Thanks for your uplifting words, Tamara. I'm in Edmonton ( yuck ). I was thinking of posting his pics on my facebook page so you can all see the stupid man. Many people have seen either the pics or him in person and knew immediately that he was evil. Not just bad - evil is the word they use. Love is blind i guess. Only now do i see it in the pics.

I haven't told you the grand finale of my story - he assaulted me last time i went there for court and i got lucky - the politics at the present time makes the Turks want to show the world they have a good legal system and thus the prosecutor decided to accept to charge him with criminal assault. Warning to women - this only happened because the cafe owner knows the prosecutor and saw me with my lip bleeding right after the assault. Otherwise i wouldn't have been so lucky.

The prosecutor promised me that he would order the police to arrest him at his work and thus bring him dishonor. Court is in May. There won't be any prison but it's enough to have won this small victory and show him i won't lie down and take it anymore.
