Pff, reminds me of my ex. She'd block the door with her whole body if I wanted to leave during a fight (usually to take a walk around the block to cool down) or she would just grab my ankles and refuse to let go. Once I managed to escape, and ran. I called my dad to pick me up somewhere. When I saw him I quickly entered the car, but before we drove away, she ran toward the car and burst in.

After I moved into my own apartment and broke up, she'd appear uninvited. I'd let her in out of pity but then she'd create a drama and refuse to leave. Once I just forcefully removed her. Then she texted me that she got sexually aroused by me kicking her out forcefully and wanted to have sex.

I wasn't the best boyfriend either, but I think that physically obstructing one's freedom to leave is definitely abuse. It's horrible and I hated it so much.

Technically, blocking a doorway to prevent someone from leaving under their own power is a degree of kidnapping (like how we have 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree murder)
