Or maybe you hate the very notion and think 'dem bitches DESERVE what they get.

Let's tawk.

Mental and emotional abuse is worse than physical abuse. It least with physical abuse, the marks will go away. Emotional damage stays around a lot longer than an actual wound does.

Yes, I've been in an abusive relationship. My advice to others would probably be to pay attention to your surroundings and your boyfriend/girlfriend's behavior. People tend to behave one way when you're dating, just married, etc. Somewhere along the line, they have to screw up and the real person comes out. That's what you need to watch out for.

Sassumomo, why are you curious about something like this?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I much rather go through physical abuse (not that I'm ever going to again!) because at least with that, you can fight back. However, with emotional abuse, you can't really fight back. There's way too many people in this world that have had stuff happen to them that take it out on their boyfriends/girlfriends.

I have no real reason to trust people in general, however, I do realize that there are people in this world that aren't like my ex and other people. I just don't feel like putting myself out there like that again because I might stab the next person that tries to put me through that again. I have various knives around me almost at all times, so I'm not playing.

Sexninja ~ The reason why I'm sorta secretive with certain things I say is because my ex had me stalked for awhile after I first left him. He had people watching me, coming up to me trying to be my friend and find out my business. I'm sure he's still up to his tricks because he tried it again recently.

Oh and another thing to watch out for, if you ever break up or threaten to break up with your boyfriend/girlfriend and they threaten to kill themselves...RUN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION IMMEDIATELY.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

And guess who's the first one they suspect? You see, as much as I'd like to turn loose some of my friends and family on him to "teach him a lesson", I'm the first person that will be suspected and probably jailed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

And also, don't let your abuser try to separate you from your family and friends. That's the only way they can get total control of you. My ex did this to me once. Thank goodness my family fought to keep in touch with me.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
