The research had a qualitative methodology of second order, resuming certain grounded theory elements (open and axial categorization), with a saturation of information method. The research work had twenty-three university students who live in Bogota city, correspondents to the second, fourth, sixth and eighth semester of psychology from Santo Tomás University; the data collection was realized by four conversational scenarios (one for each semester), realizing the meanings, socio-cultural dynamics and configuration of the experience that they have constructed concerning the phenomenon; later one came to the transcription from each one of these then to realize the categorization (deductive and inductive) by means ATLAS.ti software. Once categorized conversational scenarios, conceptual maps were generated by every deductive category by his respective inductive categories and his elements, which could be related to the deductive category. The results allowed to expand the understanding of the narratives of violence in relationships of dating in college students through fifteen inductive categories that were categorized in detail and which allowed to understand by means of the stories, narrative processes currently running on the meanings of the experiences lived and told by the participants, and interactions with different people and contexts in such a way that it was possible to understand the forms in which these stories were established, they changed and modified in agreement to them lived history, as well as the new events, people and alternate stories that began to be part of the new experiences of the participants, so that they came to give a different sense its discursive practices, which had been organizing their interactions and everyday life in which it is possible to change and a new meanings configuration and opposite stories to the of the violence in dating phenomenon.
