My Boyfriend Choked Me?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for 8 months now. I was at his house last week and he noticed that i had gauges in my ears (i was stretching them but they were extremely small)
He told me to take them out and i said " no, i like them "
He then said "Youre ugly, you know that right"
I said "Okay"
He said " They make you ugly, take them out now"
I said no again.
He then proceeded to get on top of me and grab my neck with one hand to the point where i could not breathe. I kicked him and he let go after about 10 seconds.
No one was under the influence of anything. Keep in mind we are both 16,
Should I let this go? He ended up apologizing and he told me he choked me to "get my attention" What should i do?

Dump him. Do it today. Nobody who isn't a violent, controlling, douchebag chokes someone "to get their attention." Dump him now.

Leave him and you should probably press charges. If he's only 16 think of what he can do when he's 26 if he doesn't understand the consequences. When you do dump him (which i REALLY HOPE you do) make sure that it's in a public place so you are safe and people can stop him if he tries anything.No matter how sorry he says he is, don't take him back! These are the first signs of a boy who's developing into an abuser. This is not only helping yourself, it's also helping anyone who potentially can be hurt by him because he never understood the consequences. Just remember to put your safety first and dump him at a public place (for example at a cafe) and go to the police!

Ohh honey no. You leave him thats a sign of abuse. He might say hes so called sorry, but this can become more severe and its going to be harder for you to leave him. Choking you is simply not acceptable. Even him hitting you isnt acceptable! He had control and he lost it.

This is how the cycle of abuse starts. He hits you and then feels so sorry and apologizes and you can tell he really means it so you forgive him. He hits you again and feels so sorry and apologizes and you forgive him, he does it again and you forgive him. Eventually you feel you deserved it and the cycle will never stop until you leave him. It is never ever ever ever EVER ok to hit your partner. Ever. No excuse what so ever.

Call the cops. Don't let him do anything like that to anyone else. That is assault and you can put him in alot of trouble.
