Edit: sorry about title, I'm 22f!

Tuesday night boyfriend and I were out, he parked in an alley because it's free. As we got to the car this tiny little homeless looking guy stepped out with a screwdriver and said something like "I'll I need is a hit, me $20 and no one gets hurt."

Boyfriend sprinted away. He didn't Even look behind him so I was stuck with the mugger and since I had my phone only he rubbed his hands all over me while holding the screwdriver to my throat. He wasn't getting off on it but it was still so traumatizing as he thought I was hiding money in my bra and underwear. I kept hoping that Aiden would be coming back with the cops but nothing. The homeless guy eventually realized I had nothing and just left down the other end of the alley,

I walked around the corner and less than a block away there was two police officers so I told them and all of the sudden downtown lit up and they were able to find the guy in less than 5 minutes.

I rode with the police to the station to ID the guy. Maybe an hour later Aiden calls and said "I have the police are you ok?" I exploded on him telling him that I'm at the fucking police station and have been for an hour. He tried to tell me he was so scared he didn't know what to do and ran immediately to the police. I told him he was a liar because the two police I'd found had been there all night and he must have run past them. After some serious arguing he admitted that he'd gone to hide in a park about three blocks away. I was disgusted. And kept hiding when he heard all the sirens because he thought that meant I'd been stabbed or worse! What in the actual fuck?

I told him to come pick me up and he said he couldn't because he doesn't like cops and is afraid they'd laugh at him. Well he was right because two very cool young cops gave me a ride home and they laughed and joked about him the entire way.

Yesterday he finally called around noon and I told him don't bother were broken up. He then spent the next 8 hours texting me a combination of calling me names, begging me to come back to him, and explaining what he'd done had been the smartest thing for both of us. He said had he not run, his natural rage would have taken over and he would have killed the guy. Suuuuuuurreeee....

My question is how scorched earth do I go in this breakup, let him have some dignity or do i blow up his shit?

Tl;dr: boyfriend left me during a mugging. Do I ruin his life in rhe breakup process?

Holy shit! Had no idea This would blow up! I'm in the lab all day so I'm just catching up at lunch. I'll try and respond I promise.

edit 2: guys I'm floored by this response. I have almost 1700 unread messages in my inbox and feel like I missed out on the conversation when I was at my internship today. I honestly don't know what I am going to do. Haven't heard from Aiden since last night so I hope that means he got the fucking message. I don't know what I'm going to do as a day monitoring aluminum reactions has calmed me down a bit. not sure but this is my biggest reddit post ever, by a long shot

So, I run a dog sitting service. I can take up to 5 dogs at a time and I offer day services and full time care for when clients families are on holiday, ill , etc

6 weeks ago, I was due to take in a little Staffie cross for 2 weeks whilst the owner was on holiday. He arrived on the Monday and instantly I got bad vibes - I went through the paperwork with charlie (the dog)'s human and the owner said "careful though, he's a nasty little fucker" and proceeded to tell me this dog wasn't friendly and was a "pain in the arse". The owner left and it was a quiet time for me so it was just me, my dog and Charlie. As promised I took Charlie on long walks each day.

When dropped off, Charlie's owner gave me a crate and told me Charlie had to sleep in the crate or he "destroys everything". I put Charlie in his crate the first night and he cried all night long. Should also be mentioned that Charlie was WAY too skinny and very very nervous.

From the first night in, I let Charlie sleep in my room with my dog and the crying stopped straight away.

Another thing, after a day or two I noticed that Charlie had a lot of dried up scabs and cuts on his body and face. So, I took Charlie to the vets. The vets had to shave him bald in places and took a look. He saw a huge amount of bruising and open wounds. The vet said it was most likely from being kicked. But, this can't be proven, I guess.

Anyway, the two weeks passed and Charlie was an absolute pleasure to live with. He gained weight and looked much healthier, I made him homemade healthy food and he had tons of affection and loved playing with my dog. It was as if Charlie had never been let outside, he ran out in the garden like a crazy dog and bounded around with my own dog.

The day came for him to be picked up and I was worried how to approach the conversations with Charlie's owner. I felt incredibly uncomfortable sending Charlie home with that man. Anyway, days passed and the owner hadn't turned up. Another 4 weeks passed and he's still not come for beautiful Charlie.

Anyway, Ive decided that rather than report the owner and have Charlie lost into a shelter, I would like to keep Charlie. He has become a part of our family, my dog loves him and he has a great life here. But do I have any rights? Of the owner just turns up, am I able to stop him from taking him? Is there anyone I can call or contact in order to "adopt" Charlie and have some sort of legal power preventing him from taking Charlie?

Thanks in advance, I'm super lost and just want Charlie to be happy and safe.

Ps - this is in England - UK
