What if my boyfriend uses me as a punching bag?

My boyfriend is very physical sometimes, most of the times whenever we have a fight. What should I do. Please don't say I'm stupid to have a guy hit me and not do anything about, I love him so much but I know he lets his TEMPER control, sometimes I...

think he wants it to. Right now, I have a swollen eye, soar body aching shoulders and a a long scrape over my swollen eye, What can I do???

Well if you don't want us to tell you the truth, then don't post.

You might not WANT the truth, but you're going to get it from me.
LEAVE HIM.
I know you might love him. But he hits you.
Is that showing love back?
If you like getting beaten then stay with him.
If you want to feel safe, leave him.
It isn't only his temper.
That's probably just the way he REALLY is.
And you've just never noticed it.

...they say love makes you blind. Makes you wonder why, doesn't it?

...too bad it doesn't make her NUMB also.

i'm sorry if u don't want to admit it or not, but u're making exuses for him..leave him unless u want to fight him every now and then...leave him

Get out of that relationship NOW!!!

You ARE stupid...

For having an abusive boyfriend, AND for asking advice but disallowing the ONLY OBVIOUS ANSWER. So why even ask? You KNOW you should end the relationship, and report him, everyone else does too. Its hilarious how you try to 'sugar-coat' the fact that he BEAT YOUR A*S UP. You have a swollen eye, cut brow, your whole body is battered bruised, but according to YOU, he's just 'very physical sometimes'

This indicates a DANGEROUS problem for you. He has beaten you down psychologically too. Now you have (or always had) a submissive mentality. So, there are only TWO options. You END THE RELATIONSHIP... or...

Just stay, and let IKE do what he does best...

First of all don't call me stupid bcuz you don't know sh*t about me. You've never been a relationship like mine, u've never experienced what it is like so how the hell can u advise me about something u have not experienced personally, ur just talkin from the top of ur head. He wasn't always like this, really he wasn't I don't know what's wrong. It's not like he comes in every day and beats me, that's not it at all. He's a very loving person but I think something is wrong with him. Our fights are from arguments, like we have a really intense argument and then it eventually leads to a fight. It's not like he just hits me boom, just like that. But I don't know why he does and I know that it's wrong I'm not an as*. I was never the type to take stuff like this from a guy but I love him and inspite of everything I know he loves me, something is just different about him now. The person I fell inlove with over a year ago is not the same person I'm with now. I don't wanna just leave him bcuz we're going tru tough times and difficult problems but what can I do? I know he's wrong to hit me, believe me I do but leaving him is not an option. U don't know me, so u wouldn't know wat my life was like b4 him, (that was no life) I have left him before but it just adds more pain and misery. I've asked him to stop too, one time I remember we had a really bad fight and it was so bad much like this one that I told him it was over right on spot. But after falling into his trap again I reconsidered. He went down on his knees, with tears flowing down his cheeks and begging my forgiveness he promised he wud never do it again. Boy was I dumb, we had a fight the next day. i haven't spoken to him since it happened and I don't plan to anytime soon, so for future advisers don't tell me to leave him, cuz I won't. U can tell me anything else, even how dumb/stupid or watever I am.
Thanks Ps. sorry this was so long

you both need help.

he needs to see a conselor for his anger problems...he seriously does...

and you my friend need to go see a docter and make sure no internal damage was done to your body.

then you need to go talk to a professioanl and explain what you felt for him, and why you felt that it was acceptable to let yourself be hurt...

sweetie, it's never okay to allow yourself to be abused...and while you may love this person, and care for them, he has a problem. he is hurting you...and that's not normal.

what if he got carried away and killed you? stabbed you? shot you? I'm sorry, but I feel the need to point out the cold reality of it all...

bottom line...

he is hurting you...abusing you...and you're letting him. it's not good for either of you...

as a man he should never hurt you...ever. and if he loved you deeply he would never raise a hand in anger or hate towards you...

he needs to check himself into a hospital...he needs to talk to a counselor and work things out...away from you...for the time being.

if in the future he has shwon that he has changed then you might want to keep talking with him...until then...stay away...don't let yourself be harmed anymore...
