Question Posted Wednesday February 25 2009, 10:21 pm
I really dont know wether this would go under Sex or Love Life. so, here it goes. i figured, since your thing said your a mother, that maybe you'd be able to help me.
OK, first, i should probably tell you, i'm 16 years old and i'm female.
I've been dating m boyfriend (we'll call him "L") for the past year. he's 17.
he's been really sweet... you know... about the whole sex thing, but he's starting to kinda push. and he's getting very...well, he hit me, the other night, when i made him stop, like, taking off his clothes and touching me. its not that i dont love him, you know, but im just not ready. for that.
the thing is, this isnt the first time he's hit me. its happened before. 3 months ago, he bruised my shoulder cause i was talking to some guy he didnt like. 2 months before that he shattered my ankle cause he pushed me, and we were at the top of, like, 4 steps, and i fell. i had ta tell my mom that i fell when i was outside with our dog, cause he's a BIG dog, and has caused harm while playing before, nothing like a broken bone, but some pretty hefty stuff, so it was easy for her to believe. i didnt tell my mom cause L kinda threatened me. nothing serious, he just kinda threatened the other ankle.
i really wanna leave this relationship, but im afraid. i still refuse to have sex, but he's still hitting me, and latly the threats have been becoming more alarming and menacing, like, "kissing isnt exactly satisfying, anymore, bitch, so you better come up with something new, fast."
i dont know if thats a threat against my physical being, or my virginity.
im really really scared and i dont know what to do. im afraid that if i break it off, he might get really angry. i know he has a gun and im afraid he might come after me if i do break up with him.
i dont wanna bring the police into it if i dont have to, and same with my mom and dad, cause i know they'll be pissed that i've gotten myself into this. but it kinda looks inevitable.
please help.
im terrified.
i'm pretty sure this isnt how first love is supposed to turn out. :(
