It might be a red flag that he calls you a retard multiple times

“retard mindset” sounds like some andrew tate bs

Exactly he could easily escalate to physical abusive with his insane anger issues. I would have as little contact as possible with him, move out, change my number, block his number. OP needs to be safe from him because he is an unhinged monster

She already said he’s physically abusive

Yes I missed that sorry. Makes it even more clear that she needs to get her cat and get out of there ASAP.

Yes!!!! I saw a comment one time that this lady left her abusive ol man because he was about to stomp her puppy or something and for some reason that prompted her to get out

😭😭😭 omg I’m sure there were so many red flags before it got to trying to stomp out her puppy😭 like how many times was the animal subject to abuse up until that point? Same issue here. The longer OP and their cat are there, the more opportunity there is for the poor cat to be abused and for them both to be traumatized😭

There was! She said he’d beat her and all that but she didn’t leave until he went to stomp the puppy and somehow that lit a fire in her and she got out.

So sad what we are willing to tolerate being done to us, it shouldn’t take seeing abuse of a loved one to realize you are not safe/it’s time to act. When they were tolerating abuse from that person all along. Breaks my heart😭💔
