I know everyone gets a little out of control when they get angry, but my boyfriend calls me names when he's angry. He gets pretty verbal and he doesn't really let me talk.
Should I let it him calls me names? I never call him names.

You should never let him call you names. You never deserve to be made to feel badly. Everybody has their faults and knows where their own weaknesses lies, but nobody deserves to have their weaknesses thrown in their faces. Your boyfriend needs to find better ways of communicating when he's upset. I think you need to rethink your relationship, if he doesn't

I hate to say this, but you shouldn't stay with someone that abuses you on any level. There are far too many people that can make you happy without attacking you verbally. In a relationship unfair jealousy, name calling, controlling behaviour in anyway is simply unacceptable. And they are truly some of many character flaws of an unenlightened individual. Being mature is far more than age, status, having a steady job, ect.. If someone knowingly hurts you (emotionally or physically) on a regular basis, there is no reason to continue seeing them. Lots guys and gals out there that know how to respect others. The key really is the basis principals of Existentialism: that you must put yourself outside yourself to truly understand and feel how what you do and say effects others. When you find someone that is truly empathedic, they'll feel their words and actions as if they've had it said or done to them. That is the person you deserve. Nothing less, never settle for less.[/i]
