If I am reading this correctly your boyfriend threatened you with a knife. That is an Assault with a Deadly Weapon (ADW) a felony charge if he was close enough to you to use it and you feared for your life. If this is correct you need to contact the police. If you can't do it by phone uses the computer you are using to contact us then delete the Email sent file.
Next go to the following website:[Link](Mouse over link to see full location) This is the Hose of Ruth. They are specifically designed to help battered women and children. If you can call their hotline. If you google House of Ruth you may even find a House of Ruth in your home town or close by. Call that House of Ruth for help.
Do you have a cell phone? If you do, Text or Call someone. Whenever you have a few minutes to yourself do so. Whether it's going to the bathroom, taking a shower etc. I see you used the computer to seek advice, If someone close to you has an email account, EMAIL THEM. Contact the local police department through email if you have too. Let someone know, There is always a way out even if it seems to be the worst of the worst situation. Remember, Once you leave you are one of the lucky ones. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
