I will absolutely not tolerate physical abuse. I have never had a boyfriend hit me, but I can honestly say that the first time would be the last. I know that many people that have been in relationships where there is abuse and stay- and I am not saying that they are wrong and that there aren't other factors involved. If I had kids and had a house, car, etc with the boyfriend and he hit me, it would be much more complicated to answer and not so black and white. I can say as of right now in my life with the support system that I have and having financial stability, I would not accept this type of treatment.

That's a good answer. I'm sorry that happened to you; nobody deserves to be treated like that! :]

No, I'm saying that I have never had that happen, but I do not condemn others who have stayed for their various reasons. With the circumstances in my life, would not accept any excuse for this behavior because I am lucky that I would have the means to leave.

I will not absolutely tolerate a one sided relationship. When I am inlove with someone I give the full force out of it.No doubt, no pretension. We must love because we mean it, we engage into a relationship because we want to give what we can as much as we want to get what we deserve, that is true and pure love.

I just got out of a very one-sided relationship. I loved him with my whole heart and I unfortunately only got any type of attention or affection once in a great while and it seemed like I had to force him... That's awesome that somebody else who sees that it should be on more of a give and take basis...

LIES! I cannot tolerate lies in ANY relationship, love or friendship. Where there are lies, there are problems. If the person you are with cannot be honest with you, there is no relationship. It is based on false information so it is untrue.
Physical Abuse is another. I have left someone because of it. If you have to resort to abuse to get someone to listen or stay, then, again, there is no relationship worth having.

Cheating, physical abuse, or disrespect of my daughter! Those three things feel like one big thing to me.

Those are very important, especially the respect of your daughter. :]

I would leave a person if he physically, mentally or emotionally abused me. I would also leave someone if they cheated on me. I wouldn't stay with someone who did a bad crime (like murder, or hurt a child)
No matter what the excuses they gave me i do not stand for any abuse or cheating they would be gone the same day no questions asked or answered!
Anything other than that and i think i could work it out with them (or at least i'd try!)
