Good for you for reaching out and knowing when you are in a bad situation.The fact that this boy is hurting you physically and he is your boyfriend is horrible. You do NOT deserve to be with someone who does that to you.
A relationship is about love and hurting someone is never okay. No matter what he says to you, nothing gives him the right to hurt you. We are so sorry you are having to go through something like this. You deserve to be with someone who loves you as much as you love them and treats you with respect.
I know it is scary but the quicker you can get away from this boy the better it will be for you. If he threatens or hurts you again, call the police and make a report against him. He should not be getting away with this.
You may not think talking to someone about this is a good thing, but it truly is. You should not be struggling with this by yourself. Talk to your parents, school counselor, a teacher or any trusted adult. The more help you can get with this the easier you will heal. This will be a difficult situation for you, but you will get through it.
