Hi my name is simon,
I was a victim of domestic violence via my ex partner and mother to my children.
it lasted for 5 years at first it was a playful slap but then when on to bumps and bruses.
she got me arrested and when the police got a doctor to look at my hand which she claimed i hit her the doctor pointed out that it was not from a hit so i told him and the police and they questioned me but also made me feel small as they could not belive a 5ft 7 woman could hurt a 6ft stocky man.

Simon;
I just want to say how brave you are coming to a public site like this and posting your story.
The horrible thing that happened to you is becoming more and more rampid, so believe it when I say you are not alone.
You were robbed of the trust you had in your partner, and the basic need to feel
safe in your home.Domestic violence towards men is nothing new, it's simply goes unreported, and when it is they're faced with the same attitude from law-enforcement that you were.
It took courage for you to give an honest statement.
Thank You...
