my boyfriend expects me to be with him all the time, and on the weekend he had some crisps and i ate one and he just flipped and threw the plate at me and it smashed everywhere, and he went off upstairs to the bedroom, so i cleaned everything up, and went upstairs to get my phone, and he tried to hug me when i was up there, so i told him to get off me, and he didnt so i pushed him off. He then said to me 'push me again and ill kill you', as i just wanted to leave i tried to push past him but he grabbed a knife and put into to my throat, then he realised what he had done and told me how sorry he was.

I still wanted to leave so i went to get some of my clothes and he grabbed them off me and said wherever i go he will follow me as hes not letting me leave and he will come to my work and drag me back.

im so scared to leave him, now im scared of him, hes never been like this before, what can i do

Make a very clean, quick exit from this relationship. Tell people you are close to that you are in trouble as well as your boss/ hr manager. Ask for help. Tell the police, ask their advice. If you are going to clean out your stuff, plan it so that he won't be home and get some friends to be with you while you do it. Be cautious leaving and going to work. He might never try anything but you can't be certain. Once you've left, do not put yourself in situations where you will bump into him. Do not commuinicate with him. Stay safe.

Go to work, since he wont let you go any where else. Tell your boss what is going on so he can let you leave and get situated all while this guy thinks you are work. Just get away as soon as you can how ever you can.

celtic_tiger agony auntGo to work, tell your boss that you are scared to go home. Say your boyfriend threatened you with a knife. Call your parents from work and ask them if you can stay with them.

Talk to your parents and then call the police. This guy sounds like a violent obsessive who needs help. You are not safe. Get away as soon as you can.

I watched my father do things like this to my mother for 13 years of my childhood, it has scarred me for life. please please dont put up with it, just leave him NOW!!!! because he might "acidently" go too far one day and kill you. Nobody, not men or women deserve to be subjected to domestic abuse. And that is all he is ....an abuser
