Poll question: Your boss invites you to go wakeboarding....

And you roll up with your boyfriend and notice, oh, look, your abusive ex-husband is there in the truck with your boss, who has kept him on the payroll!

But man, you really, really have been wanting to go out on the boat. Your boyfriend tells you he's not going to sit in a goddamn boat playing nice for four hours in front of your boss, when all he really wants to do is collapse your ex's windpipe, and tells you to drop him off back home.

What do you do? :grr:

my boyfriend should be able to as well. And if he's so concerned for my safety, why does he want to leave me alone?

4. Let's see. She and ex seem to still have the same boss, correct?

Sounds like a set-up by the boss. Red Flag. If the ex was abusive, why would she still want to get on same boat with him? Red Flag. If she doesn't care about him and not afraid, that's a good thing. YOU, however, know he's a dirtbag and it offends you. Red Flag. = Fuck it all, change jobs, go on another boat, get your own boat. Never play nice with an abuser.
