Domestic violence is no joke
I found out something interesting tonight. Most of you know what went down with John right? Well his girlfriend messaged me tonight and told me that I don’t have to worry about him contacting me anymore because he’s back in jail with 3 charges on him. He hit her and she had to have stitches and has a black eye as well. *shudder* I saw the pics b/c she showed me on myspace. It opened my eyes a lot to how dangerous he is. I guess he’s facing 7-10, good riddance to him. I hope he rots. His gf and I never got along but I’m trying to reach out to her because people in domestic violence relationships see things differently than the outside and need support I think. I hope she cuts all ties with him though, she said she will and her bruises will heal along with her heart. I hope so.
I’m extremely shaken up over this though. I even started crying earlier because I was warned by SO many people when I was messing around with him and I ignored everything. Hell, I saw him attack Andrea and I STILL wouldn’t accept it. He could’ve had a Swiss Army knife on him and gotten angry at me over something petty and what could’ve happened? I have tears forming in my eyes at this moment worrying… thinking… I’m just glad that I didn’t get that involved with him and I’m safe and have my loving fiance who would never lay a hand on me other than in a loving way. Some women aren’t that lucky but they should be, because NOBODY deserves that.

I’m glad you’re supporting this woman, even though you’re not necessarily friends with her. You’re right, nobody deserves to be assaulted or abused by their partner. I hope she’s all right.

Sounds like John’s getting what he deserved. Nice to see you are trying to reach out to his ex though…you are such a nice person!

Oh no! That’s terrible!! I’m soo glad that she pressed charges against him. I knew a woman who just let it happen and stayed with a man like that for years. I don’t understand how someone can do that to someone they supposedly love.
I’m so glad that you’re sticking by her.

I used to volunteer at a domestic crisis shelter so i have seen abuse first hand. I’m glad that she is okay and that he never hurt you.
