On Saturday night, my boyfriend and i got into a huge argument where he ended up punching me in my head. He's hit me before, even strangled me to the point where i couldn't breathe and left marks all over my face from biting and scratching me. But i thought what he did Saturday would be the last straw and i told him the next morning that i wanted to leave. As i live with him and i have no where else to go i called up the police to ask for a number for a women's refuge. The woman on the phone asked me if i wanted some police officers to come over, to which i replied no. So she took my details and my boyfriend's and told me to go to my nearest police station to make a statement. My boyfriend started telling me he's sorry and that he'll never do it again, he even told me he'll buy me lot's of stuff to make it up for it. I said that im certain that i wanted to leave and he started crying and went into the next room, and i just felt really bad for him. He sounded like he was genuinely sorry for hurting me.
The next day the police called me and asked me why i didn't go to the police station. I said that i sorted things out with my boyfriend and i don't want anything to happen. They told me that they would keep calling me until i did because of the nature of the crime. So on Monday, Tuesday and 3 times this morning the police have been calling me. I ignored all of these calls. Until this afternoon when two police officers showed up at the door. They asked me a lot of questions, like if i was scared of him, if he was controlling, i said yes. And i was told again that the police will take what i've said and make a decision to arrest him because he could be a danger to the public.
Now i've been sat at him crying because i'm scared the police will barge in one day and arrest him. I feel so guilty for reporting him, i don't want him to get into any major trouble. I really don't know what to do. I don't want him to blame me if he does get in trouble, i'll feel like this is all my fault if he's charged.
Apologies for any bad spelling, grammar etc.
