Thankyou for replying. and when he does hit me, i think of my baby. Sometimes after hes done with me, i lay there and ask myself how can a guy who supposedly loves me hurt me in such a way, especially, me being pregnant with his child? i ALWAYS wonder is there even hope for a better family... me, him, and our unborn child? I pray to god every night to help us, EVERY NIGHT! i dont know why i suffer this way, i dont think i deserve it, even if sometimes i mouth off, still, i deserve to LOVED, DONT I??

You do NOT deserve to suffer at his hands. No one does. You DO deserve to be loved and RESPECTED. He is not respecting you. He is putting you and your child at risk. I would definately get in touch with Gumdrop Girl. She's a fantastic resource and can put you in touch with people who can help you out in more direct ways.
Hugs.

Everyone deserves to be loved, never question that. And you don't deserve to be hit no matter what you do. I wish you the best of luck w/your future and the future of your family, whatever it may end up being.

No one deserves to get hit and if a guy is hitting a girl its called abuse.The only way to stop him is to get him and urself counceling and if it continues after that you should ethier break up with him and or call the police on him that might sound harsh but abuse is not good and u should take action against it.

Couples' counselling is for shared problems, not issues like abuse which are entirely one partner's responsibility.
It's not realistic to hope that counselling will stop someone from being abusive - you need to get out now.

FYI, as you are still a legal minor by a serious long shot, you can simply call children and family services and be aided, all around, both in getting out and getting a family to care for you.
I'm not sure of what your family situation is, but at 15, it's not even legal for you to be sexually active or to be living away from home without a legal guardian. So, in this respect, you actually have more resources than an adult woman in your situation would, and I seriously encourage you to take advantage of them. If this person is a legal adult, you have even more legal leverage.

hiyeh, just to add a little - i agree that you should get out as quickly as possible. but since you say you love this guy i realise this may be easier said than done. do it anyway - if you get help, people will come and see him too. the thing is that he probably needs help too, and the best way to get it to him is by leaving and telling somebody this guy exists and needs help. good luck babe....
