My boyfriend is making me crazy

[bkd0128]

So my boyfriend and I have been together for two years and we have had our problems but nothing major until recently, we just moved to Florida from Indiana together which has put some stress on us but I feel like we have been fighting more. And here recently I feel as if he has been playing mind games with me like I'll try to talk to him and he just ignores me and I'm calm at 1st but then I get mad and he starts laughing like it's some joke, but it's been really getting to me and I snapped and I got violent with him and slapped and pushed him, I have never done that before and I feel terrible but I feel as if I'm going to have a mental breakdown soon if he doesn't stop with the games, I'm just at a loss of what to do, this is all new to me Ive never been in a situation like this before.

First off, the silent treatment is abusive behaviour.

Secondly though, it does not excuse you becomeing abusive and violent yourself. Once violence has entered a relationship, the relationship is over. You need to leave - either find a flatmate or go back to Indiana where your family and friends are. And access councelling because you know this is not healthy.

 

You can't change him, you can only change yourself. So get yourself out of the poor situation you're currently in.

Need more info. What kind of things do you say to him that he ignores?

[j.man]

Would have to know what you're saying to him. Ignoring you when you're trying to have a casual conversation is very different from not responding so as to not play into a an argument he doesn't want to have.

 

But I agree with agent. You've now set the tone with violence and things generally don't ever go come back from there.

This is a boyfriend, not a life sentence. Walk away before you end up with a prison sentence that you can't get out of.
