Sometimes people don't like the confrontation but need to hear it. <br /><br />I have been in a relationship where I was emotionally abused, I didn't wake up and realize it until the day he hit me. It's a tough thing to do but you have to walk away and get some help. <br />I hope that anyone out there that is having a rough time finds the strength to realize they are a person and worth more than the abuser.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13594812333087218854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-79178030451114383072010-07-14T15:49:14.449-04:002010-07-14T15:49:14.449-04:00Just another reason to buy Mary Kay.

I've had a blurb on my homepage for purchasing lipsticks for DV.

Some things she said gave me 'red flags' but when I asked her she said 'Oh NO. He'd never hurt me or the kids.'<br /><br />Well..fast forward a few years and she's DEAD! He killed her and then himself in front of their 2 girls.<br /><br />As a friend living in a different state, I only had a clue. I mentioned concern but she tricked herself into believing AGAINST HER INTUITION.<br /><br />Ladies...go with your INTUITION. If you think something is off...it probabaly is. Seek help, professional counseling/advise, and safety.Parsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18409440410210436267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3115690087140850973.post-44232377953490122472010-07-14T08:55:21.487-04:002010-07-14T08:55:21.487-04:00So many times when my husband worked in the DA'...So many times when my husband worked in the DA's office, a woman would come in and BEG him to DROP the charges against her boyfriend/husband!

Although the stats are extremely high for the victim being female the rate of male victims has increased dramatically also. <br /><br />The unfortunate misunderstanding is that it should is easy to remove yourself from a DV situation. Removing yourself from DV relationship is extremely difficult as the victim is in an "uncomfortable comfort zone." <br /><br />A true test for anyone assisting a victim is knowing the difference between hearing and listening.<br /><br />Thank you for posting this, and I totally agree, if it touches just one individual it was well worth the effort.jayne@~an eye for threads~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07392945035462143983noreply@blogger.com
