There are a few different things that I have been compelled to write about… today I think I’ll tackle the most recent of stories I’ve heard from friends… people who purposely put themselves through the stresses and traumas of domestic abuse.
I just don’t understand how anyone can do it…
You’re in a situation where your partner, be it boy friend, girl friend, wife, husband, etc… feels that its necessary to beat up on you, physically, emotionally, verbally… how do you stay? How do you not at least fight back? And how can these people put their kids at risk?
I do understand you think you love someone… but you have to ask yourself… why do I love this person? How can I love this person? Are you REALLY in love with them or just afraid of being without, alone?
I just don’t get it… people are seriously injured and even die almost every day because of domestic violence… you hear about it all the time… they pretty much beat into our heads these days what the warning signs are… are people in these situations really in that much denial?
I was hit by a boy friend once… and it never happened again… I didn’t let it…
I’m open for debate on this one from people who’ve seen it happen, had it happen… I just want to try and understand what goes through people’s minds when they’re in situations like this…
