I was in an abusive relationship for 3 years. The bad thing was it started when i was in high school. it started by just secluding me from my freinds because he didn't like them escalateing all the way up to physical and sexual abuse. it IS still abuse if you say no. but my being young and stupid and thinking i was in love moving in with him and i lived with being beat for almost a year and half. everyday it was something and when i went to work all my money that i made went tohim for drugs and stuff of his choice not mine. It took a while for me to actually wake up and see that if i did't get out i was going to end up dead somewhere or in jail for trying to kill him. i finally got fed up one night when he was abusing me because his tooth hurt. He had me cornered on the couch witha gun and told me that he was going to kill me then himself. i was so scared. he decides otherwise for now and went to his room i just got up put my shoes on and left. i walked a mile to the store to call my mom to tell her i was through i wanted to come home. well that is enough about my story i just wanted to tell you my story and try to help out some of ya'll with the experience i have on that subject. Feel free to message me to talk.
