Were you ever in an abusive relationship?

Aperson in his life some time or the other is in a abusive realationship,i think when you cant take it anymore you start abuseing.

I have never been in an abusive relationship myself. I've seen others go through them though. Abusive relationships are put up with because the abuser breaks the other person down so much, they're afraid to leave. They're threatened so they are afraid of what the other will do if they leave. Sometimes they are afraid that they won't be able to make it on their own because they've had to rely on them so much because often, the abused partner isn't given much freedom to do things on their own because the abuser is afraid they'll run and tell someone what's really going on. Fear is what makes them stay.

My ex husband was abusive. He was emotionally & physically. I was stuck with him in a country thousands of miles away from my family & anyone I knew. It lasted for a year when I got a divorce & went back home.

Yes i have been in an abusive relationship three years ago, we actually lasted for only 12 days. Hes really a possessive guy after the day we became a couple. He dont want me talking to my friends specially to my male classmates. He comes to our house almost 24/7 just to make sure that i dont lie about going out. he even use to shout at me if i dont obey him. Thats why im so thankful to my friends and my family because they really help me realize that its not worth it to by in a relationship like that. When i broke up with him on the 12th day via a text message, i felt relieved and had my life back. Im just thankful that my boyfriend right now is the excat opposite and i love him so much. I do have a friend who was physically abuse by his boyfriend before and i felt sorry for her because everytime she came to our class, i could see the bruises in her arms. She was in a four year relationship back then but had enough of it when he broke up with his bf a year ago.

I used to be, many years ago in my late teens. I ended up fighting back after he pushed me that hard down the hall that I put my shoulder out on the wardrobe in the room at the end. I dont think anyone should tolerate it, why be with someone when they abuse you and make you feel like crap. But I feel that they are tolerated by those people because they think they cant get anyone any better and that their partner will change...which never happens unfortunatly.

im totally against abusive relationship! no one i think will tolerated this. those who can tolerate must hv some reason for them.

Personally i have never been in any such relationship... And i am totaly against it... I dont know why people remain in such relationship... One factor might be love... but then after certain point of time even love will vanish if the other partner keeps abusing
