Playfighting

AlwaysSunshine81 · 24/10/2018 09:21

My boyfriend keeps saying ‘do I want a fight’ in a jokey way, I don’t.
Sometimes he will start tickling me but it’s always really hard and hurts and sometimes I get bruises on my legs. Last night he tried to punch me and kick me (but pretending but he did kick me once)
When I tell him that’s enough he doesn’t get it and carries on until I end up getting really moody and then he finally gets it.

you need to end this OP... I used to have a BF who would hold me down with his entire body weight and tickle me until I was in tears from the pain and he would laugh and laugh at my despair... he thought it was just 'having a laugh' ... just reading your opening post left me feeling raw .. please.. end this Flowers

I actually thought to myself last night he’s going to have sex with me regardless

Never see this man in person again. This is what break up texts were designed for.

A woman's "no" is not the start of a negotiation. Be single until you can find a man who understands that.

Non-consensual violence is just violence.

By all means, if you're both equally turned on or having equally as much fun as each other by playfighting, then by all means, do what floats your boat.

But if one partner is not okay with it then it doesn't happen. Period. Flat.

There are plenty of guys out there who will hint that they are in the mood by nibbling on your earlobe rather than punching you, kicking you and ripping your tights off. And when you say "Sorry hun, not in the mood right now" then most of us will smile and give you a hug and a kiss and accept that.

He absolutely sounds like someone I wouldn't want to be anywhere near. I'd be scared of the possibility of rape pretty much 24/7 given his behaviour.

Get rid of him now! Seriously, you’ll end up hurt physically as well as emotionally soon. Walk away.

RyderWhiteSwan · 28/10/2018 08:25

RUN!

He's not a nice person. Break up with him. This is just him testing your boundaries, it'll get worse.

Well done.

change2019 · 05/11/2018 21:52

Well Done. Get your self respect, confidence and peace of mind back.

Miggeldy · 05/11/2018 22:08

Stay well away. He's a potential rapist.

Lunde · 07/11/2018 17:43

Well done for ending it - hope you are OK

Servalan · 07/11/2018 17:48

Well done for ending it. You've done the right thing. Flowers

MrsTerryPratcett · 07/11/2018 17:57

Good job.

llangennith · 07/11/2018 19:01

Well done op. I was a bit nervous about looking at this thread again as he sounded horrible.

Butterfly44 · 07/11/2018 21:12

Absolutely the right thing. He had no concern for your boundaries let alone care and respect! To want sex when your upset? He only thought of his own needs. Thank god you're out of it x

Olderbyaminute · 08/11/2018 12:16

Hot damn OP!

hellsbellsmelons · 08/11/2018 13:00

Mom2K · 14/11/2018 21:49

Stay Strong. Block and delete. Report to police if he turns up. You have ended it. Don't get dragged back in. No communication with him at all from this point forward. You can do it!

saltandvinegarcrisps1 · 14/11/2018 22:20

Well done OP and stay strong.

After your first post, I was about to write something like....tell the teacher.....cos it sounded so juvenile. But later posts are really alarming and you need to get out.

Mother196 · 15/11/2018 19:29

It's not bullying he's a man he doesn't get it, my boyfriend did that with me they're heavy handed but when I told him I don't like tickling and explained in too it he understood doesn't stop me from jumping on him for a fight though, never win but I try ..

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 15/11/2018 19:45

Keep well away. Nothing you have described is acceptable. He will probably keep pushing for a bit, but if you turn him down flat and never agree to meet him he will soon lose interest.

anonkneemouse · 15/11/2018 20:00

Please stay away from him. You've ended it so just keep walking forward now.

AlwaysSunshine81 · 18/11/2018 22:42

Found out he is on a dating site! Feel a bit shit about that, it’s not even been 2 weeks
