In past relationships I have been sexually abused, and hurt by them. I have met someone new and i have been single for 8 months and I feel that I am ready. I know for a fact he isn't going to hurt me because I want to be a police officer in the near future, and he graduates from the academy in november. He tells me I am beautiful, and cute, and smart. How do I keep myself from getting so caught up in the situation and falling too fast because I don't want to ruin this because of how i feel! (link)
Me lady, Drew Peterson was a cop. Just becomes someone wears a badge doesn't automatically mean that they will be a good partner for you. In fact, cops often get protection from their buddies when they do abuse their girlfriends/spouses (there was a particularly notorious case of this up where I live). So you aren't only dating a cop, but the big blue wall, too.

Look, you might feel that because he is a cop he might protect you. I would urge you to get therapy for the abuse you suffered to help ensure that you aren't going to put yourself back in a position where you might get abused again.

Oh, and if your gut tells you at some point something isn't right, it ain't right. Listen to that instinct. It is usually right on the money.

Thank you for your input, but this time I am positive. I have learned to protect myself because I am on my way to becoming a cop too!
