Answer
Dear Varsha,
I appreciate your love for  him.However,as a psychologist who is committed to  God's  ways, I wish to present facts to you.
I have  seen  several cases that are  similar to you,who made wrong decisions   because of  emotions and  ended  up in tragic  life  situations.
In my analysis I see that there are  umpteen chances of your  BF becoming  highly abusive in the future.
I  suggest  saying 'good bye' to him.

Wrong decisions made  will put you  to suffering  till the  end of life.

Have  a nice  day
