Well let's see, I'm going to get jumped by a bunch of black girls, and one night some guy called to tell me that. So I called my boyfriend crying and shaking and all that cause I'm SCARED! Anyways, he calls the guy back and I was so out of it that I slit my wrist. I know it's not healthy to do and I will not do it again. The thing is, I told my boyfriend because I don't want to hide anything from him. He was so mad at me, he came very, very close to breaking up with me. Well, I promised never to do it again and he said alright but one more chance and then he breaks up with me. Anyways, he couldn't come over yesterday so he might come over today. He said he wants to see my wrist, but he can guarantee he's gonna be pissed when he sees it. But it's really nothing. It's a little scab right now, it's not even deep. It's kind of a double standard though because a couple nights ago when we got into a fight a couple days ago he slit his wrist, and came darn close to killing himself, but he called me back crying instead, which scares me. The real question though is, how do I react if he gets really pissed (because I don't know what the big deal is anyways really...it's not bad and it's the only time I've ever done it.) Sorry it's so long.
Here's the difference, you were experimenting, you have realized it is wrong and have decided not to do it agian. Do you think your boyfriend has figured out the same thing?
First off, you don't have to show him the scar. You told him the truth, you don't need to show him the evidence too. If he gets pissed, point out his double standard and get pissed right back!
This is a dangerous and mean game this boy is playing, although it is rooted in affection and concern for you, that is no reason to simply accept his undeserved anger. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]

And tell him if he dumps you for this hes making a BIG mistake according he cut himself to one time. So tell him it was a one time thing. And he did it to once so he shouldn't get as mad. I understand that hes mad. But he shouldn't break up with you expecially after he did it to. So just talk to him about it and why you did it. If he doesnt understand he just doesn't want to because hes ethier mad at you or just afraid he might have lost you. So if he breaks up with you because of it he made a BIG mistake because you didn't dump him after he did it! well I hope I helped.
