A Search For Backup

Wow. It has been a long long week. Thank you all for your messages of niceness on here and Afterellen.com regarding my reactions to the “Not so nice when drunk” girl, and for anyone enjoying that chapter of my life, have I got a story for you….

On the 3^rd December, at about 10pm, I heard some noise outside my front door. Naturally, I was all “What the fuck?” so I grabbed the handy hockey stick, and opened the door, to reveal a nice large empty bottle of Vodka, and “Not so nice when drunk girl”, who I shall now call Jekylla (Jekyll is too manly). Jekylla was lying there, pretty much out of it, and harping on about how much of a whore I was, and that I should never have left her etc. When she looked up at me, she did a complete personality switch (surprise, surprise) and tried to be nice, saying that she had so much to prove to me, and that she’s nothing without me.

Naturally my first instinct was to slam the door and call the police. But…..no. I’m stupid. I invited her in, and gave her coffee, which she spilt all over when collapsing on the sofa. I let her stay the night (I had no option, there was no way of moving her from the sofa) and woke up to find her gone in the morning, and a note with a rushed scribbled “Thanks” on.

So, I thought, leave it, it’s over. Nothing more to be done, hopefully she’ll come to her senses (more fool me) and that’ll be that. On the 5^th December 4am (Yes, 4!!) she turned up again and was trying to break the door down, and shouting obscenities, forcing the whole neighbourhood out of their beds.

Naturally, this time I did call the police. I know it may have been a little drastic, but I felt unsafe again. I feel bad about it, and I know that she will be exceptionally angry, but I have also filed a restraining order. Hopefully that will pan out for the best. I could really do with this not being in my life right now, especially over the festive season.

What do you all think? Do you think the order was too far?

Ooh! Ooh! I almost forgot! I met someone! I think. We’re only one date in (which was fantastic – they took me on a road trip; it was amazing) but we shall see how the next date will go, which is tomorrow, and I will let you all know!
