Everyone goes through love troubles whether it's serious or not but sometimes when it all gets too much and you feel that ya alone and that you have no one to turn to, you've got to realise it isn't the be all and end all and life does go on.
I've been in that situation before. I went out with this boy named Luke for 2 years and I thought that was the big one. I loved him more than life, we used to do everything together. He was in the year above me in school and people didn't agree on our relationship. He was always in trouble with the cops and always in fights, whereas I wasn't.
Everyone warned me not to get to attached to him but I couldn't help myself and even fell out with my 2 best mates 'cos of it.
Well we always used to have little quarrels and then one day we went out with a few mates and me and Luke had a massive bust up and I ran off crying. My mates came after me and managed to calm me down. When I tried to talk to him he just went mad and slapped me full pelt across the face, I couldn't believe it! I shouted at him and chased him and he just told me he'd had enough of it, then started to punch me. I was really upset and went home black and blue.
All my male mates were so angry with him but we sorted it out the next day and he was telling me how upset he was and I agreed to go back to him! 1 week later we had another argument but much worse, he got drunk and chased me with a knife, he caught up with me and held it against my neck and threatened me until one of my mates rescued me!
That was over a year ago when I was only 13 and it took me the best part of a year to get over him and I learned a very important lesson;
