I have experienced it, not as the victim, but the one providing it. Not to say I liked it or anything, I was unaware I was hurting My Beloved, and it cost me my most precious treasure, Her.

I have been abused in some way, in all my relationships, and that's why I ended them. Never physical, because I won't let anyone get away with that but emotional, sexual. I've also abused people accidentally, but also ended relationships due to that. I feel good about the fact I know when to leave, most don't.
My mom had the worst, her first husband beat her, and her second, my dad, was a mental abuser. Luckily she's free of both, and I learned how to spot mental abuse from my dad, and avoid it. It's really awful how many people I know are in abusive relationships. :(

I was surprised to learn to statistics in my sociology class and I'm still surprised looking at the poll results.

Me too, sometimes I wonder if it's really worth it to build a relationship these days.

Well, I would personally never question building a relationship based on statistics. =)

Eheh, well, me too :) But I guess it's getting harder to buld a relationship, because I see that most people don't care about having a serious one anymore (at least, in my country)

I don't really know. I want to say yes it seems that at times someone can be abusive in any manner. But then I just think it's normal relationship BS and so forth. haha so who knows? I guess I could be but not know it O.o
