Am I in a abusive relationship? he takes the lighter and gets close to me and tries to light it spark it. yesterday he took it and put the lighter next to my foot and lit it on my sole of my shoe. then he says oh I'm just playin. I would never set you on fire.


he calls me crazy. he mocks what I say. he calls me s* head. says I'm just playing. he called me ugly the other day. I know that's not true or he wouldn't hit me kissing me. and he said Oh I'm just desperate. thats why I'm with you.

Yes, leave as soon as possible. Go to someone who's close to you, or to a women's shelter. If he threatens you with a lighter again, call 911. Don't contact him, and change your number if possible.

"You gave us counseling without making either one of us feel that you were taking sides.
You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship.
You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before.
You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along.
Thanks so much
for helping us."
