Stop the Abuse Cycle

Abusive Relationships - A Step by Step Guide to Stopping the Cycle

By Michelle T Green


If you're in an abusive relationship (your partner is physically or verbally abusive), then I know how miserable you must be feeling most of the time. Even when things are good, you feel afraid that he's going to snap any second, and yet again you will be faced with another session of abuse from him.
So many women all over the world endure this kind of treatment, and many put up with it for years - and sometimes for the rest of their lives!

Personal Abuse - Not Always A Spouse

The landlord from hell, you say? Yes!  A landlord, who believes he's the only one with feelings, emotional discourse and a drinking problem. Well, he is the only one I've ever had to deal with, who has a drinking problem... at 11 PM when the rest of the world is sleeping, my rent is due tomorrow, so he's on the phone asking when he'll get it? Um... maybe never if you ever call back at this hour of the night!

Life isn't like this, in the world that glows in my mind. Only in the real world where idiot landlords feel they can call you whenever they want and harass you. Then there's the response to your refusal to be harassed. When you do need to talk to him, during real working hours, he won't answer the phone. Ooops!

He won't fix anything around the residence. Requests are met with, "That's your responsibility!"

If you have suggestions for fixing this problem, I'd be interested in hearing them.

Domestic Violence Often Unreported

Reasons Why Many Instances of Domestic Violence Go Unreported

By Maria Judy Libardo Nagamos


Are you aware that rape between husband and wife actually happens? Yes! It does exist! But sad to say, these incidents were kept secret between the couple. Violence being committed to spouses has gone unreported all throughout the duration of the marriage. To be specific on what type of domestic violence that was a lifelong ordeal for wives is the marital rape, that seem to burn out all the self esteem of a woman. Destroying all the hopes and dreams of having a happy and peaceful life, with a husband and children. But the wife chose not to leave her husband, not even filed any complaints against the assault inflected upon her womanhood. What are the reasons behind her keeping it all to herself? Why does the abused wife chose to let the incident slip without so much as a murmur against it? The heartbreaking events have stayed and kept secret between the wall's boundaries. "But why?", you may ask?

Abusive Teen Dating Relationships

Abuse In Teen Dating Relationships - Friends of the Abused and Abuser

By Linda Eagle Culbreth


Before you get into a serious dating relationship, you need to ask the following questions regarding friends. My husband has often said that "you either are or will soon be like your friends." He's right about that and a lot of other things as well.

Emotional Abusers

Emotional Abuse - How the Abuser Gains Control in an Abusive Relationship
By Dee Ver Hoeff
Have you ever witnessed an abusive relationship and wondered how the abuser gains so much control over the victim? The control and abuse sneak up on the victim. They aren't apparent, they appear slowly, in ways that don't allow a victim to recognize what is happening. Often an abuse victim begins a relationship feeling needed and strong. The abuser actually appears to need the victim, because they lack the strength to live separately.
