A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I are very close, we spend heaps of time together, he has future plans to be with me, we have spent 7 years of being close friends, talking about everything.. Since we started dating we're constantly amazed at the differences between us, however. I'm starting to realise how different boys really are. And I really do think he would do anything for me...

Anyway the other night we went to a party. He spent the whole night, off with the boys, they were running around, swearing, saying crude things...arm wrestling.

At one point he swore at me. I heard him swearing heaps, speaking really disgustingly. One of the boys threatened to him him at one point... After which we stayed away from them.

My boyfriend told me that he was going to get tobacco, and I said, wait, as he went to run off. I said to him, don't go back over to where that boy is, and if you are going to come back and tell me. He said, don't worry I won't. I won't be long. He then ran off.

About an hour later, I realised he still hadn't come back, so I went over to this guy that had threatened hims place..and he was there.... he kept doing things like this.. at one point I was talking to him and he just walked off in mid sentence.

He's not usually like this... and the next day I didn't want anything to do with him... but he realised something was wrong and I ended up telling him what he did.. that I found his swearing really unattractive.. to which he replied.. don't you just find it offensive?... no...unattractve.

The boy said he would change...that he wouldn't act like that again..and that he didnt mean it..and that he loved me...et cetera.. and I felt a little better..

But now.. in his absense... I can't help but hate him for all the things he did...

He's a smart boy and he will change..he won't act like that.. I know that...

But does anyone have any advice on this? How do I make him realise how horrible he's been to me? Am I over reacting?
