Have you even found yourself in a very dangerous situation for you or someone else?

I know this is not a story you can be ready to talk but if you feel like sharing...how did you react? No judgement here, ok?

The ex came home from work and he wouldn't look at me and seemed wild eyed and crazy. I don't know why, but he marched right upstairs to our bedroom and I could hear him getting something out of the closet. I heard him go into the bathroom, and I crept up the stairs to peek at what he had been doing and I saw he had his shotgun out and it was lying on the bed.

If you had seen the look on his face..and I did..all I could think of was that he was going to kill me and my son and then kill himself. I ran into the bedroom and grabbed the gun. I ran back downstairs and I told my son to get out of the house, to stay out in the parking lot, and not to come back in until I came to get him.

Then I locked myself in the downstairs bathroom with the gun. I started to shake like a leaf. I think I was in shock. The ex came downstairs and started pounding on the door and screaming for me to give him his gun. I wouldn't open the door until I could hear from his voice that he had calmed down and sounded more sane.

When he finally sounded like a sane person, I opened the door, gave him back his gun...and he told me he only got the gun out so he could show me how to load it. Bull.

Then he told me the Iranians were in the United States, and that we had to defend ourselves.

Apparently his plan had been to load his gun and shoot Iranians from our condo windows as they swarmed around in our parking lot.

I am almost positive he was on drugs.

@4meAndyou My god! I would also be very scared. The single idea to have a gun ar home, it already scares me as hell but I’m not in the USA, so it’s not easy to understand it for me.

You were very brave grabbing the gun from him and putting your kid safe. :-)

Care a lot of yourself and your kid. Drugs are very bad. They can make of your ex a person without control. 🤗

@twistermind Thank you for your kind words. The ex is no longer with me...for obvious reasons, and we are as safe now as it is possible to be in this world. 😊
