I just can't understand it. A man you think you love and think loves you gets increasingly controlling long before he first hits you. The need for him to control you is the first sign. Why let it get beyond that? But women do....

micheleg4153 I don't mind at all. It's all up to you to do what you think is best. It's nice though that you are conscious of what is occuring in your relationship and that you want to do something to make it better. I applaud that. Much luck and happines to you.

micheleg4153 It doesn't sound like you're the abuser here. It sounds more like a dissatisfied girlfriend/wife who knows how to push your buttons and likes doing it. You had an arguement. One of many, it sounds like. You both yelled at eachother and said things in anger...

micheleg4153 If I could edit #2 then I would, but only to soften what I feel is still true. You don't deserve to be hit, ever. My question to you is why stay after the first time? It only makes it harder to leave if you wait. Why would you think I didn't know anything...

I am in my late 20s, but I still don't have a driver's license. Everyone says that I need to get it before I get too old or I'll be afraid to drive. But I'm already afraid to drive, especially the way people in this city drive....

micheleg4153 If transportation is not a problem for you, then you don't really need to drive but I'm curious as to why you would be afraid to do so? It's a good idea to learn to do it and to have your license because a. you may need to go somewhere where a bus...

Valentines Day! You either love it or hate it depending on whether or not you're single during that darn holiday. I have spent far too many V-Day's single so mostly, I hate it. Just seeing all those happy couples, bouquets...

micheleg4153 I'll say a prayer for you that if and when he does it again, you'll still be physically able to walk away. What are you waiting for? You said yourself that it has happened many times. I'm really glad to hear you are financially prepared to go but what if...

micheleg4153 You're right about it being deeper. I would never make light of a subject that I feel so strongly about. Again, i would like to re-iterate that I don't think any women deserves to be hit or abused. I feel that the women herself, the one goes back into the...

micheleg4153 I'll tell you who I am. I am a child who grew up seeing her father hit her mother in front of all of us kids. It's a sore subject and I have asked my mother many times why she stayed after the first time. Her only answer was she didn't know how she would...

My cat, Samu, is definitely a curious cat. He likes the camera and will put his face right in it. My other three don't like the camera and shy away from it. Show me your cutest cat pictures! C'mon, let's see them!

micheleg4153 She must be one beautiful kitty. Samu seems to think everything is all about him and he's insanely curious about things. I think he's inspecting it all to see if it's food actually. You know, the only time I see him really run is when i shake the pounce...

micheleg4153 I'm so sorry you're having such a rough time. He sounds very insecure and that he is trying very hard to control you because he fears losing you. The sad thing is, he is pushing you away all by himself. There really isn't anything you can in this situation...

micheleg4153 I'm not a child psychologist but I think four may too young to be critical of creative skills. Maybe you could have asked her why she chose to use only one color instead? Afterall, many artist do monochromatic paintings and she might be a genius in the...
