Abusive relationship??? Wtf???
Reread it and pay attention this time. OP's boyfriend was asleep when he hit her- some people have violent movements when they are in deep sleep. It's similar to sleepwalking. The relationship isn't abusive, but if OP's BF continues having episodes of violent movement while asleep, they should come up with an alternative sleeping arrangement, or see a doctor about it. The only thing that would be even possibly abusive is if he didn't feel even slightly bad about it happening, and even then it would be more of an indication that he may have issues with sympathy or compassion that he needs to work on.
