I will try to keep this short and concise.
Was together with my significant other for 7 years, engaged to marry.
We split, it was messy. No psychical harm just yelling and screaming etc.
For 12 months after the initial split i made contact frequently try to reconcile.
She didn't like this and got a DVO put against me for emotional abuse.
I didn't lawyer up and contest, i was distraught and not sleeping leading up to the court date and just rolled over and accepted it without appeal as i just wanted this whole situation to go away.
Looking back now with a clear mind, this 5 year court order against me probably could effect me negatively in future job opportunities and it just overall doesn't sit right with me.
Can i make an appeal for it to be dropped, or do i just have to wear it now?
