Teens are in an abusive relationship. And I’ve received a couple secrets regarding this subject and I’m not sure what else to do about it than to bring attention to it.
"I’m in a verbally abusive relationship with my girlfriend. She always tells me God is nonexistant and I’m a dumbass for maintaining a relationship with Him. She always putting me down, telling me how worthless I am. And since I’m a guy, there’s nothing I can do."
"I love my mom even though she abuses me mentally and physically everyday. She constantly harasses me, yet I still feel the need to be by her side when she has a problem. So my secret is I just wish she would love me back."
"It’s almost as if there are two sides to me. On the outside, around friends, family, etc, I’m a happy and outgoing person without a care in the world. But that’s simply a facade for the true status of my being. My father abused me physically for 2 years of my life before leaving my mother and leaving my life. He made me feel like I deserved to be beaten, like I had screwed up my life so much that I didn’t deserve to exist. I’ve been mistreated by many other people in my life and just flat out beaten down emotionally. Nobody would know it because I never let anyone know about my problems. I keep them to myself and I try to ignore them, hoping they’ll go away. But they don’t. There’s a rift between my two halves, I feel as if they are barely the same person. So yeah, I’ve got a secret. On the inside I’m scarred and broken and torn apart and and not a soul in the world knows it. Besides you."
"Be careful. Love in an incredibly dangerous thing. You’d be suprised what you let slide when you’re madly in love.
I let him abuse me on a daily basis for over a year just because I loved him.
Please girls, don’t let it happen to you. And if it does, just talk to someone, ANYONE, about it."
If you are in an abusive relationship, what ever side you are on, please go here. Just take a look at it, figure out what’s going on and GET HELP.

Awesome job, I have been a domestic violence advocate for women and children for 10 years, and I’m so glad to see the awareness of violence in teen relationships finally coming out. You said you weren’t sure as what to do about domestic violence, your doing alot by telling your story and letting girls know their not alone and information is power.
Many thanks to you!
