One of the reasons for divorce is the abuse of the husband by his wife. Often, after breaking up, he begins to threaten her or her loved ones with violence. And if she does not know how to behave in this situation, the consequences can be serious.
Intimidation and threats lead to the fact that a person begins to feel fear for his life and the lives of those who are dear to him. He prompts to run away or hide somewhere. But you shouldn't give in to fear. Better to assess the situation soberly and try to solve it.
Reason and motives
Men are very hard going through the breakup. They often take it as a personal insult from the woman. This is where threats of violence or reprisals come from.
Assess the motives and goals of the threats. In such cases, the husband either wants you back, or it is a real threat to you and your loved ones. In the first case, there is no need to worry. Over time, your ex-spouse will calm down and stop pushing you. If the threats are very real, then do not try to solve it yourself. Contact the police immediately. Russian law states that threats of physical harm and blackmail are criminal offenses. The law will be on your side. Also, try to leave your home unaccompanied as little as possible.
What needs to be done
Try to document the fact of threats. Save SMS messages, record phone calls. Carry a voice recorder or camera with you. If your husband watches you on the street while you are alone, write down what he says. In court, this will become irrefutable proof of his guilt.
It also happens that the ex-husband is not limited to threats alone. He can access your Internet correspondence, call details. It is possible that he will call not only you, but also your friends and relatives. In this case, you must also write a statement. There are several laws according to which the actions of a spouse will be regarded as an invasion of privacy. In this case, he faces an appropriate punishment.
If your ex-husband threatens to take the child away from you in court, remember that most often mothers win in such court cases. But when the spouse wants to kidnap him, do not leave the child unattended. Take and pick him up from school, clubs and sports sections. If you are unable to, ask relatives or friends whom you trust. Again, write a statement to the police.
It is important to remember that the main mistake women make in any of these situations is silence. Don't try to fix the problem yourself. When it comes to the safety of you and your loved ones, think about the reputation of your ex-husband or yourself last.
