I'm M25, and I was dating a girl that I met through Bumble for 12 months.

During the start of the relationship we went through a honeymoon phase and it was amazing! Then it wasn't so amazing after she asked me to move in with her.

I was living on my own in a nice sharehouse so it was a hard decision to make.

Fast forward to where it got tough. She would often "test" my loyalty.

One Sunday afternoon, I was vacuuming and cleaning the house. A deep clean if we must say. She then came up to me, and said she was just going around the corner to meet up with some guy friend.

I told her that's fine, see you later. She proceeded to leave the house, and sat in her car for about 20 minutes before she came storming in accusing me of not caring about where she was going etc. She said I should be questioning her motives and whatever else.

Anyway, this is where it got bad. I woke up gasping for air one morning and found her sitting on top of me choking me. I pushed her off me and said "wtf you doing". She yelled at me at 3am telling me she had a dream of me cheating on her.

Fast forward further on. If she didn't like something I did at home she would open the windows overlooking neighbours and yell "rape rape rape". I honestly didn't know what to do.

She would hit me with my belt, pinch my skin until I had several bruise marks all over me. She then managed to convince my own mother that I'm cheating on her and that I was the problem.

Meanwhile, i never cheated on her and I was more loyal than most people.

So I decided to call the cops, and report all this. They didn't take it too seriously. But I can imagine if roles were reversed, it would be all over the news.

Now I'm too scared for my next relationship. I remember crying on the phone one day, and that's a lot for me. Because I'm a large guy. My brother picked me up and told me to move on from her, and that's what i did.
