Question - (29 September 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 15 December 2012)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and i have been dating for almost two years now. when we first started dating he always wanted to touch me and love on me. later now in the relationship he keeps teasing/taunting me, he pokes me, hits me ( in the arms and legs), he keeps grabbing the back of my arms and stomach which he knows im really senstive about my weight. since we have been dating ive gain around 25 pounds. he says hes just playing but a lot of the time it hurts physically and emotionally. ive said things to him but he just says im being to sensitive or hes just trying to toughen me up. i dont know what to do i want to cry when he does it but he gets mad when i say anything to him. i really love him but i dont want to have sex with him any more, i feel uncomfortable and i dont enjoy it at all. what do i do?

Get out of the relation ship right now.

It will get worse ,he sounds controlling and men like him won't change.

I don't doubt you love him and that's what is making it worse.

He knows that. Your love for him will turn to hate if this carries on, you deserve so much better.

You could end up depressed.

Have you no confidance? Has he shattered what ever confidance you had?

By the sounds of it, you need to be happy.

Life is too short and why waste it on him?

Good luck whatever you decide, but make the right choices x

Rachel O agony auntits not right for a boyfriend/husband to hit you, he sounds like he's trying to control you, he knows that you love him and don't want to leave him so he thinks that he can treat you how he wants. He will get worse the more you let him and will start to do it when he wants something and thinking he can get away with it.

ditch him and find someone that treats you right

good luck x

He hits you on your arms and legs, grabs you and hurts you. This guy is really REALLY bad news. Ditch him ultra quick and move on. If you allow yourself to become his punch bag, the violance will progressively get worse. A good boyfriend is supposed to care, and he doesn't at all. You dont even want to have sex with him anymore. Dump him, get rid of his number, don't take calls, don't talk to him. Nothing. Focus on building up you self esteem again, let your heart heal and find a good guy who adores you. This guy will only hurt you.

I would sit him down and have a serious heart to heart talk with him. Let your b/f know how the teasing and taunting is really doing a number on you both physically and emotionally. If someone really loves you, your feelings, your physical, and emotional well being is top priority. If your boyfriend doesn't stop, I think you should cut your losses and move on to someone who will appreciate you no matter what size you are! Life is too short, you shouldn't waste the precious years that you have on this earth miserable and in pain. Best of luck to you!
