Your boyfriend is 100% correct that your scars are a possible means of verification. When asked by the doctors/police/coroner, if they are obvious, regardless of the cause, they are good identification marks. You should be glad that your boyfriend can think rationally about such a thing, this type of thinking makes one better at life.
You decided how you reacted, and you freely admit to KNOWING he meant no offense, and yet you still are punishing him. You have emotional scars, these scars are manifesting in you being emotionally abusive to your boyfriend by withholding affection.

You want to fix this? Then change how you are treating your boyfriend, then find a good therapist who can help you process your past trauma.
