MININNI enjoys breaking the law by stealing cable TV or figuring out how to reprogram cable satellite boxes. MININNI spends hours of his time trying to figure out a way to break the law rather then obtaining work. MININNI spends hours and days online gambling and goes to the casino poker room. MININNI goes on gambling binges and has been known to lose $800 in one night. MININNI spends days being up all night at the casino or online gambling binges and then shows up at my front door asking for forgiveness, at this point MININNI has lost about 20lbs is unshaven, with dark circles under his eyes and begs he cannot live without me. MININNI blames me for his gambling binge as I have started an argument and convinces me I must take him back since he is broke and can’t live without me. When MININI is broke and has exhausted all of his resources he comes to me for help. Over and over again he convinces me I need to help him and he needs me or he cannot go on. Each time we get back together MININNI steals from me, makes threats to intimidate me, and kills my self-esteem by saying “you are stupid, you don’t know anything you need to go back to school, you will never have a stable relationship if you don’t learn with me.” MININNI uses my co-dependence for his good fortune by using my fear of being alone, he often states “if you don’t let me play poker or go fishing I will leave you again, or you will be alone forever if you don’t fix yourself with me.” MININNI often says I am unstable, eccentric, bipolar, and borderline; he uses this to make me think I am crazy and can only get better if I am with him.

Is the question should you get a restraining order? If that is the only way that you can stay away from Minini I would say yes.
Run! Run Away!! And leave no forwarding address.
No RO for him - but counseling for you. You have already answered your own questions. It no longer matters what anyone else says, it’s a matter of when will you have the guts to stand up for yourself. And from what it sounds like, you dont have the guts to get a RO.
