FIRST IMMEDIATE TERMINATON due to parent intimidation

[treeholm]

It is so tempting to tell you that you should have kept the money, because you were certainly entitled to it. However, I think you did the right thing in returning it for your own emotional safety! With your husband away, you would be a nervous wreck worrying about whether he was going to come over to get the money and become aggressive again. It is worth the money to be RID of them. He sounds dangerous. At least he has no reason to return, so your peace of mind is what you bought with that money... not really a bad deal in the big picture!
