(All parties involved: me, my best friend and bf are 22, my boyfriend's best friend is 23 and my best friends ex like 28) This was a very long, crazy, scary night. Friday, i was with my best friend of 15 years (yes 15 yrs) Her and her ex were fighting, so while hes @ wrk, we move most of all her stuff out & into my car. Later on, she goes to pick him up, & drops him off @ hm. He calls her later they argue, (screaming, cursing the whole 9yards!) They basiclly break up. Later that night, we go out....(through out the night, they call each other arguing,etc) we go to the same bar that her ex is at (she goes knowing he's there) She gets drunk, i have 2 drinks, not buzzed, or tipsy @ all. She sees him w/ girls, gets upset of course, she finds out by his friends that he gets thrown out by cops, she gets worried/scared tries to call him, his friends dnt knw where he is, we leave & wait @ his house, she calls him he answrs, she keeps screamin "where the F are u" he finallly gets there.

Answer 1

This is a domestic dispute problem.  You have witnesses of the incident which will help the police determine what will happen.  You may be charged with battery for hitting him, but he would be charged with battery and assault with a deadly weapon.  He would have to for whatever he broke, as would you if you broke anything of his...

Its your call if you want to call the police.  You may want to look into getting an order of protection too (restraining order).

Answer 2

WOW this is an understatement of drama....personally everyone would have been arrested if it were me.  Everyone had been drinking and was involved in a battery (some a domestic battery), some assault with a deadly weapon, etc. However police were not called to the scene to see things as they were or hear the stories immediately as they happened.

Grown people need to act more grown up no matter how emotional or stressful a situation is...you add alcohol to the mix and situations like that have been known to turn deadly.  Next time I would advise being the friend you are and walk away from the situation and take your friend with you until heads are cooled down enough to settle it like adults instead of drunken teens.

Property damage.....well with a story like that it's going to be hard pressed to prove who did what to what with what.  If anyone wants to claim damage or injury after a story like that it's only going to be simple battery one person's word against the others.  I don't suggest giving him any money etc if he wants to pursue reimbursement on damages let him take it to civil court.  If you are that concerned about retaliation then get a restraining order against him.
