Aftermath

written Saturday evening.

After a delightful morning at the beach I came home and did nothing that could in any way disturb his Shabbath's observance. I made coffee in the room I am in and that's it, sat down to work.... He gets up from the couch and stands near my door and starts farting in the most loud and disgusting manner possible, and for long as well. So........... I got up and opened the airconditioner (which is breaking shabbath observance that I didn't want to do , but I didn't have much choice since he polluted the air in this room that has no windows with his farts).


Now I am afraid. He said yesterday that he will open de airconditioning 24/7 from tomorrow onwards to bring up the electricity bills I have to pay (he doesn't pay anything). What am I going to do? I feel so sad and upset.... He can do all this and I can't do anything against it because being without electricity (which is what would happen since he doesn't pay any bills) isn't an option since I am working from home on the computer. I cannot stop him from doing it because I also work outside of the house and I love my walks, so he has plenty of time to drive up the electricity bill for nothing.

This is such an unfair country. How in the world is it possible that he can keep on with this emotional violence against me and I can not do anything against it to stop it?? How come I am dependent on his good-will - which he doesn't have? I cannot even sue him for my stuff he threw away (so, in fact, he stole from me) because a wife cannot testify against her husband in this country. I could do it after a divorce but God knows how long that will take.... And, I am sure the 'law' will stipulate some or other restriction then again in where I can not get justice done.

Why aren't there social workers or whatever who can come and look at this and act to protect me from this madness he is terrorizing me with?
