1: In mid 2005 I met my now ex-wife, #AzadehMoaveni, and within two weeks of the start of our relationship, I found myself in an emotionally, later also physically, abusive relationship with a manipulative, lying and deceptive person. I put up with everything for 9 years, until I
2: applied for divorce in 2014. Right after my application, Azadeh threatened me on a daily basis with prison, taking away the children and public shaming. I put up with it. We have now been divorced for 6 years, but nothing has changed in my life. If anything, things have
3: gotten worse, as she continues with all sorts of lies, deceptions, abusing and controlling behaviour, etc. The only thing that has changed, is that I am no longer willing to accept the abuse that we, the children and I, receive. I have decided to go public, as last resort,
4: as I don& #39;t believe that we should suffer in silence and isolation. We have been in court for 6 years, have gone to multiple #family_mediation sessions, some of which have been really bruising for reasons I will get into later. I understand that Azadeh and other members of her
5: maternal family suffered from multigenerational abuse, both emotional and physical, but I believe that none of this is my or our children& #39;s problem. Azadeh& #39;s parents lived apart for almost 33 years, but tormented each other on a daily basis. Her mother drove
6: her father into alcoholism and a fatal catastrophe. Azadeh& #39;s mother couldn& #39;t experience her self without conflict and the same, unfortunately, applies to Azadeh. She is determined to reach the levels of abuse her mother would impart on people close to her. Unfortunately, this
7: creates a very toxic environment for me and the children. I am aware of risks I am taking here. I am aware of her powerful tribune and public image. But deception, controlling behaviour and lies are taking a toll on us, and I intend to protect us by letting others know what
8: has been going on for years. I also believe that the public has a right to know, who this person in reality is. Her work on Iran needs scrutiny, and I am going to thematise that too. However, to protect the children from publicly discussed issues, I am going to carry
9: this thread on another account. I will make it known here in due course, but that way I hope to provide some privacy and protection to the children, although they are mostly aware of their mother& #39;s issues. I will also tag a number of organisations and people on there,
10: who might be interested in this conversation, as I will discuss matters related to the UK #family_courts, father& #39;s rights, and how to deal with a person who is deceptive beyond imagination, in private and often in public life.
11: People who might be interested in the conversation are @menreachingout1, @ManKindInit, @MBCoalition, @SShaljean, @OnlyDads, @OnlyMums and @juliemalam. If not, please let me know, and I will delete this last tweet and add a modified one.
