As far as a mission goes, Pirate....Gazelam is correct. You can repent and still go. However, it seems like you have a lot of questions regarding the LDS faith, in general. It might be wise for you to get through school at this point.
It's also obvious that you do have a strong desire for a physical relationship. My advice would be to not let that desire override the other things that you think are important in a relationship. (Sorry, I'm a Mom...I can't help giving advice. LOL)
I wasn't planning to go until 2012 at least :S
I don't have a strong desire for a Physical relationship, I actually asked him the day before if we could stop because I don't feel ready to go on the pill and don't want to get pregnant and he was cool with that. I saw him today and we hugged for a long time. I still have feelings for him, but don't want him to think it is ok for him to speak to me the way he did.

Also, seconding BCSpace's shame on you. Especially since you weren't with this guy for long by my understanding. Be very careful. Being in that kind of relationship can create emotional ties with shoddy individuals. It's harder to sever the relationship at that point....especially for girls if those I know are any indication.
I wouldn't say abusive. I think the problem is how I grew up. I only saw violence and assume anyone even steps out of line a little will become like that. I don't really know what's normal and what isn't.
We were practically together for months before we even kissed, nothing was done without consideration and thought. I have known him for 2 years.
I am not justifying it by no means. I just know him. It's sad because a part of me knows he wont be abusive but I know alcohol can make him angry. (He hasn't been angry with me following alcohol though).
