I have a degree in Biomedical Engineering and Psychology from Northwestern University. I finished medical school and completed my M.D. at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. I am currently in my residency for surgery- hopefully to be specializing in neurosurgery.
I want to answer questions on medical type questions. I'm a big fan of Dr. Drew Pinsky on Love Line and would like to help younger people from the mistakes I see a lot of young people do when they come into my ER.

me and ryan* have been dating for about 6 months now. these past two weeks, it seems like he's been hitting me a lot lately. i mean, half the time we're joking.. but he's been kicking me.. we were walking down the hallway and i said something to him, a joke.. and he kicked me in the back of the leg.. i couldn't walk right the rest of the day.. he kicked my other leg yesterday before algebra ended.. and today, my friend jacki was over and he kicked me in the hip (very bony) so i started to cry and all. is he considered abusive ? what do i do ? (link)

I dnn't know how old you are or how old he is. The reason I ask is that some of my research in college was on Human Sexuality and we had shown that some of the paraphilias begin at a young age (paraphilia is like different things that bring "sexual" excitement- you know like some people like feet etc.). I'm not going to go into all of that now, don't worry :).
The best thing that I think that you should do is remember what was his response when you started crying. Did he apologize constantly and just hold you and keep apologizing. Did he not take it seriously? The second thing is to tell him that you really don't like being hit all the time, and find out what his response to that is. If he agrees and apologizes- then things should be cool. If he keeps hitting you and seems to like you- then I would say that this is just a bad characteristic that he has that no one should have to put up with it (he could have picked it from a lot of different places). No woman ever deserves to be abused physically or emotionally. You deserve someone who will protect you not hurt you.
Hope things work out for the best.
Yours,
Arun
