I'm 17 years old and I have made the mistake of getting engaged. My fiancee is close to 20, I thought he was my dream come true. Currently he has been hitting me, throwing me against the walls, he tried to choke me several times, and worst of all, tried to stab me with a knife. I'm pretty much living in hell right now and I don't know what I should do. I love this kid so much, but it seems that, the more I love him, the more he hits me. I have more than 12 bruises all over my body. I have marks on my neck and my jaw. My wrist has been hurting a lot since he punched my jaw and twisted my wrist.
