Am I in an abusive relationship? or am I being dramatic because im pregnant?

[Anonymous]

I'm 7 months pregnant, with my boyfriend 1 year. We have been fighting recently over stupid things but I feel like they are being heightened due to hormones and stress from the both of us. But my boyfriend treated me horrible yesterday in a restaurant, after I paid for everything. We were talking about the baby and he didn't like something I said, he was shouting at me, fighting, being rude, put me down, and people were looking at us. He threw the food and stormed out, I followed him. He didn't speak to me in the car going home, around 10pm he says "come here and suck my ****" he literally wouldn't stop at me, kept taking it out. He knew I wasn't in mood and I was upset. I knew he would get more mad if I didn't, so silly me did it. I just went to bed after. Now the next day he's tryin to be normal. Something In my gut is telling me something is so off here. Thanks for reading x

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation, and it's important to take your feelings and concerns seriously. It's difficult for me to definitively determine whether you are in an abusive relationship based on the limited information provided, but I can offer some insights and suggestions.

The incident you described, where your boyfriend shouted at you, fought with you, and treated you disrespectfully in public, followed by his inappropriate behavior later, raises red flags. No one deserves to be treated that way, regardless of the circumstances. It's concerning that he escalated the situation and engaged in sexually coercive behavior, making you feel pressured to comply with his demands.

Abuse can take many forms, including physical, emotional, verbal, and sexual abuse. It's important to trust your instincts and pay attention to how you feel in the relationship. If you consistently feel belittled, controlled, fearful, or disrespected, it may be an indication of an abusive dynamic.

Consider seeking support from trusted friends, family members, or professionals who can help you navigate this situation. Organizations specializing in domestic violence or relationship counseling can provide guidance and resources. They can assist you in assessing the health of your relationship and offer advice on how to proceed.

Remember, you deserve to be treated with respect, kindness, and consideration, especially during this important time of pregnancy. It's crucial to prioritize your well-being and the well-being of your child.
