"So Every Relationship I've Been In Has Been Abusive In Some Way. DJ-Hit Me, Broke My Arm, Pulled Out My Septum Ring, Knocked Out Teeth. Gabe-Told Me I Was Useless, Controlling, Took My Phone Away...etc.

First, it is not your fault. It's also not unusual to have these mixed feelings given your experiences in relationships. It sounds like you care about your relationships and that these relationships mean a lot to you. However, you deserve to be in a relationship where you are treated with respect. Please take a look at the Healthy Relationships Spectrum on the website as it can illustrate and describe healthy versus abusive relationships.

If you need someone to talk with, I encourage you to call our 24 hour hotline at 800-300-1080. You can also go to http://www.loveisrespect.org to chat with a live advocate.
