Please, please be careful. It doesn't matter if you were right or wrong when the police show up.

This relationship does not sound safe. You should not have to live in fear of being physically attacked or with the threat of a criminal record hanging over your head because you chose to defend yourself.

Staying with this woman could have horrible consequences. My neighbor was involved with a woman who attacked him and then called the police. She did this more than once. He could have lost his job and custody of his child. She tried to kick him out of the house he owned. Please look out for your own self interest.
