  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I left my husband of 16 yrs about 7 yrs ago because he committed adultery and refused to change. Before I actually "left" him, I met someone online that made me feel good about myself. We met about a year later and have been together since then, until February when i made him get out of the house. He has many past issues, drinks, and is emotionally and verbally abusive, to me and my kids, who are teens. Well, somehow, he has come back into my life, because i thought that he had changed, but i was wrong. He continues to drink, not as often, but says that he has a right to drink on the weekend. He is now living with me and I have no intention of marrying him anytime soon, I told him this the other day. I asked him to please leave again. I told him he can have 2 months to find a place, and he just about flipped out. He told me on the phone that he would kill me first before he moves out again. He always says things he doesnt mean, and i dont know what to do to get him out of here. I care for him deeply, but i refuse to have my kids subjected to his mood swings. Also, i just want to be alone for a while, i know that i should have never let him back in, but he is here now and i cant get him out. I have prayed daily for an answer, and am hoping someone can offer more advice....Thank you

You may need to get a restraining order. He has threatened to kill you. You should definitely be able to get one.

He's technically living there, whether or not he pays rent or helps with bills, so you'd need to formally evict him. The cops cannot make him leave unless there is a legal reason to make him, like a restraining order or eviction. The restraining order should be able to get him out immediately while eviction can take awhile. Who knows if he'd make good on his threat if you do evict him, so I wouldn't take the chance. I'd contact a women's shelter or you courthouse to find out how to get the restraining order and get him out and ensure your safety in the process.
