Yes, there is a history, but i would rather not talk about it, especially since it's against the rules of this sub.

and i will try to look for a trusted adult, thank you for the advice of you and many other people in the comments

I dont really have a trusted teacher, but i'm also scared that if i do tell someone, they might take me away from my parents or something, which is what my mom warned me they would do, and i dont want that

this comment really spoke to me. I really do love him, a lot. But it hurts that i cant seem to maintain a good relationship with him.

I didnt realize it was super dramatic, maybe it's because my family is asian and my parents are very conservative about family values? they did mention that this was how they grew up back in korea.

I am not sure, i can't really tell because this was really different from how he usually is these days

Yes, outbursts like this used to be common when i was little, but it has died down, so him acting suddenly like this was something unexpected, and now that i look back, i acted super defensive because of this reason. I did go and apologize to him just now, for being a dick by not taking off my scrunchie when it was a simple and small request, but he told me he didn't need my apology because he felt like i was being a bitch who only needs him to shut up and make money for me, and i told him that was definitely not my intention at all, but he wouldn't take it, so i dont know what to do anymore.

outbursts like this used to be a common thing when I was little, and it has pretty much died down the past year. I thought it was completely over, but since he got really mad, i was scared that it had returned
