if your in an abusive relationship is it worth enough to stay in that kind of relationship..you don't want to leave coz you love him/her so much

NO WAY! You may love them that much, but obviously the feeling isn't mutual if they show their "love" for you by abusing you. People are worth more than that and I believe they owe it to themselves to live a happy life with someone that cares for them like they should be cared for!

For me, the most important thing in life is Self respect. Even God does not have the right to abuse me.... so my lover.... definitely not....I will try to make it work (if in anger my spouse hits me once or twice).....however if it persists.. i will break the relationship at once....people who stay in physically abusive relationships get physical scars however the impact of mental abuse leaves you crippled for a long time mentally......the after effects are huge and the best part is many people cant realise they are going through mental abuse when some one is doing it to them.... So ppl nothing is worth your self respect and self esteem.... not even your kids... You have only one chance to live and the whole world to explore.... so live life queen size!!!!

There is always someone better out there for us. Any person that once was heart broken can say that. No one should be an in abuse relationship. Something is wrong with the abuser and the victim needs to get out of that relationship before it leads into something worst. TO the victim escaping from that abuse and relationship is going to seem and be hard but in the future they will see that it was worth leaving.

i think there are relationship that are worth dying for, but mine is not. i used to have a unfaithful, lazy husband who hits and hurts us physically and emotionally and yes plus mentally. we had four children and now i am a single parent and i dont know where he is. if a relationship is pure love and honesty then those kind of relation is a relationship worth dying for

it did happend to me before..., i thought everything will change if i do everything for him and for our relationship to work... and he always abuses me asking for money,lies,women... but still i didnt react and still stayed. but there is a time that i blacked out and asked him this question did you ever love me? he did answered me back with this i just used you like the other girls that i met.. don't you understand. i slapped him after that and runned away and cried asking why did i love that kind of person why did he exist. But that incident made me strong and made me know my limitations.. Yes if the person loves you.. No if the person just abused you and just wants you for some reasons.. and how about you would you rather stay in the relationship if the guy is the one who is going to make decisions for you?

If i was in an abusive relationship most deff. not worth dying for. You might love the person but its not worth dying over or even accpting the abusce from someone. In my opinion not to be mean about it but a lot of times i dont think love has a lot to do with relationships in that kind of situation i think its more of the person is actually to scared to try to leave for the fact or even fear of what could happen to them if they try to do so.In Most cases i think that you your willing to stand there and let someone be abusive to you then you either like it or you need some help with dealing with that kind of situaiton and know that no matter what no one deserves to be done that way no matter who or what you've done.

Hey aize003, It is a very sensitive and great discussion!! Anything is not worth our life. So dying is of course not a solution to any kind of problem or situation. But of course it is not worth living with the person who abuses you. If you truly love that person, put all you efforts to change his/her attitude towards you. Start a new charming life with him.. Even i would not prefer leaving the person if i was in your shoes. It is all because i love that person and i will be even more unhappy leaving him!! Have a great day!!
