My boyfriend is physicaly abbusive i know this bc He broke his moms ribs, hits her, threw a plazma tv at his 12 yr brother [hes 15] and beat up his dad so bad the cops came and was prod of it. so far he never hurt me ever. idk if he knows i know stuff like that about him but we never talk about it. My friends say hes also emotinaly abbusive. i dont think so but is he?
Whenever i tell him how i feel about somthing about 'us' when im angry. he doesnt respond. for days. even weeks. till im like okay im sorry i overreacted [evn if i wasnt] then a week l8tr he'll text me hey and pretend it never happened. he always iggnores it. i've cried over him so many times, i dont think he knows but whenever we have a prob he stops talking to me till i say sorry for even bringing it up. One time i think he knew i was crying. he didnt do anything about it. Just avoids me for awhile. normaly even when i say sry he doesnt contact me till a week l8r. his friends say he does it 2 evr1.if he doesnt want to deal with somthing he wont. so its not just me.
hes not emotinaly abbusive right? i mean he just doesnt want to deal with it not trying to hurt me..right?
ADDiCT3DTOHiMx answered Friday May 2 2008, 6:20 pm: Wow. This is a tough one. It seems like he might have anger management problems. When he's home and has a issue, he takes it out on his family. So whenever he has a problem with you, he knows he has to stop talking about it and avoid it to make sure he doesn't hurt you. Does that make sense? I'm not sure. But I don't think he is emotionally abusive to you at all. He just needs to learn to deal with his problem and not run from it, or take it out on anyone physically. Good luck with him. If it gets to much to be with him, then leave. Never stay in a relationship if you are afraid of being abused. Always get out before it's too late.

And no, he isn't trying to 'not hurt you' by ignoring you for weeks. He is showing you he doesn't really give a damn about how you are feeling, and simply doesn't want to deal with any of your unhappiness. That isn't abusive necessarily, but isn't loving either.
Someone who can't stand by you and support you when you are unhappy, is someone who isn't really in a relationship with you at all.
This guy is clearly not ready to be with anyone. He has a problem with anger and a refusal to commit or respect you. Stop the crying by getting rid of him. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
