I filed a restraining order against my now ex for punching me. The police made him leave, per my request. He is now homeless, but he should have thought about that before he put his hands on me. Abuse is not ok, one time leads to multiple times - sometimes death. I don't want my guilt to allow him back in my home. (yes, my home not ours - we were about to buy a home together.) My intent is not to "bring him down" - but there are laws and he needs to understand that he can not punch someone no matter how angry he is. Now I have to go to court to make the restraining order permanent. Do I trust that he will just leave me alone and keep it temporary and allow him to get on with his life or do I make it permanent and get on with my life.
