I was absused by my ex boyfriend. He would hit,punch,kick me and throw me down stairs. He would tell me things like I dont have anyone but him,and that without him Im no one. For a while I believed this, but I realized that I didnt need him or his abuse. I was also raped by an ex. I was 16 he was 26. I said no,but he pressed harder against me forcing me to cry and rither in pain.I broke up with him two weeks later. We stopped talking for a while,then we hung out one day. It happened again. I'm am scared of being in a relationship,I scared of being touched,kissed,held,because when I think of that it reminds me of him. Can someone please help me?If so please e-mail me Sagirl2005@aol.com

DEAR SAGGRIL

AFTER WHAT YOU HAVE ENDURED YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE SCARED, FEARFUL AND FRIGHTENED IN STARTING A NEW RELATIONSHIP. BUT TRY TO REMEMBER THAT NOT EVERY MAN IS A BAD ONE.

JUST WATCH FOR THE SIGNS THAT YOU MAY BE GETTING IN TO A BAD RELATIONSHIP AND IF YOU SEE IT GET OUT! YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO BE ABUSED OR HURT BY ANYONE!

ALSO DONT BE AFRAID TO TALK TO YOUR FAIMLY AND FRIENDS AND EVEN YOUR DOCTOR ABOUT THESE FEELINGS. THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT CAN HELP!
