Q: Partner threatens false abuse allegations in KY
I'm facing an issue with my current partner who has threatened to report unfounded allegations of sexual abuse to ruin my life after I expressed doubts about our relationship. She claims to have videos taken without my knowledge during role play. We've discussed this, but she becomes hostile and insists on staying in the relationship, which is further complicated as we have a child together conceived three months into dating. I have no criminal history and am seeing a therapist for depression and anxiety stemming from this situation. What should I do?
A: Document everything g with your therapist and keep an eye out and an ear open for anything else that would disprove the false allegations. I would refrain from discussing any of that with your partner and I would conversely act unfazed, unconcerned and like it doesn’t bother you if she brings it up at all. Any info you get should be protected and stored out of reach of your partner. Her threat should put you on notice that it is time to leave and end this relationship but not until you’ve gathered all the data and info you can to disprove her false allegations.
