  • Thanks so much for all the answers given so far! I shouldve explained that ys parents were and, in their own way, are abusive. His mother used to beat him for the smallest of things. Numerous times, he told me, that his mother would beat him for leaving clothes on the floor, or beat him into submission when he refused to listen to her. Since then she's been on medication, and she's been a much more motherly figure, but his father is one of those people who will hate him for everything he does. His father, for the longest time, believed he was gay and would beat him for it. His father asks much of him and in return, complains that his work was sloppy and haphazard, though it was done by his instructions. It hasn't happened in front of me, abuse from his father, but the signs are evident. He has scars from his childhood and bruises from more recent ordeals. When we talk on the phone and he says something personal, he often sneaks outside to avoid a confrontation with his father if he knows It's something that will result in a beating. I feel terrible for him and I've often felt that he deserves someone better than me that understands what he's going through... Again, thanks for all the answers. They've been a great help :)
