family.

He never cared for you and that has been shown by how quickly he has moved onto his next 'victim'. I do feel sorry for you and if ever gets too much, don't be afraid to seek professional help. There are many people and charities that do their best to protect abused women and they will help you if it becomes too much.

But you now need to try and move on, enjoy being a parent if you keep the child and you will find someone who will treat you properly at some point. But you mustn't go back to him even if he comes knocking. Good luck, I wish you all the best in getting back on track with your life and hope you begin to enjoy it again.
