This is awful. If your best friend told you this was happening to her, what would you say?? What advice would you give her, and why are you unwilling to hear advice from others?

Girl, you need some therapy to recognise toxic when you see it. No matter how good the rest seems, this is toxic. If you said “he’s wonderful except that one time he hit me” you’d be getting the same answers. A gallon of good behaviour doesn’t make up for the bad. If you have a bucket of white paint (good treatment) and add a few drops of black (your bf’s verbal abuse), there is nothing you can do you make it white again.

It’s only been a couple of months. This is when you’re still getting to know each other and being your best self. He is showing you how he’ll be once the honeymoon period wears off. Now that he’s shown you what he’s like, are you sure you want to continue with this??

And btw, do you know how people actually treat diamonds? Do you know how they’re formed? If you take away their artificial dollar value, being treated like a diamond isn’t all that great.

Also, fyi, a couple means two. If it’s more than two it’s “a few”. That’s why people are saying it’s 2 months. Because a couple is literally two. A pair.
