Nolongertrapped, have you talked to your cell phone company to see about getting those text messages downloaded onto another medium or perhaps an official printout from them that you can have signed by a company representative or something? Heck you could be missing more evidence to be used against him... Just a thought!

Schefflera,

Yes I have spoken with my cell phone company, AT&T. They said that they can give me a print out of my text messages, who sent what to who and at what time and what day. But as far as being able to print out the actual message in the text message, they cannot do unless it is requested by a judge official and usually that is only in cases of serious crimes. She suggested to me that I send it to myself in an e-mail, but when ever I have multiple messages that are all attached, it will only send one through and the rest of the message is lost.

Yes I agree, its very frustrating.

And Momof3boyz, he literally sounds like the same man that I fleed from...successfully. He did the same things, he insisted that he was entitled to both the TV's the play station, the couches (which he didn't get cause they were mine before I even met him). He insisted that everything including the refrigerator that I bought belonged to him because I had told him to give up his storage eight months before I left him. Everytime I begged him to move out, he would do the same line and sinker...you really want to do this? You really want to put the kids through this? This will ruin their lifes. What about Jenny? Whats going to happen with her? You can't fuck her over, she's already been fucked over before"

I heard it all. He would threaten to leave, I would beg him..."PLEASE!!! GO!! GOOD RIDENCE"

And than he would tear up and play "oh pitiful me" and he would say that if I "really loved him I would be begging him to stay, not go"..and than dumb me, I'd be like..."Oh Jon, of course I love you...but I'm tired of you acting like this, I think our lifes would be a lot better if we seperated,"...and than it was honey moon phase cause he would promise to change, yadda yadda yadda.

After I left him he was a complete douche too and he screamed at me in front of Jennifer and accused me of Not Loving her and that if I truelly loved her I wouldn't abandon her like this. And than he made her come talk to me to convince me not to leave him and I had to explain to her that I wished more than anything that she was mine and that she could come with me. But that by staying with her daddy I would be teaching her that its okay for men to treat her like that and I told her that if I ever saw a man treat her the way her father treated me, he would be a dead man.

I hope she remembers that for the rest of her life. Who knows.
