QUESTION:
"I need advice, I'm only 22. I told my newly titled boyfriend (he's had a drink or 12) I was going to make my salad (which was pre-made from a grocery store and single serving) And only needed dressing he came in the kitchen said I'll help. I stated no I got it, he insisted and so on. I just eventually placed it back in the fridge and said I can just finish my toast. I walk in the living room and I heard smashing and breaking of things from the kitchen. He threw the toaster, smashed bottles, tossed everything from the counters. He lost it."

"Speaking as a DV survivor leave before he starts putting hands on you. It’ll be easier the earlier you do it. That’s not the first time he’s done something like that and definitely won’t be the last. The longer you stay the more manipulation and trauma bonding happens and it will be harder to leave."
"Run far and run fast"
"Yes. Run. Also he’ll apologize and say it won’t happen again. It will."
