I agree with the posts about you needing to STAY CLEAR of a person who's already exhibited abusive behaviour towards you. So, for your own physical well-being, cut off all ties with him.
Now, i'm also concerned about the absence of any comments on mental health therapy. Clearly, your suicide attempt and other self-destructive behavior are indicators of some deep-seeded issues and i'm hoping that you have and/or ARE working with a counselor on those issues. And, even if you are, I can't belive that any mental health professional would counsel you that it would be a "good thing" for you to even CONSIDER meeting - let alone dating - this man again. So, if you're not working with a mental health counselor who has EXPERIENCE in working wtih gay men, CHANGE COUNSELORS!
Finally, and i know i may get bashed for this, but, if this man has done porn, all you have to do is look at the certificate at the beginning of each movie/clip and it will tell you when the recordings were made. If they were made before you dated, it was up to him to tell you and you to decide if you wanted to date a man who's done porn in the past. If he did (or is still doing porn) after you dated, then again, that's your call if you want to date someone who does porn. I don't judge people for the decision to do porn - however, beating you is INEXCUSEABLE and for that reason alone, i'd cut off all contact with him.
