      So sorry that happened, that’s horrible. Is this a situation where you could report to police? Even if they don’t do anything, I think you need a record to get a protection order.

        Nah I ducked both of his punches and managed to create enough distance to run away. So i dont think that counts as assault. After half an hour of freaking out and pacing around my house he came and knocked on my door and returned my water bottle and apologized and said we are all good now and I shook his hand through my window.

        He lives next to me and I don’t want to cause any trouble by getting police involved. I got my dad to come over even though I’m an adult and I’m gonna find a new place to live as soon as possible. I worry for myself but I worry for my lgbt flatmate more.

          Hang on, he threw punches which luckily you avoided, that’s attempted assault in my book. But it didn’t end there, he was pacing around your house? WTF?

          His apology seems a bit of a “cover my ass” policy by him. Report him!!!

      Good grief, hope you are OK.

      As others have said, report it. Do it now, and say you’ve locked yourself in to be safe.
