I used to be in a very emontionally abusive relationship. He was very controling and I was young and I thought I had found the love of my life. I just kept forgiving him for everything he did. He cheated on me and gave me an std. In the end hes the one that dumped me and I lost all of my friends because I knew all of them through him. I knew for the last year of it that I had to get out but I just couldnt bring myself to do it because I was so enmeshed with the life I was leading and I was scared of what things would be like without him and all of the friends I had. Now he still lives at home, isnt in school, and doesnt have a job. I dont know if he ever even got his ged. My current boyfriend is a million times better. I think that if anyone ever hit me I would kill them. I can be very emotionally unstable.
