Hello there sweetheart. I am not gonna feed you no bs, but i will give you some truth to ur situation. Im Nikki 22, from California, and I have a little boy who will be 2 yrs old on May 9, his name is Darrick. Im a single mom due to the simple fact that his father used to beat the crap out of me, all the way up until the night I went into labor. I met him when I went to College in San Diego, and it wasnt like he was a prince or anything, I just didnt know anyone else. Well he started hitting me 3 weeks after we first got together, and it got to where it wasnt a physical strength that he was controlling me with, because I could hit him back just as hard, it was all in the mind. He would tell me that if I wouldnt of done this or that than I wouldnt of gotten hit. So I always thought it was my fault. He would say baby im so sorry bla bla bla.. Anyhow, he hit me so much I wanted help to get away from him, but everytime my family or friends would come to take me away from him, I always went back. I wasnt ready to leave him. You wont leave him until you and only you walk out that door. I finally left him when my son was a little over 3 months after he tried throwing me up against the wall and poundin me with the baby in my arms. It will 2 years in august. He disgusts me now. I cant stand him. He call sometimes, he says he cares about his son, and he has a new girlfriend, and he does the same exact stuff as he did to me. There will always be someone new for him to hit, but until u make the decision to leave and never look back than you will never be happy. Good luck sweetie, if you need anything at all, find me on here Im one of the experts untiednic if it gets too bad, ill come get u whereever u live in the US and take you and that baby somewhere safe
