Okay, so me (18) and my boyfriend (27) have been together for just about a year. It’ll be on the 26th of this month. Well, let me say that the first year of our relationship was a complete struggle. From insecurities, to trust issues, to jealous babymoms, Yeah the whole freaking 9 yards. Well lately, we’ve been having little tussles back and forth, and that was like the calm before the storm. Yesterday, we got into this major blow out argument. Long story short, it got really physical. I punched him in the face, he pulled my hair. He had scratches on his face, I had bruises on my leg. Well, when I’m trying to jump out of a moving vehicle I can understand someone trying to keep you in the car. But WHATEVER. Anyway, both sides of the families know what happened, but you know to each his own and they’re sticking by their blood. Our families are completely against us being together and my family hates his guts. As does his family hate mine. Well, guess what. WE DON’T CARE. We are in love with each other and we have both agreed to change and if it doesn’t then we take it from there. But we both know we can’t let each other go and of course everyone makes mistakes. Abuse is not okay, and he didn’t hit me or punch me he was trying to keep me in the car and defending himself. My family doesn’t see it that way. What am I supposed to do when they don’t approve of the guy that I’m in love with and am determined to spend the rest of my life with?
