What kind of counselor?

Does this counselor know about your boyfriend?

I don't have any friends unfortunately. Not any close friends that I can talk to anyway. And everyone I know, knows him. So if I talk to someone about it, there's a chance that he'll hear about it and go off.

That's a HUGE red flag that he is crazy!

Leave at once!!!!

This could escalate into this guy hitting you and saying 'sorry' and that 'he loves you.'

Run!!!!

I don't know if there's a specific name for it, but I go see her about my depression and anxiety. She's one of the main reasons I've been able to overcome so much of this depression/anxiety. She doesn't know that he's my boyfriend, I told her that's he's my best friend, but I do talk to her about him.

Why would your parents hate and disown you for breaking up with a guy who threatens you and makes you feel scared?? You need to get away from him immediately. It's more likely that he would hurt you instead of himself.

That kind of reminds me of the worst fight we've ever had. I was at his house, and my adopted cousin that I haven't talked to in years, but had just started talking to me about a week before, started messaging me again. At first when he started talking to me, it was just friendly. Just catching up. But then it turned into him being into me. And I didn't feel comfortable talking to him anymore. So I was just going to let him down easy. I told him that I just saw him as my cousin.

I got to where he would barely ever talk to me. But he messaged while I was at my bf's house. My bf went off. He got extremely angry, took my phone, made me sound incredibly rude, and like I hated my cousin. He made him completely stop talking to me. I was upset. We were both just sitting there, in silence, with him extremely angry. I text my dad to come pick me up early because I didn't have a car at the time. Once he found out that I was leaving early, he escalated and got even more mad. He tried to get me to stay, and I tried to get my dad to turn around and not come pick me up. But he had already made it there.

When I told him that my dad was already there, he told me to make him leave. I tried my best to get my dad to go back, but he wouldn't leave. I told him "I have to go before my dad kills me" (and when I say kill, I just mean get mad at me and possibly yell at me. He wouldn't ever lay a hand on me. So don't freak out over that.) my boyfriends response was "not if I do it first". I started to leave, and he told me to come to him. I hesitated, and he said something like "do you really think I'm going to hit you?" I went over to him and he hugged me and promised that he would never hit me. He told me how sorry he was for saying that and it was just because he was mad and upset.


I'm sorry for all the long posts, but I really need to get all this off my chest and just rant I guess. Thank you all so much for all the help so far. It really means a lot

They don't know I'm dating him in the first place. If they knew I was, they would do all that and I wouldn't be surprised if they kicked me out.

I hope that you can read all this back to yourself and understand that it is BAD.

Keeping info like this from your counselor and your parents is unhealthy.

If I were you, I would not go see the BF anymore, and I certainly wouldn't go to his place.

Yeah, you need to stay away from this guy. Talk to your Dad about this.

Tell them you're in a very bad situation and you need their help.
