Abusive Relationships 

Keri quit the cheer squad, she decided it was easier to always be with Michael, since he was always asking questions and making a scene anyway. Upon noticing that Keri wasn’t happy, her friends began asking her if she was indeed being abused. Keri simply denied it and got angered and defensive. What could be the problem then?  Was she one instance of the abusive relationships that exist in the world today?

Abusive relationships occur every day. Most people only see abusive relationships as physical and tend to neglect the emotional aspect of it when in fact; the majority of abusive relationships are emotional. Relationships such as these can be mistaken for strong feelings based around caring or concern which can seem flattering, at first. A relationship should not be centered on jealousy, or controlling behavior. Relationships are successful because they are based on trust and love. If you suspect that you may be caught in this type of relationship, then you should act now. Abusive relationships can be emotional, sexual, or physical.

How can you be sure if you may be involved in an abusive relationship? Some other common signs could be…

·         Threats

·         Intimidation

·         Putdowns

·         Betrayal

·         Any type of hitting, kicking, slapping, etc.

·         Twisting the truth in order to have you take the blame

·         Having constant tabs on you

·         Always angry, or jealous

·         Unwanted sexual advances

These signs could seriously do damage to the male, and the female. So if this you, how do you get out?

First off, you are worth being treated with respect and love. It is hard to get out of relationship that is abusive in anyway, especially a relationship that has been ongoing for a longtime. The very first thing you need to do is find an adult that you can trust in. If the abuse has been physical, you need to get medical help, and you need to call the authorities. Assault is illegal, and you deserve better. Listen closely; do not isolate yourself from your friends. You have endless amounts of resources to help you, a doctor, counselor, friends, teachers, etc. These guys want to help you, let them.

You will not get out of this situation alone; you have people who love you in your life for a reason. Use these people; don’t be embarrassed to go to them. It shows how courageous you are when you use the help of your friends and family.  It is a group effort to end this situation, your phone book and resources such as that have many pages and numbers that you can call to get if you need to.  Don’t give up; you have a right to be happy.
