<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

Hello there Reddit. Me, 16f, been dating 16m for 8 months.

In that time he has become emotionally abusive... I will provide details if asked/needed about the things he has said. I need to break up with him but just cannot bring myself to do it...

I feel that, if I confide to one of my really close friends about it (15f) she may encourage me and give me the strength to do so. I want to tell somebody, as I've never told anyone about my situation and my relationship is viewed as perfect by everyone else, but in reality, it is so opposite :(

But the thing about confiding is, she's friends with him too... Better friends with me than him, but I'd rather not make her think badly about him over my problems, and I am one of those people that keeps everything to myself, so it would be difficult to bring myself to do so.

Anyway, my question is, would it be harmful and unhealthy to confide in her? I know she would be supportive of me and insist I break up with him, but should I bring myself to do so? I came close today but couldn't get it out.. I am young and don't want to be in such an unhappy/unhealthy relationship for much longer, I would like to enjoy my teenage years. Any advice about anything I have said is appreciated. :)
<bot>: My boyfriend is abusive. Will confiding in a mutual friend (her closer to me than him) help or harm the situation?
