Me and my boyfriend had a fight . We didn't talk to each other for a few days. Yesterday, I entered my house and I saw him there, sitting on the couch, waiting for me (he has the keys). He was clearly drunk . I told him to leave , but he wouldn't . He then started sexually assaulting me. I told him to stop but he wouldn't so I slapped him in the face. He then became really angry and hit me back (much harder) . I stopped fighting it and let him have his way because I got terrified . We had sex but now I feel bad and I don't know what to think about him.

We haven't talked since then and I don't know what to do . I have feelings for him but I can't believe he hit me so hard.

I won't go to the police because I see it as a waste of time . There is no evidence that I was sexually assaulted .

I still have feelings for my boyfriend. Do you think I should give him a chance ? Talk to him ? What should I do ?

Dump him. I'd press charges but that's me.

You need your keys back.

Get an order of protection against him.

Then....take some time for yourself.

And give your next key set to a gentleman.

Go to the police.

Why would you want to be with someone who treats you like you have no dignity.

If it happened once, it WILL happen again.

No. Leave. Now. There are no second chances when it comes to being hit. You need to leave for good. No communication, nothing. Just Get Out of there.

You need to report it. I will repeat this again.. you NEED to report it.

A terrible precedent has already been set... he can assault you and get away with it. Even if there is no evidence, a report begins record of a history of abuse and is enough for a restraining order. Its not a waste of time...

Much like domestic abuse between a married couple.. it will not stop until you do so.

I've said this several times in other threads. As a person who has a history of temper and anger issues (never laid a hand on my wife), I have come to realize over the years that is is IMPOSSIBLE to share one's life with another human being until you have accepted and addressed those issues.... As far as I'm concerned, he has already crossed the line by hitting you and sexually assaulting you. The sexual assault is not about sex.. its about control and dominance.

I understand you have feelings for him... we often don't get to choose who we have feelings for... BUT you get to choose who you share you life with. Respect yourself.

Unless you want a life full of more of the same DUMP HIM and find someone who values you and treats you the way you deserve to be treated....You may care for him but his actions prove that he doesn't feel the same....When he sobers up he will grovel and apologize but if you believe his apology be ready to repeat this day over and over again.....Don't go down the road so many before you have gone. You will find somebody else to love and wonder why you even asked what you should do.....
