Honestly, just looking for prayers or anything else. We found out today our protection order renewal was denied, for not having an ample enough time before it expires. This will cause my father to regain contact with my family and I. He was abusive growing up, manipulative, weaponizes my past, and an evil man. He was abusive towards my mother as well. They split up over 10 years ago, but he remained close contact with her because he enjoys controlling her, etc. 4 years ago it came out that he r*ped her. It was reported, but he was never convicted. In fact, he always seems to escape any justice and has always gotten away with everything. He now has a new family and wife, who just adore him, and they moved 10 minutes down the road. In fact we have even seen him out in public after he moved closer to us. I know he did it on purpose. I of course am the black sheep of my family, and they have framed me as the toxic one for no longer wanting contact with them or contributing into their toxic family dynamic. I know the day this protection order expires he will be contacting me again, starting his manipulation and threats. Like threatening to take me to court for visitation rights of our children. As my therapist describes it, it’s like reliving all my PTSD over again. I guess I’m just looking for a place to vent. If you made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read this.
