So my ex, who I inquired before, has lost his mind and attacked me after we broke up. First he refused to leave the place i moved to and demanded money. After my roommates escorted him out, he followed me on the street, pushed, pulled and held me against the fall. He was screaming threats in my face, demanding money that he spent while being with me ( i don't owe him anything, as a matter of fact he lived in my place for 3mo)...etc etc. Intense abandonment issues and lack of self-control. He yelled threats and said "ill make sure you'll pay" bla bla and threaten to slender me, somethign else. I was completely shocked, also i recorded that on audio. When he held me, I cried for help, cried to call the police and he ran away. I walked to the station and got in line to file a report but my phone died so i left. I'm in CA. I have the incident recorded on audio, too. However, later he apologized but still said some nonsense and never contacted me again. Some of my friends advised me to file for a restraining order. However, there is a lot on my plate right now, Im alsoon student visa, i got some neurological issue in my back. I don't know if i should be dealing with this. Since we officially broke up, im "nobody to him" and maybe he will not care to stalk me or anything. If i'm NC with him.I asked iching whether i should request the order: How it will affect me if i get a restraining order on him? 63.2>5What if I don't file?58.5.6.>38It seems that in the first case, i will wait 7 days (Emergency police orders are exactly a week till court date, from what i'm reading). And then I'll be waiting? For what though? And if I don't file, we just get estranged and that's it? At least I don't see any danger coming anywhere, am I right? Thank you

Sounds to me by the readings that it's best just to sit it out at this point. Don't lose your sense of value and don't change your mind about the situation between you. Stand your ground but it doesn't look like there's a need to take it any further - at this point.
