    For everyone saying "I'd never let a man do this to me": abusive relationships don't start this way. It's a build up of someone being manipulated into trusting someone, and the manipulation continues and the abusee doesn't realize they're being abused because they've already built a trust with the abuser. And when they do come to terms with being abused, there's often something tying them to their abuser so they can't "just leave," such as financial reasons, children, housing, and legal reasons that could hurt them more than the abuser. My heart goes out to all victims of domestic violence, women and children and men too. Y'all are stronger than you know.

      Very well said, a lot of people don’t understand and always say “I will never let that happen” or just have such negative opinions about the victim “choosing” to stay. But no one will ever understand until your in that position, I learned that the hard way.

    My mom was married to her first husband for 6 months. She left the night he hit her once -- ONCE!! She packed up and left!! He did everything he could to get her back, but she said, "NO" , and filed for divorce. She was my role model! She always said, "Don't EVER let a man define you or put their hands on you." I think my dad was a bit afraid of her. Lol! Because of her, I married my best friend and life partner -- 42 years now! We need more women like my mom!

    She opens the jewel box because it reminds her of her childhood, her parents and her family. Remembering the wonderful life she had before being with him. You always have to have something that calms you down after such abuse. I keep my parents photo permanently in my top drawer to remember the wonderful life i had before the storm I am in.

    people always say “just leave him!” no you cant just leave him because he could find you or force you to stay with him. people always say “fight back” sometimes its hard to fight back when a man is abusing you and controlling you. abuse is serious and no one knows what its like if they havent been through it. everyone assumes you could just run away and start a new life but its never easy to just run away or say no when you are in an abusive relationship. never assume that people can just fight back or just leave him because it will never be that easy

  • @nikorusakura1068

    This brings tears to my eyes because it is too relatable. My last relationship was extremely toxic and full of manipulation. My ex would hit me, force me to do things I didn't want to do, and "punish" me for things I did wrong. I stayed with him for a year, so insecure and scared that I couldn't even break up with him.
    One month after the toxic relationship ended, I met a man who swept me off my feet, and still does.. every day. 😌 I have never been so happy in a relationship in my life, and I am the happiest I have ever been. I am at peace.
    Update: I’m married to the same dude.

    I stayed in a abusive relationship for 5 years. It probably took a year for him to put his hands on me, and I was so "in love" that I was always blaming myself. I ended up cutting off all my friendships because whenever I spent time with friends, I somehow ended up being abused by him. I was hiding the bruises and hurt from my parents because I didn't want them to call the cops or get him in trouble. I completely cut everybody off and was stuck in a position where all I had was him. New Years Eve, we went to a party and I was sitting there talking to an old friend, and later in the night my boyfriend asked "why were you guys whispering"? and i replied that we were not whispering, we were just having a conversation. He had been drinking, which made him mean and even more abusive. We talked in the car, and he hit me upside the head a couple times and hit me in the face. My nose started bleeding, and he locked the doors as soon as I tried getting out of the car to go back inside to get help. He drove off, and left the party and I spent all night being verbally and physically abused. He took me back to his house, and made me sleep on the floor with no pillows, no blankets. Eventually everything calmed down, and he fell asleep after thinking I was asleep. I left, and never looked back. My heart hurts for people who are abused and can't find a way to get out of it. You are worth so much more.

    This brought me to tears bcos this is too relatable. Well, ive been with this guy for 3 years. When we started dating, he was fine. Sweet and caring. But then he turned abusive. He would hit me, and now my arms and legs have scars all over it. He even slapped me in front of a crowd and forced me to do stuffs i didnt want to. He would even asked me to lend him money. All i knew was, my life was never happy. I would cry and cry, every night asking God what is happening to my life. He would even control my life, as in what i wear, friends i hang out with, ny social media and outings with family. I swear, i nearly felt like killing myself. But i finally broke up with him, although he didnt agreed. 1 year later, i ended up with this totally sweet man. He swept me off my feet and he's actually my best friend since 2013 ❤ and he respects me and loves me. And he said, he has a crush on me since then. Im so happy and blessed that God sent me an angel like him. And we've been together for 7 months now ❤

      I have a longtime friend who left her abuser and stayed with me. I’m a man...she and I always had a romantic undercurrent to our relationship but she would always pick an abusive guy over me. Finally when she left her latest abuser to stay with me, our romance sparked and we grew closer than ever. One day when she was helping an elderly couple, we planned for me to pick up take-out for when she got home. I also got her flowers to surprise her...and I cleaned the house. I wanted her to know that a man could be considerate. However, she didn’t show up when we planned. I called her and she was back at the home with her abuser. She said the house was a mess and she needed to clean it. I said, I just picked up dinner like we planned, and I have a surprise for you, and I cleaned the house so it would be nice for you...yet there you are cleaning the house of a guy who is a slob and doesn’t even appreciate what you do, when I do value your contribution to the home. She told me I just don’t understand.

If you truly care for her then help her help herself and for her own sake, she needs to be whole and healthy in order to make healthy choices in her life and relationships. Another thing, look up love bombing... she may be mistaking your kindness for the grooming her abuser did at the beginning of their relationship, and honestly when you are in crisis(which she is) predictability(she knows what to expect from her abuser)will win over the unknown(what will happen with you, she is completely unsure of herself).

I hope that you can continue to be there for her, even if as a good friend, support and someone who knows what is happening is what she needs.

      @@thesehandsart I guess I didn't finish the story, though it is a long one, but ultimately she did return entirely to him, and turned against me...this even after he hit her in the face again. I agree, there was an aspect of her starting to not trust me, and misinterpret my intentions...so that she wondered if I might be as bad or worse than her abuser for relatively minor offenses in comparison...when there was no comparison (the "f.e.a.r." aspect of PTSD -- false evidence appearing real). As far as "she needs to be whole and healthy"...I disagree to an extent -- one thing that made her feel like she couldn't be with me was the pop-psychology idea that "you can't be with someone if you don't love yourself first"...so she felt like if she went from him to me she was doing something wrong, even though I would never treat her as awfully as he did. Also, the pop-psychology idea of "you have to be OK on your own before you can be with someone else". Well, she didn't have the financial means to be OK on her own. So, I blame and despise the therapist who told her these two things, because it enabled her to go back to the abuser instead of stay with the man who wanted to treat her well. I suppose those ideas are well-meaning, but I don't think true at all, and in this case was detrimental. And, as you said, choosing the familiar over the unknown for fear it could be even worse. Unfortunately she will not allow me to be there for her now...she is thoroughly enmeshed in a trauma bond where she now sees me as the threat instead of her abuser.

If a women abuses a man its ok to hit her back or push her and tell her to stop and if it's gotten to the point where it's really bad you leave her. Same thing for the women. I've always been taught in school to leave a relationship where I am abused I need to leave because that person does NOT love me.

      I agree and disagree, nobody should hit another especially in a relationship and I don't think anybody said it's okay for women to hit men, it just that men who are on average more stronger can most of the times physically restrain a woman or push her off in self defense. Of course there are exceptions like if she's attacking with a knife or she is bigger than the male and is beating him like Mike Tyson. Typically women have feel more powerless in that situation since the man is more likely stronger than her and can usually inflict greater damage though again there are exceptional cases.

I remember when I was in the 5th grade, I played the violin, as all 5th graders had to pick an instrument to play. When I was in the 6th grade in Middle School, I took a orchestra class but had trouble keeping up with the rest of the class. I didn't participate in the what they were doing. Well, the teacher that was covering the class held me hostage after class, screaming at me and berating me for at least 15 minutes for not participating. I just remember him yelling at me and shaming me, and the paralyzed feeling i had, standing there through that. And I recall one of the things said was something similar to "do you think it's funny?" I felt like it was my fault, anf that I deserved the abuse. That was the last day I ever set foot in a music lesson. It was sad that it happened that way.

Most people see things like this and (rightfully) think it's awful. But by showing only the most commonly seen form of abuse, at least in movies and PSAs, it makes it seem like it's not abusive if it's only verbal, or even just humiliation. That is my soapbox :)

      I agree that abuse is not only from males. While its true that most men are stronger than women, I do know of a couple of men who were indeed abused by their female spouses. The abuse often starts as verbal, and escalates. The women will sometimes either have children (if married) & or get pregnant (with a boyfriend) and use the children as leverage.
      The men understandably want a relationship with their children, or feel they need to stay now that the woman is pregnant.....and the women use that. They threaten that they will take the kids away, or call the police and lie that they are being abused. Also, some men were raised to never lay a hand on a woman...ever...so they don't hit back. The cycle continues, regardless. Its so incredibly sad that ANYONE abuses their spouses, male or female. No one deserves to be treated that way.

    "Oh tell me you love me". The feeling I got when I was with you. I knew you didn't mean to do it when you'd say you loved me after. I was dumb back then to think that's what love was. When I got too comfortable I couldn't escape. You always said I wouldn't find a man who love you like I do. But, if I didn't do this or that, then you would show me the hand. Telling me it's normal for couples to fight but we fought way to much. It was you who caused all the problems. I wish I would have understood what domestic violence was before meeting you. However, I have grown from the pain I once felt. I don't take shit from anybody now. I found a guy who treats me like a queen and has never raised his voice or put his hand on me to hurt me. You can find your person out there! But you have to let go of the abuser. He can no longer control your life unless you let his thoughts consume you. Everyone deserves happiness and love.

    Domestic Violence is a terrible scourge in our country. As a perpetrator of domestic violence, the road to recovery is long, painful and lonely. What's odd is that through the process, the 'triggers' that cause outbursts, have not changed, in fact, they are sometimes worse. Through counseling, support of family, research and focused study of it's root causes, I have learned how to control my anger. I'm not perfect, or a finished work, but I am now 4 years violence free.

    One night I was in my deep sleep, someone screamed very loudly that woke me up. I didnt want to wake up but I thought I should check so I opened the door. I saw the woman from the next door lying in a pool of blood and one man came out from the room. I yelled at him and woke other neighbours up so he was afraid when many people approached the scene. I called the police. I got to know later that he kicked her while she was feeding her baby. She just gave birth to her third child 3 months ago. I dont know how hard he kicked her even the main door was broken. He was put in jail. I also learned that he wasnt even earning money and his wife is the one who paid for everything. I feel for the children who had to see that abusive father. Such a shame!

    The real problem here is that people focus all there energy on who is abused men or women or who is abused more men or women.
    I want to point out it doesn't matter who is abused more it matters that it happens every single day to poor people and many people say why don't they just leave well the fact is that they don't know how the only thing they can think is I love him/her he/she will change. They have been abused for a long time. to start with They probably didn't notice because controlling and abuse start small and distroy the persons confidence and self worth so when the physical abuse starts they blame themselves.
    To help stop abuse we need to make people aware of things that happen early on so they can get out before this happens.
    This video while showing abuse didn't show how to stop it. The end should of shown her leaving not covering it up and accepting it because that's not the right thing to do.
    I was a victim of abuse and didn't know the warning signs and after the worst beating I finally left with help from others it was hard to do but I understand how they feel they cannot leave.

When she is mad at my dad for texting another girl for exactly 3 minutes and just saying hello to the girl that’s all nothing else, My mom hits my dad for that, We are in middle class but like on the

The fact is as you said he can’t run from my mom. He has only hit her three times comparison to her hitting him like idk one thousand? She has made him bleed and weep for help. She made a 46 year old man cry for heavens sake.one of those hits he did gave my mom only a little bruise. The next we’re only a push and a slap(not to the But or face).

I left only after he cut some of my hair out, threw away my clothes, and my makeup away hoping to make me less attractive to other men. If they looked at me in his eyes it was my fault. People may laugh and make fun of you for staying because they're ignorant as to why you do but until they experience it first hand they cannot and will not understand. It will hurt for a while after leaving but that pain is only temporary. If you want to live please get out.

    Im here to share my testimony! I had encounter on July 31, 2021 late night in my bedroom. I had just left my abusive husband ( threatened to kill days prior) police wouldnt do nothing when he showed up at my house because "he didnt touch you" although there was history of TPO's and police reports. That night in bed I was gripped by intense anxiety. I was terrified he would show up and hurt me this time. I was laying in bed crying and groaning of the fear. I then heard a clear audible voice in my head that was loud enough to hear over my sobbing. He said " Do you not believe God creator of heaven & earth is more powerful then your husband? I replied through my tears "Yes, Yes I do!" I then cried out to God to help me and protect me and I would live for Him. At that moment a peace that cant be described came over me and I fell asleep the whole night. The next morning I woke up with peace and knew everything would be ok. I know it was the Holy Spirit because at that moment it never occurred to me to cry out to God. After that encounter I have a strong desire to live for Jesus, read bible, pray and live a holy life. My love for Jesus has grown, my faith and a intimate relationship with my Savior is growing deeper by the day❤️‍🔥 Hallelujah. Praise God.❤❤
    John 6:44 and that is what happened that night to me.
    Since that night everything between my husband is peaceful, still separated but peaceful. My husband never returned to my house nor has laid hands on me. If you knew my husband you wouldnt recognize him now!! It was all God. Hallelujah to the highest
    Theres no better love then Jesus! Nobody, $$, career or material possessions can fill the holes and heal the heart!

I tried making him accountable for his abuse but he just turned it around and made me feel like i was the problem. Its not just a matter of being hit and hurt, you get brainwashed into accepting it.

You don't realize that it isn't just a normal thing that happens to everyone. And if you do start to question it, they manipulate you into thinking you're a crazy person who can't think straight. It sounds ridiculous but it's true and it happens. Understanding that you can trust your own thoughts and that it ISN'T normal is the first step to getting out of it.

    Let me say one thing and one thing only: if a man ever hits you or hurts you purposely, he does not deserve a second chance. It's not "because I love you." He's not a good man, and no matter how in love you are, you need to see that it's not healthy and not okay.

    Being madly in love is understood.. but love comes with respect, If your partner doesn't respect you better leave them alone to die..

    No. It's not always as obvious as this. My domestic abuse experience started small, very small. 'Why aren't t you wearing socks Around my house Zenya? I don't want my floor dirty.' 'What are you doing that for?' 'Your face always looks like there's something wrong.' It then turned into 'why are you talking to them?!' ' why are you cooking me this, can't you do anything right?, are you that stupid you can't listen?'

    My boyfriend used to treat me like shit under the influence of booze for 6 months. Dont be afraid to speak out be heard and dont let them treat you like a human punch bag. Theres always a way out dont feel so useless. Id know as ive been in this position and its a nightmare come true. Dont put up with shit like you deserve it, you deserve respect and if they cannot give it dont stand for it fight back!

    I will never understand the need to birate or abuse a partner. Man or woman. I feel terrible for epically men, they suffer in silence out of humiliation, pride, and just because it's the "normal" for a woman to hit a man because she can't hurt him, right? Men can very well be in this too and I hope one day, there is a domestic violence movement for men and they finally get to speak against their abuse without embarrassment, or shame. If you're a man reading this and your partner is hurting you, just know like women you don't deserve it either, please get someone and speak out. Trust me I know, was bitten, kicked, punched, pushed while pregnant I've been that women, I've been through a lot more. I hope one day to speak out for ALL abuse victims. Male or female.

    For the not really familiar or whatever with domestic violence i really liked this film because i think it kinda showed The cycle of the abuse, the abuser may act lovingly, build trust, and even manipulate the partner in the beginning this is the Honeymoon stage. Once time progresses the abuser will act nicely but then tension builds up and the abuse will happen sometimes after they may manipulate and act lovingly, apologize, promise to never do it again and then act lovingly for a while.. Then the tension builds up again and the abuse starts again and the process repeats, sometimes (please do educate me and correct me if i am wrong about anything) the abuser even gaslights their victim about their (the abusers) actions or the victim might have something holding them back from leaving. (Or the abuser might blame the victim saying the abuse would not happen if they didn't do something "wrong" or just blame the victim) Maybe the fear and threats of the abuser, or divorce and maybe losing custody, or financial issues etc. "My *name* left after getting hit once! We need more people like them!" I saw this comment over and over again, honestly good for them but that is not the reality for most cases and it is quite ignorant. Please get educated, if you're gonna be ignorant okay then get educated and don't be anymore.

    I am man who was verbally abused, gaslit, my wife hid money from me etc. When I left I slept in homeless shelter, then the woods. All of this was after 7 weeks of radiation therapy for prostate cancer. Had I been a woman I could have found shelter in the town I lived in. There were no such places for me to go to. I ended up going back when I was told I was Terminal. This didn't stop the abuse. Now I have survived cancer that every doctor said does not happen. Finally I have broken free of her. Can we depict the reality of abuse for both sexes please. It would have been nice to have some support.
