vycess @vycess (1588) • Saudi Arabia 29 Jan 10

I always have back pain... what do you do when you have back pain? Maybe it's because I always face the computer and seat in a chair so long. Also When I woke up my neck and back hurts.

Do you think pysical abusing one`s partner is a sign of love?

damalimcpherson @damalimcpherson (251) • Jamaica 29 Jan 10

physical abuse of one`s partner is practice very frequently in today`s. Some persons believe that when they are being physically abused by their partner that is a symbol of love. what are your beliefs on this topic?

3 responses

purplerain01 I think that would be an odd thing to believe. Beating or hitting the one you love is a repulsive thing even if it is just a fleeting thought. If you love someone your hands should never be placed on them unless it is in a gentle and loving way. I know people...
