My friend and I joke around all the time but there have been times where he would hurt me physically and emotionally.
Physically he would punch me, flick me in the back of the head with a pencil (that hurts more than it seems), and he would try to hit me in the face with a tennis racket and the ball.
He also threatens me like, "I will kill you if you don't like so-so" or "I will hit you with this bat *holds up wooden bat* if you don't yadda yadda yadda"
He calls me stupid, ugly, brainless, retarded, and he has made fun of the way I run (I'm not the skinniest person in the world)
Is he abusing me or is he just playing around and not realizing how its making me feel?
BTW, I have tried talking to him about it, and he stopped, but after about a week he started back up again.
