Do You…..

       Sometimes feel scared of how your partner will act?

      Constantly make excuses for your partner’s behaviors?

       Always do what your partner wants you to do instead of what you want?

      Believe that you can help your partner change if only you changed something about yourself?

    Stay with your partner because you are afraid of what your partner would do if you broke up?

If you answered “yes” to any one of these questions,

It’s not love, its ABUSE.

at some point in their lives.
